Can you believe it??? It’s that time of year when school starts again and people start talking about summer being over. I don’t know about you but I’m holding on to summer as long as possible even if school has started. The weather is still HOT so it’s summer. People are also talking about the upcoming holidays and the stores have Pumpkin Spice everything on the shelves. Stampin’ Up is also getting ready with the reveal of the Holiday Mini Catalog coming on September 4th!

I have started sharing my Designer Series Paper reveals that you all love! This gives you a chance to see the full sheet of the NEW Designer Series Papers from the 2019 Holiday Mini Catalog!! The catalog just doesn’t seem to show off just how fabulous….or not so fabulous some of these papers are. So far I am loving them all.

Click here to check out the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper that I posted earlier this week. I LOVE this paper…..except the name. I’m not sure I’ll ever get it right without sounding crazy. I have asked google to say it for me and still I think I’m getting it wrong. Tuwell….is kinda how I’ve decided it is. Let me know in the comments what you think of the paper and how you would pronounce it! This will be available on September 4th when the Holiday Mini Catalog goes live!

Today, I’m sharing the Wrapped in Plaid Specialty Paper on my YouTube Channel. This paper is AMAZING with the foil lines in each of the those plaid patterns. It’s so pretty and I love it! I think it will work great for Christmas but it also has that cozy flannel look to it. That will go perfect for all winter long or get well cards. My family is all about wearing plaid shirts so I think of masculine cards when I see this paper. It will be perfect for birthdays and more. When I can see multiple uses for a paper pack, I get even more excited because then I know it won’t go to waste and I have a longer time period to use it in…..not just for Christmas!

Be sure to stayed tuned as I will be playing with lots of these new products from the Holiday Mini Catalog!!! After all….it’s that time of year!

Are you singing the song?? Come Sail Away, Come Sail Away, Come Sail Away with me!!! No? Just me? Let me know in the comments if you were singing along with me! Today, I’m sharing the Come Sail Away Designer Paper!!!

This paper scream masculine to me! I struggle with man cards too so I am hoping this inspires me. I’m always looking for great ideas to create some fabulous man cards! It is super nautical themed and I will admit that’s not really my thing. Living here in Illinois, I just don’t feel like it fits since we are miles from the beach and sail boats. BUT there are lots of great patterns that aren’t so nautical in this set too so I still love this paper pack! There is a whole suite of products to coordinate with this as well!!!

Did you see the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper that was posted on Tuesday??? Click here to check that out! You can also check out others I posted last week here and here!
