Lots of Happy Wishes - Sneak Peek Occasions Catalogue 2018

On Friday I shared some of the cards I made with the fabulous Lots of Happy Card Kit and mentioned that the kit also includes a couple of floral stamps.  So today I decided to experiment a bit with them.

A sneak peek of several stamp sets in the 2018 Occasions Catalogue

I'm not 100% happy with this card but it was good practice!  It also uses a couple of other new product from the 2018 Occasions Catalogue - the Happy Wishes Stamp set for the greeting and the Petal Palette stamp set for the dots.

Both of those stamp sets are ENORMOUS, containing 15 and 16 stamps each!  The Happy Wishes stamp set is one of the freebies that will be available during Sale-A-Bration.

If I were to make this again, I would use black ink for the large happy greeting and Rose Red for the script above and below that.

I used the watercolour pencils from the card kit and blended the colour with an aqua painter.

I popped the decorative layer up on Stampin' Dimensionals for a bit more interest.

If you'd like to receive a copy of the Occasions Catalogue (live in Australia and aren't a Stampin' Up Demonstrator), contact me and I'll send one out.

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!

Sneak Peek Occasions Catalogue 2018 - Lots of Happy Card Kit

I'm so impressed with this beautiful card kit!  It has everything you need in the box (except for some adhesive like Snail and a pair of snips to cut the ribbon) - ideal for the beginner or casual card-maker!

The Lots of Happy Card Kit has everything you need to make 16 gorgeous cards!

The kit contains the makings for four each of four different designs of cards - that's 16 cards in all.  They do vary in size and shape, some of them are quite small, but they're all beautiful and have gorgeous matching envelopes with black striped interiors.

The little stamp set that's included has a variety of greetings to suit most occasions and a couple of small flower images, which I'll explore tomorrow.

One of each card in the Lots of Happy Card Kit

The kit also contains some water colour pencils in exclusive colours not found in the pencil collection and the stamps cover many occasions and can be used over and over again in the future.

The smallest card in the Lots of Happy Card Kit

This card in the Lots of Happy Card Kit has an unusual shape - you'll need to think about where you want the fold

Probably the quickest card to make in the Lots of Happy Card Kit

Just love the dimension in this card from the Lots of Happy Card Kit

The floral and the stripes create such a striking card
