Stampin' Up! Occasions mini catalog

I am interrupting Weight Watcher weigh in because I wanted to share with you the new Occasions Mini catalog from Stampin' Up! I have been so excited about some of the new product in this release. You can download the PDF of the catalog Download Occasions09_US .

Some of my favorites

• Page six Great Friend
• Page eight Scallop Oval punch
• Page 16 Matchbox Bigz XL die (BigShot)
• Page 17 Matchbox Messages

The Matchbox die is incredible and there are so many ideas that I have for this - here is a sample project from our stamp club

Supplies: Stamps (Matchbox Messages), Paper (Old Olive, Bella Rose DSP), Ink (Red Riding Hood), Ribbon (Red Riding Hood Tafetta), Acrylic sheets

I really love the colors of this card and it uses the new set Great Friend

Supplies: Stamps (Great Friend), Paper (Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss, Basic Gray), Ink (Basic Gray, Kiwi Kiss), Punch (Spiral)

I really like the versatility of the Top Note die cut - look at all of these ideas!!!

Supplies: Stamps (Great Friend), Assorted patterned paper, Ribbon (Baja Breeze stripped Grosgrain), Ink (Pixie Pink)


This one features the Manhattan flower impressions die and the new scallop punch


Cute card using the owl from the new set Forest Friends


This is my favorite project! Supplies: Top Note (die), Stamps (Oval All, Forest Friends), Punch (word window, large oval, Scallop oval), Ribbon (real red, chocolate chip) For this you use two Top Notes and in between is the bottom of a small bag (purchased at Party City). Creative packaging made easy!
