Whole Latte Love

I am totally amazed everytime I open a new Stampin’ Up! Catalogue at how they make products ‘just for me’!  The Seasonal Catalogue has the Tea Time Trinkets and the Sale-a-bration Catalogue has the Patterned Occasions with the little ‘Whole Latte Love’ stamp in it.  The Holiday Catalogue had a set of framelits with my very own coffee cup shape just for me!  They are such a wonderful company to be thinking of me all the time …. they definitely have a Whole Latte Love for this Sydney girl!!

Ok now I’ll stop dreaming!

Seriously though the Patterned Occasions set is one very cute little set and here is what we made recently at my Latte Team meeting and it was also the make n take at my Sale-a-bration Launch …

Recipe
Stamps: Patterned occasions
Paper: Sycamore Street DSP (Sale-a-bration), Pool Party, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White
Accessories: Scallop Trim Border Punch, Blossom Punch, Big Shot, Petite Pocket XL Die, Labels Framelits, Circle Punch, Stampin Write Markers – Rich Razzleberry, Pool Party & Pumpkin Pie

 Both the card and the little Latte Pouch are super easy to make and who wouldnt want to receive a little treat like this?? Here’s another I did, again using the Sycamore Street DSP – just a different pattern …

I often get asked how I choose my colours for my cards. Well it’s super easy if I’m using Designer Series Paper – I just go with the colours in that piece of paper! Stampin’ Up! make it so easy with the colour swatches in the catalogues and one of the best things about Stampin’ Up! is they use all their own colours in all their products – Designer Series Papers, Kits, Cardstock, Inks, ribbons – everything!

Here are the two pouches together …

These are super easy to make using the Petite Pocket Die. Simply run your paper through with the die and it comes and cut and scored and all you have to do is fold and stick it together!  I’ve then popped on a belly band and used the same image and layering as on the card – too easy!

I hope you like these little projects and if you’d like to see how easy they are to make why not book a Party and I’ll come and show you and your friends! You’ll all get to make a card and pouch and take them home – you could give them to someone who needs a little ‘perk up’ or just to show and impress everyone you know!

Have a great Friday!
