To help celebrate the launch of the Occasions and Sale-a-bration Catalogues with customers a friend and I held a fun crafting afternoon a few weeks ago. The afternoon involved three make & takes, six door prizes, a yummy afternoon tea, the opportunity to be amongst the first to use the new Stamparatus tool, see a Brushos demonstration and see some inspiring product displays.
Here is the first make and take using the beautiful Petal Palette suite, Happy Wishes and the beautiful Burlap background stamp. The ombre effect was achieved with stamping daubers and the Stamparatus.
The Party Pandas are shaping up to be one of the most favourite sets for my team and customers during Sale-a-bration so far and this make and take was super cute! The black and white Petal Passion designer series paper was coloured using a brayer and then the balloons and the hat coloured with a blender pen and watercolour pencils.
The final project was a tone on tone done in blues: Bermuda Bay, Pool Party and Dapper Denim. The guitar was fussy cut with paper snips and the sentiment was punched with the new Tailored Tag punch.
Obviously during Sale-a-bration there are some fantastic freebies to be chosen for different spend amounts so we wanted to showcase some of the variety of hand stamped items you can make with those.
Each door prize featured a Panda tag.
…..and the theme was continued for the cup cake toppers as well – I should say there were also large platters of fruit in addition to sugar treats!
What I forgot to photograph was the little treat container that featured, you guessed it a little fussy cut Panda with a red party hat!
