My New Catalog Open House was a huge success! Everyone loved Sean's yummy desserts based on new In Colors (see the post below for recipes and pictures of the treats). Door prizes were won by Kathy Little, Pat Harrison, Missy Gosson, and Connie Gibbons. Connie was actually on a winning streak - she won 3 door prizes! Joy Dryer and Pat Harrison also got goodies from me. Joy got a gift for bringing a friend with her and Pat got a gift for being the friend who had never before attended any of my events.
Of course, everyone also got the chance to stamp some fun projects using new products!
Here are the projects everyone could make if they wished. Enjoy!

We added ink to the top flap of the embossing folder and spritzed it lightly with water before putting the card stock in and running it through the Big Shot for this next card. I love the soft, watery look that was acheived! The light Soft Sky Ink on the sentiment did not scan well, it reads "Praying for you..."

To make the hummingbird on this next card face the correct way, you have to stamp it first on a piece of card stock and cut it out by hand. Then, flip the cut out image over and color the back side of the card stock using Markers.
