Here are some samples using Holiday Catalog Product.  These projects are from my Customer Appreciation Class last weekend.  Many of the projects were inspired from other stampers!:




1.      Fold the 5 1/2 x 8 /12 Very Vanilla card base in half.  Stamp and sign the back.  Set aside.
2.      All stamps on this card are from Painted Harvest (Bundle and Save!) from the Holiday Catalog.
3.      On the 3 3/4 x 5 Very Vanilla cardstock, FIRST ink up the larger sunflower image in Crushed Curry ink.  THEN STAMP IT ON THE SCRATCH PAPER on the Foam Mat.  THEN stamp on the card.  Repeat three times.
4.      THEN ink up the smaller sunflower image in Crushed Curry and stamp on top of the first one (full strength ink).  Repeat three times.  *You can line up the center of the flower when stamping.
5.      Add the center in Early Espresso.
6.      On your one scrap of 2 x 6 1/4 Very Vanilla cardstock IN YOUR BAGGIE, stamp the two leaves first in Garden Green ink, then the greeting in Early Espresso ink.  Punch out with the Leaf Punch from the Holiday Catalog (Bundle and Save!) and the Everyday Label Punch from the Holiday Catalog (Bundle and Save!).
7.      Cut off the two ends of the pre-punched Early Espresso Everyday Label Punch.  Attach them to the sides/back of the greeting.  Attach the leaves to that.
