New Year, New Products and a New Challenge!

So in case you haven't noticed my posting has been a little none extistant lately and with out rambling on like I usually do let's just say that the month of December was a write off! I think the cold and flu bugs must of liked it at our warm and cozy house because they didn't want to leave! Thankfully now we all seem to be doing fine and I am so excited that I got to play with some new goodies from the up and coming Occasions Mini Catalogue! Drum roll please.......

TADA!

    
 

 I thought I would play along with PPA's challenge for this week, which was anything but a card. And let me tell you I was so excited to be inking up my new CLEAR MOUNT STAMPS from Stampin' Up! that the squeals from my craft room I'm sure were heard down the street! I created a little bag that is the perfect size for all sorts of goodies and can also fit atleast 8 love notes and evevelopes. 

So can you tell I tried to jam as many new items on to this project as possible LOL?! 9 to be exact-but the challenge is "CAN YOU NAME THEM ALL?" There is a awesome prize!

 
 
Yes, that's right I am the Dream Team Member once again representing Canada and have a FREE PASS to the next round of UStamp with Dawn and Friends and I would love to give it to you! All you have to do is answer the question by naming the 9 new items I used and leaving your answer in the comments section of this post. Good Luck and I will even help you out by providing this link to the New Occasions Mini Catalogue that will be available to order from starting January 5th! (Occasions Mini Catalogue) I will randomly draw a winner from the correct answer on January 5th.

Happy Stampin'

I'll give it a go Jenn. Your creations are beautiful!

1. Scallop Trim Corner punch
2. Sending Love Specialty Designer Series Paper
3. Sending Love Epoxy Brads (both Chocolate Chip and Real Red)
4. I {Heart} Hearts stamp set
5. Scalloped Heart of Hearts Sizzlit
6. 5/8" Satin Ribbon (Real Red and Very Vanilla, I think)

I can't for the life of me find anything else unless the different brads/ribbons count for more than one item.

Hope 2010 is wonderful to you and Congrats on another round of UStamp as a Dream Team member. I've loved all of your creations!!

[Jamie A.]

This is my second post since I don't know how to (or if I can) edit my first post. If we can list SAB stuff, then my 9th item will be the Scallop Trim Border Punch! I didn't put the Clear Mount Blocks, because I couldn't be sure that you used those, but I suppose if you used Clear Mount stamps, then you would have needed to use the blocks LOL.

I hope you have a great week! Do your kids go back to school this week or is the Canadian winter break different than the U.S.? Take care!

[Paula Jensen]

Oooh, it's not as easy as it looks! Here goes:

1. Scallop Trim Corner Punch
2. Sending Love DSP
3. Epoxy Brads - choc chip
4. Epoxy Brads - real red
5. I {Heart} Hearts stamp set
6. Real Red 5/8" satin ribbon
7. Very Vanilla 5/8" satin ribbon
8. Scalloped Heart of Hearts die
9. Scallop Trim Border Punch (SAB)

Can't know for sure if you used wood or clear stamps, so the clear blocks are out. And I don't think that's the new small heart punch, but the Heart to Heart punch instead. But then there's the SAB punch, sooooo....the only one who knows for sure is YOU! Thanks Jenn! I'm so glad we got a chance to get together last month, let's do it again soon! ♥
