Sneak Peak and A Friend in Need

Hello all,

My most favourite thing about being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator are the incredible friendships I've developed over the years.

A couple weeks ago I attended On Stage in Vancouver. One of the benefits of being an attendee is the Product Purchase Premiere (PPP.) This means you get to order select items from the new catalogue before it's even been released. Not surprisingly, I took advantage and ordered a few of the new suites along with ALL the new In-Colors.

Let me introduce you:

Pretty Peacock, Seaside Spray, Purple Posy, Rococo Rose and Terracotta Tile
(L to R)

As of May 1st, all Demonstrators can order these select items. This gives us time to prepare samples for our Open Houses and Catalogue Release Parties. Yesterday, on the Demonstrator Facebook page, I notice a post indicating one of the new colours wasn't going to be available for another month or two. (Sorry peeps.)

Since I already had my PPP order in hand, I am lucky enough to have this colour. One demo, in Germany, commented on how badly she wanted to see this colour in real life, sooner rather than later. I messaged her for her address and now we're having a wee international card swap.

Here is the card I made for her to illustrate the beauty of Purple Posy. I used the beautiful Floral Essence stamp set. The flowers are stamped in Purple Posy, onto Purple Posy cardstock. 

If you have any questions about this project or want me to reserve a copy of the New Annual Catalogue for you, feel free to message me.

Here is supply list for this card: Cardstock - Whisper White, Purple Posy, Highland Heather & Gorgeous Grape; Stamp Set - Floral Essence: Ink - Purple Posy & Gorgeous Grape; Punches - 2", 2 1'4" Circles & the Leaf; Embellishments - 5/8" Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon & Metallic Sequin Assortment. (The items highlighted are not available until the new catalogue goes live on June 3rd.)

My shop is here. On orders under 200, please be sure to use this month's host code. (Just to the right, underneath the picture of the catalogue.) Using this code will enter you into my fabulous monthly draw.*

Until next time.
Adrienne
