Hey everyone! How is your week going? I know when Christmas falls on a week day it messes with everyone schedules, mine included. How was your Christmas? We were blessed with lots of family and all the trimmings, so it was all good. Since everyone is still in the holiday mode with New Years coming, I thought I’d show you something from the upcoming Occasions Catalog. It’s one of the new card kits and it has everything you need to complete 12 gorgeous cards, including an adorable acetate box that makes this kit perfect for gift giving! Here’s a look at that cute box:
Isn’t that cute? Just a note to self, when creating that belly band, add the adhesive to it then wrap it around the box before you adhere the two sides together. I didn’t of course, and it was a bit of a struggle sliding it up on the box. This kit literally has everything you need in it, including 2 full sheets of dimensionals! The only other adhesive you need to provide is on the belly band. That’s it! It comes with a clear block, a Blackberry Bliss Stampin’ Spot, the stamp set, pearls and all the die cuts ready to pop out and adhere to the card front. You create 4 cards of 3 designs and it includes coordinating envelopes. All for $27.00!! Now that’s a deal!!
Now let’s look at the cards you create. Here is card one:
Isn’t that pretty? Like I said, all the die cuts are there and ready to add the dimensionals and adhere to the card fronts. Here’s a look at card two:
When I stamped my cards I created them just as the instructions listed, which makes the creating process a breeze. Here’s a look at the third card:
I love all the color combinations they used too. This kit is perfect for every level stamper from beginner to advanced. We all want something quick and easy in a pinch and this fits that to a tee. If you have someone in your life that isn’t a crafter, you could create all the cards and give them to them in the box with maybe a bow on top.Your perfect bow and go present! Everyone needs those all occasion cards.
