Wednesday’s WOW! #131 – Pick a Punch. I can’t believe how many new punches there are in the new Mini Catalogue. Punches are so quick and easy to use and great for any level of crafter (or any age). And many of these new ones are so cute!
The new punches co-ordinate with new stamp sets available. You can buy them as a bundle with the stamps or individually. I thought it would be fun to check them out.
Here are all the new ones below. (This image is taken straight from my store so you will be able to head there to see them more).
So what is your favourite new punch? I can’t choose.
Here are some samples of just some of them to see them in action. (samples created by Stampin’ Up! artists).
See these and all the other great punches in my store -> HERE. If ordering there please use the Host Code: NR7MK2VR. Don’t forget to pick your Sale-A-Bration item with your qualifying orders over $90 or $180.

I wanted to show you the mini cards I recently created to send out to many of my customers with the new 2022 Mini Catalogue.
I used the Many Marbleous Designer Series Paper available for Sale-A-Bration. There are some great marble style prints in this paper in many colours. I used a number of the colours showing both side of the print.
Here are a few of them.
The swirled edge above the White Frayed Ribbon is from the Brilliant Rainbow Dies both from the Mini Catalogue. The sentiment is from the Rainbow Happiness Stamp set and diecut using the new Beautiful Shapes Dies.
Have you seen all the lovely new Catalogue products AND the Sale-A-Bration choices??

If you would like your own catalogue sent out to you please let me know.
Today I wanted to share just some of my favourites creations from the 2021. It was hard to narrow it down.
A special Congratulations card for my son on his engagement. I think this was the highlight of the year when my son – and now daughter-in-law were married!
Another popular one and I know many have followed along with the video and used the template to create these cards. Create 4 cards with 1 piece of 6″x6″ paper.
I know it’s a crazy, busy time. I am just preparing all the new catalogues to send out. The 2022 Mini Catalogue starts on January 4th. Woo Hoo!
Would you like one?
Just take a quick minute and comment here or email me at jghayward@yahoo.com and say a big YES! I will get one in the mail to you very soon. (Australian residents only).
Now back to your crazy Christmas preparations.
I look forward to sharing more creating with you in the New Year. Thank you for all your support this year.
On our Team Zoom Christmas chat on the weekend we were given a Challenge. Use Non-Christmas products to create a Christmas card – in 20 minutes! YIKES!
I have to say it took me half that time to work out what I was going to do but here is my card.
I ended up using the Tasteful Touches stamp set and the Watercolor Shapes Stamp set. Also who would have thought that the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper would work for Christmas.
What would you do? Why not give it a try.
Hope all your preparations are going well. It’s a crazy time.
