Sneak Peek: New Designer Series Paper and Embossing Folder!

 This card was made at the Onstage Event at the Hilton Hotel in the company of 9 lovely new stamping friends, who happened to be sitting at my table. It features a new paper suite called "Affectionately Yours", which is a specialty paper with copper highlights embossed into the design. It works beautifully with mint macaron and watermelon wonder cardstock. The card also features a new embossing folder: "Floral Affection," which has lots of possibilities for sponging, watercoloring and similar techniques. Another couple of products that will be available to co-ordinate with this suite are copper embossing powder, and fine copper thread.

More from the Regional Art Gallery Exhibition.

Here are 4 of the 5 boxes / bags that I exhibited in the Gallery.

The 5th box was too large to get a photo of with the limited space I had to photograph it, but you can see it in the final shot with the entire suite.

I named my exhibit "Autumn Gifts," as the boxes are intended be used as gift boxes (the belly bands slip off so you can pop a gift inside).

I couldn't finish without showing you the yummy food that was catered for the event. (We were served delicious wines as well.)
