Get Excited about the Holiday Catalog!
It’s almost that time of year for our holiday catalog, and I am so excited to share it with you! Just one of the perks of being a Stampin Up Demonstrator is we get to see the catalogs early! On July 23, Stampin Up will launch the holiday catalog PDF for Demos to view ONLY!! We will be able to make our wish lists ahead of time. We will not only will you get to see the entire holiday catalog, but we get to enjoy videos about cross-selling and product training, as well as a special video by Sara and Shelli! How awesome is this??? Great right? But that's not all! 
On August 1, Stampin Up will allow Demonstrators to be the first to preorder. Why?? So we can shop and try out the new products to create classes workshops and much more for you to see before the catalog goes Live!!!
I can’t wait to help you make your holiday season the most wonderful time of the year!
Happy Stampin

If you lose your way while hopping, you can scroll down and see the list of hoppers! Did you just come from Chery's blog? Wasn't her projects amazing!!! Be sure to continue to Anne Marie's after you finish!

Today I am certainly taking advantage of the anything goes theme with a little Christmas in July!! It's never to early to start planning cards and gift packing! I have prepared for you a Christmas card and a little treat bag. I found these adorable bags at Walmart on clearance! They a good size!!! The rest of products used are all current through Stampin UP.
I used the Dashing Deer Stamp set from Stampin Up on both the giftbag and card.
I stamped the deer in Shaded Spruce, the greeting in Real Red and I colored the little holly strip with Real Red and Shaded Spruce markers and cut this out using the Layering Circles dies.
I wrapped the bag in the Poppy Parade Textured Weave Ribbon and finished it with a bow!

For the card I added the matching Detailed Deer dies and cut out a deer. The card base is Shaded Spruce layered with Whisper White. I used the Layering Squares dies to cut out the 2 squares. I also stamped a deer in Real Red and cut it out with the matching die.  I used the Woodland Embossing Folder and embossed on a piece of vellum and then sponged over the images with Sahara Sand ink. I also added a little Wink of Stella over the trees to make them glitter, unfortunately you can't see it in the pictures!.

I hope you enjoyed the projects I have prepared for you! I'd love to hear what you think, so please be sure to leave a comment below! 
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Happy Stampin
Happy Christmas in July!

THE ESSENCE OF FLORALS
​Can’t get enough florals? Neither can we! With the Floral Essence Bundle, you can give the joy of floral to everyone! These stamps and punches are beautiful for any project, whether it’s creating a watercolor project like we did in the Blissful Future sample, or adding some punches and embellishments as in the All Days Are Beautiful sample. Or if you really want to get into the flower power, you can recreate the tin in the sample with one of our copper tins, Organdy Striped Ribbon, and the Perennial Flower Punch—and all of these are included in the Perennial Essence Suite!

HAND-PAINTED AND TIMELESS What’s the next best thing to having one of Claude Monet’s paintings hanging in your home? Our Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper! One of our product designers, Julie Alusa, went to New York and was so inspired by Monet’s works of art, she decided to paint her own masterpiece. In her own words: “While I was admiring Monet’s massive water lily paintings at the Museum of Modern Art and Metropolitan, I was inspired to do a Monet-esque page in the Designer Series Paper of impressionistic water lilies.”So now you can have a little taste of Monet with this beautiful Designer Series Paper. Hand-painted and gorgeous, this paper will go great with any project—even if it’s just for yourself!
