At this class we will be using the new Sending Love Specialty Designer Series Papers to decorate this cute little heart box and tin mailbox. We will also be making a few mini milk cartons and some 3 x 3 note cards to store in your mailbox. This is a class that you will not want to miss!

Supplies need for this class: Paper snips and a bone folder.

Valentine's Flower Bouquet

I created this beautiful Valentine's Flower Bouquet using the following Stampin' Up! products:

- Real Red Cardstock
- Pretty-in-Pink Cardstock
- Full Heart Punch
- 1-1/4" Circle Punch
- 1" Circle Punch
- Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits Die
- Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder
- Sizzix Big Shot
- Real Red Corduroy Brads & Buttons
- Pretty-in-Pink Corduroy Buttons

First I ran the cardstock through the Big Shot using the Polka Dot Textured Impressions Folder and punched out four hearts for each flower using my Full Heart punch. I then used a two-way glue pen to piece together each flower. I finished each piece with a Corduroy button or brad. These flowers are quick and easy to create and the bouquet will make a beautiful centerpiece for your special Valentine!

I will be demonstrating how to create these flowers at my Valentine's Day project class on Sunday, January 31st.

Occasions Mini Catalog

The Occasions Mini Catalog products will be available beginning Tuesday, January 5th. This new mini catalog is wonderful. If space to store your Stampin' Up! stamps sets is an issue, then the products in this catalog are ones that you do not want to miss. Stampin' Up! has taken their great rubber stamps and given you an option to mount these stamp sets on clear acrylic blocks. These new stamp sets are identified in the catalog with a "C". The sets will arrive to you in compact DVD size cases and you will just need to purchase coordinating acrylic blocks. I will be purchasing a few of these need stamps and be creating a tutorial on my blog in the next few weeks. I will also be demonstrating this wonderful new product at some of my upcoming workshops. Stampin' Up! will also still continue to offer the wood mounted stamp sets.

Check out pages 10 & 11 for our newly designed punches. These punches will allow you to punch with ease and they lock shut and provide you with more storage space. This mini catalog also has some great new designer series papers and new accessories perfect for Valentine's Day, Easter and Mother's Day.
