Sneak Peek: Amazing Life & Happiness Blooms Suite

 The holidays are in full swing, but I finished up my Christmas crafting last week.  So today I’m going to share with you a sneak peek from the upcoming Occasions catalog which launches January 3, 2019.

The layout for this card comes from this week’s sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.  This is the second week of their Design Team Call, so you still have a little bit of time to throw your hat in the ring.  I always love their sketches!

Demonstrators were given the Amazing Life stamp set at On Stage in November.  I can’t believe this is my first time using it!  There are a lot of great images and sentiments in this stamp set.   I paired it with the Bloom by Bloom stamp set and the gorgeous Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper.  The colors in this paper just pop and the patterns are BOLD.  This color combo is Night of Navy, Call Me Clover and Pineapple Punch.  Don’t you love it?

I colored the “Happy” with the Call Me Clover Stampin’ Blends.  The banner was paper pieced by stamping the sentiment on a piece of Pineapple Punch card stock, then cutting out the banner and adding it with dimensionals. For embellishment, I added just a few Happiness Blooms enamel dots.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Don’t forget to check out the Stampin’ Up! clearance rack.  It’s been updated with new items.  You’ve been good this year, haven’t you?
