New Catalog Open House Projects and More

 Hi!  I had great fun on Sunday hosting a new catalog open house with my friend Connie M!  It was so wonderful to be able to spend time sharing new products, creativity, and some great conversations and laughter with the friends who were able to join us!   Here are some photos of the event and displays:








I'd found some fun flowers at a grocery store that were a natural color and had died them using the new In Color refills and some of the new core color ink refills:




We had three make and takes projects.  Connie had designed a card featuring the new Bright and Beautiful Suite Collection in combination with the Circle Sayings Bundle.  Here are some of the cards that were made:






Another make and take was to make a note card size version of one of the samples with the Countryside Inn Suite Collection from page 62 of the new catalog.  I also added an element from the Cheerful Daisies Bundle, which we embellished with the some of the new Metallic Enamel Effects (in addition to the Gold & Vanilla Satin Edged Ribbon and a strip of Distressed Gold Specialty Paper):



We also had a quick tag project with the new In Colors.  We started with a piece of the new core color, Bubble Bath, cut with Tailor Made Tag dies, and layered on pieces cut from the In Colors (Copper Clay, Boho Blue, Mild Mauve, Wild Wheat, and Pebbled Path) with the Paper Florist Dies:





We also had some doorprizes, and those were decorated with some tags made with the Crafting with You Bundle (the frame is cut in new core color Pecan Pie, and the flower images and message are stamped in new In Colors):




Hope you enjoyed this glimpse into the party!  And, if you are in my area and didn't get to make it this time, hope you'll come join us at the next one!  

Thanks so much for visiting my blog!  Please let me know if you have any questions about any of the projects or products used in them -- I did provide links to some of the products in my online store if you would like to check those out as well.

- Michelle
