Okay…I know that you probably haven’t even had time to find everything you love about the new Idea Book & Catalog and here I am talking about a sneak peek!!   But let’s face it.  We all LOVE a sneak peek!!  I couldn’t resist using some of the new items from my Holiday Mini preorder for the sketch from Stampin’ 411 this week.

The image is from a set called Always Thankful and it has the most beautiful images for coloring.  I chose the milk jug and wheat image since it was perfect for the sketch.  The paper in the background is from the new Spice Cake DSP.  I mean really…is is possible to not love spice cake??!  As always with Stampin’ Up papers, this set of designs is amazing!  The little flower on the side of the milk jug is not a part of the image but actually comes from a different stamp in the set.  I simply stamped it, colored it and cut it out.  It is attached with a Mini Glue Dot that gives it just a little dimension.  Last, I wanted to add some ribbon in keeping with the sketch.  I reached for the new In Color Ruffled Ribbon in Pool Party (which matches the new DSP).  I ruffled it a little more using Sticky Strip and tied it with some Linen Thread.

I hope you like this little peek into the fun things coming to you starting September 1st.  Just wait until you get to see what other fabulous products will be available!!  Thanks for stopping in today.  For those expecting a ColorLab challenge, this is a week off and some fun changes are coming.  Come back next Thursday for more information!!  See you again soon!
