Hope everyone had a happy new year. Today’s blog post is all about new products from the mini catalog. By now, you should have your catalog, and I will post what pages each product is on. Plus, information on the first LATTE TO-GO PLEASE CARD CLASS for the new year. Keep reading to learn more.

This first card features four items in the new catalog:

• Ice Cream Swirl Bundle on page 37. This has twelve stamps plus ten dies in this bundle. Perfect for birthdays or just to send a sweet card to a friend. The sentiment is stamped in Pecan Pie and fussy cut.
• Poetic Expressions Designer Series Paper on page 61. This also has a matching bundle, but I have not gotten it. Also on the same page are the Champagne Iridescent Dots (in the top right corner, you will see the dots.)
• Pretty Peacock and Gold three-eighths ribbon on page 15. This comes from the Forever Love Suite of products. Pairs well with the Poetic Expressions Designer Series Paper.
• Other items used are Boho Blue for the card base, and the gold layer is Distressed Gold Specialty Paper from the Annual Catalog on pages 25 and 127. Wild Wheat for the sugar cone, Basic White, and Pecan Pie for the ice cream.

Next up Is a card made for our team swap featuring Sale-A-Bration products.

On page 11 of the Sale-A-Bration catalog, you will find the Trusty Toolbox 12″x12″ Designer Series Paper that you can get for FREE with a $50.00 order. Purchase the matching bundle-Trusty Tools Stamps and Dies, on page 56 of the Spring mini catalog. Purchasing it qualifies for a FREE SAB item.

This is a Side Accordion Panel Card and is easy to make. I also used the Alphabet Al A Mode Dies on page 162 of the Annual Catalog. This bundle is fun for the handyperson. Just change out the colors. I plan to create it in pink. This designer series paper would also work for Valentine’s Day, not just Father’s Day.

The designer series paper features rulers, grid paper, tools, and more. The dies can die-cut the tools, a peg board, and a die to create a toolbox! How exciting!! More cards and 3-D items to be posted in the future. There will be a class for this in April.

Now for the Bee Mine Suite on pages 8-10 of the mini catalog. This suite of products is buzzing with excitement. The designer series paper features bees, flowers, gingham, and striped prints. The suite includes:

• Bee My Valentine Bundle-24 stamps and a bee punch
• Sweet Sorbet 1/4″ Ribbon-10 yards
• Square Pillow Boxes- 10 white stampable boxes
• Adhesive Backed-Hearts and Flowers-64 pieces, 6-9 mm, in Sweet Sorbet, Petal Pink, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, and White.
• Bee Mine 12″ x12″ Designer Series Paper-12 sheets, two each of six double-sided designs.

Used a blending brush to color the box in Daffodil Delight. Added a piece of the designer series paper and ribbon to help keep the box closed. Next, add three of the adhesive-backed flowers and hearts. Stamped the bee in Basic Black and then the bee body in Daffodil Delight. I stamped the face in Basic Black on the Basic White. Stamped the wings in Daffodil Delight on Basic White. Punched them out with the matching punch.

This suite is my January 2024 Bee Mine Latte To-Go Please Card Class. If you are interested in this class, you can learn more about the class by clicking on the button below.

This next stamp is called Planted Paradise. A reversible stamp set that has twenty stamps. You can find it on page 47 of the January-April 2024 mini catalog. This card is a diamond stair step card and uses the Poetic Expressions Designer Series Paper. This stamp set with the Poetic Expressions DSP will be featured in my February 2024 Latte To-Go Please! Card Class for Mother’s Day.
