Celebrate Today!

Good morning!

In cased you missed my announcement yesterday….

The NEW 2015 Occasions Catalogue and Sale-a-bration brochure are now live!

You can see them both here:

2015 Occasions Catalogue & Sale-A-Bration Brochure

I've got another cute card to share today. This card uses the 'Celebrate Today' stamp set on page 11.

I also used the matching Balloon Framelits dies-which you can get in a bundle with the stamp set (SAVINGS!!), the new Birthday Bash Specialty Designer Series Paper and the new Birthday Bash Designer Washi Sheets!

I die cut the balloon out of the striped Washi sheet- so easy! Notice how it's a bit transparent…I wanted to leave it like that so you could see what the Washi sheets are like, but I think next time I would die cut a matching balloon out of Whisper White and stick the Washi balloon on that first before adding it to the card- it would stand out a bit more and I could have mounted it on dimensionals too!

What do you think? I'd love to hear which stamp set caught your eye from my sneak peeks 🙂 There are lots more sets I haven't shown you. Don't forget to download the new catalogues and have a gander! Enjoy!

Thanks for stopping by today!

***A NOTE RE STAMPIN' GALS GONE WILD:For most of us, January is a month to reflect and make changes. Connie and I have been reflecting on what we want from 2015 too. One of those changes is to shake things up with our businesses.

Connie and I have had a great time with SGGW and we hope that you have enjoyed it. We had a blast sharing with you every Wednesday but we decided we each wanted to try some new things this year so we are no longer going to be posting on each other’s blogs. No, we are not mad at each other or had a falling out. In fact, far from it! We are very good friends! We just wanted to do some different things in 2015.

Connie will run the SGGW Facebook group. There’s some great sharing going on and we don’t want to see that stop so to some degree, SGGW will continue. 🙂
