So Saffron Flower

Today's card was inspired by one I saw while browsing cards online.  I was looking for ways to use the new Blossom Punch from the Occasions Mini Catalog and this flower is similar to the one I saw.  I punched out three blossoms then, cut them apart to make petals.  I used my So Saffron Stampin' Write Marker to add the lines on the center of each petal.  For the center of the flower, I used the 1/2" Circle Punch and covered it with Crystal Effects and sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds over it while still wet.

Stamp Set:  Word Play; Inks:  Soft Suede, Stampin' Write Marker So Saffron; Card Stock:  So Saffron, Whisper White, Attic Boutique; Accessories:  Modern Label Punch, Large Oval Punch, Blossom Punch, Jewels Basic Pearls, Crystal Effects, Dazzling Diamonds, Stampin' Dimensionals

I''m loving the new product in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  Tomorrow I'll show you another card made with the new Hearts Collection Framelits. You're going to love them!


Until we meet again...

Outlined Occasions Be Mine

The third llama blog hop has officially launched.  I do hope you take the time to go check it out.  You can start by clicking Stampin Llamas Occasionally Occasions Blog Hop.  It will take you to the main page of the blog and you can begin your tour there.

The card I'm sharing with you today was made before I even started on my contributions to the llama blog hop.  I wanted a clean and simple card and I'm thinking it will be one of the cards we'll make in my Valentine's Day Card Class.

Stamp Set:  Outlined Occasions; Ink:  Real Red; Card Stock:  Real Red, Love Patterns Designer Series Paper; Accessories:  Hearts Collection Framelits, 3/8" Riding Hood Red Pleated Satin Ribbon, Jewels Basic Rhinestones

With the busyness of the past couple of days, I'm keeping this post short.  Be sure to check back Monday for the new Schedule of Events at the Coffee Pot Stamping Cafe.

Occasions Mini Catalog Is Here!

I'm so excited!  Now I get to share all the great new product from the Occasions Mini Catalog with you!  I know, I've been sharing  projects with you made with the new product but wasn't able to show you the actual product.  Now I can and you are going to love them!

I can tell you that one of my favorites is the new Framelits.  There is the Hearts Collection and the Labels Collection.  And, there are stamp sets to go along with them.  Oh, and the new Designer Series Papers and Edgelits Dies and Pleated Ribbon and Scented Stampin' Emboss Powder!  Oh my, there are just so many great new products that I just don't have time to list them all.

Be sure to check back often this week as I'm going to be posting the Cafe's new Events Schedule and I've added a couple of new classes.  You just aren't going to want to miss any of it!

So, with that, I'm going to go play with some more of my new Occasions Mini Catalog product.  If you don't have your catalog, let me know and I'll be sure to get one to you.
