Stampin' Up!® 2023 Sept-Dec Mini Catalog preview

Coming September 6!

It's almost here!!  Customers can begin ordering products from the 2023 Sept-Dec Mini Catalog September 6.  I'm calling this the Holiday Mini....it's full of so many beautiful, whimsical, and classical Holiday products.  As well as lots of elements you'll use to craft all year long.   I know you're going to love it.

Starting SEPT 6:  I will have the digital version of the Catalog here on my blog in the panel to the right.  You will be able to download & flip through the pages to your heart's content.  

How about a sneak peak at one of the Suites from the upcoming Mini?

Beary Christmas Suite is going you have you smiling the entire time you craft.  So cute!!  The Suite includes the Beary Cute Bundle (a stamp set + punch.  Yes, don't you love punches?!)  It also has 12"x12" Beary Christmas DSP, embellishments, a ribbon pack and Memories & More Card Pack, and Memories & More Cards & Envelopes.  Purchase the entire Suite with one Item #, or select just parts of the suite, as you like.  It is on pages 22-23 of the Mini Catalog; check it out starting Sept. 6.  Colors in the Suite are Real Red, Old Olive, Balmy Blue, Misty Moonlight, Night of Navy.

Let me show you the card I made using this Suite.  The fun-fold layout was inspired by Patty Bennett.

The card unfolds as below:

 ...and fully opened:

I'll have all the details & another example of the layout coming up soon.  Basically, the card is created by cutting a piece of card stock in half, scoring one half at 4 1/4" and scoring the 2nd half at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"; then, after adding DSP & die-cutting the circle on the card front, gluing the two pieces together.  Punch a bear, adhere to the previously die-cut circle, and adhere this to the small flap, making sure the bear-circle is centered through the "window."

  See below for a view from the top.

Don't you love that cute bear & his warm sweater?  The punch coordinates directly with some bear images in the DSP, making this fast & easy:  just punch, adhere & go!
