ESAD 2017 Occasions Catalogue and Saleabration blog hop

Are you ready for a sneak peek of some amazing gorgeousness that is the Stampin' up! Occasions catalogue? It doesn't actually go live until 4 January 2017 but you can get a sneaky glimpse of what I've been creating with my pre ordered stampin'up! goodies.

This is the ESAD blog hop so at the end of the page you will find a list of other lovely Australian demonstrators who have beautiful products to show you... I can't wait, can you?

Here's my first sneak peek - Dragon flies!!! 

The Dragonfly dreaming stamp is stamped directly in basic black ink on to new Designer series paper (DSP) called "Falling in love". Oh, I am, it is full of photographic images of that bokeh effect when the light creates out of focus patterns in the background! 

And I've stepped it up with a shimmer papered Blushing bride dragon fly thinlets die.

How gorgeous will these look in the sunshine?

But don't forget the negative piece of the die cut. This glimmer paper is too precious to waste.

This time I have stamped the dragonfly image through the cut out on to the DSP.

Look at this one with a bee and a dragonfly hovering over the silver foil doily. You can never have enough bling right? I've painted the bee with my gold wink of stellar pen and placed a sequin on the dragonfly's body. Ooooh, the things I want to do with this stamp!

As soon as I saw this stamp I wanted to put it on velum. And it looks great over the new "Cupcakes and carousels" DSP stack. 

And then, I thought to colour the back of the velum with our new... Watercolour pencils!

Burmuda bay and Pacific Point go together perfectly.

So there's your lot of sneak peaks from Stamping Joy, now pop on over to Rachael Lewsley's blog for some more creativity and start your New Year's wish list now.
