and

Holiday Catalog Sneak Peeks!

in this tour.

You have probably joined me after visiting Cindy Major's blog, and you can click on the "next blog" link at the bottom of the post to continue on the tour. (All of our projects will be live no later than Friday morning.. if you are joining me Thurs. night, you may need to check back tomorrow if all links are not quite working yet.)

This was one of my Control Freak convention lunch swaps.. made with My Digital Studio! Speaking of My Digital Studio… check back in a couple days for more info about My Digital Studio 2 !! I got to play with it at convention and it is aaaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing!!!!

inside of my MDS card:

and my 2nd lunchtime Convention swap, created with the awesome Postage Due stamp set, found on pg 108 in the Stampin' Up! catalog.. also featuring 4 new Holiday catalog products… striped ribbon (pg 26 holiday catalog) and ribbon slides (pg 31 holiday catalog), plus the new Friendship Preserves stamp set and matching framelit dies (pg 30 holiday catalog):

My 3rd item for you today, is my 3-d item, a flower pin I created using some new products from the Holiday catalog: the AMAZING new Scalloped Tulle Ribbon and the Gumball Green Core'dinations paper embossed with the new Lacy Brocade embossing folder (all found on pgs 4 and 6 in the Holiday catalog), and the new STICKY ROUNDS on pg 31. NEED a holiday catalog? contact your demonstrator or email me: pattystamps@comcast.net

I will be posting step by step photos for this pin project in early August.. check back next week!

Enjoy the rest of the tour as you visit Connie Babbert's blog.

Patty, the pin is stunning and your MDS cards are too! I don’t think I’ve said this before, if I have, I’ll say it again. I think it is so sweet that your husband not only supports your su! business, but that he also works to compliment it! Definitely a keeper!
