SA Occasions Mini 2010 Blog Hop!



Hello!  Happy New Year and welcome to the Stampin' Addicts Occasions Mini 2010 blog hop!  The hop will run from noon today, January 1st, through January 3rd.  The products featured in the hop will be available for purchase from your demonstrator beginning January 5th!

If you have been hopping along in order, you've just arrived from Heather's blog.  How adorable are those new chipboard books?  And such an awesome deal too!  If this is your first stop, don't worry!  You can continue on from here and find your way around.

I am showcasing the new stamp set "Little Angel", which includes four stamps.  Here is my first project:



The little journal is SU!'s 5 x 5" Art Journal.  Wouldn't this be a fabulous gift for new parents?  There is a space to insert a picture on the front (fits a wallet sized photo), and it's a great way to keep track of all those little memories you don't want to forget!  I also made a little 3 x 3" card to go along with it.

Little Angel Journal and 3 x 3" card supplies:  Little Angel stamp set; Soft Suede and Old Olive Classic Stampin' Pads; So Saffron, Pretty in Pink and Soft Suede textured cardstock; Whisper White cardstock; The Write Stuff Specialty Designer Series Paper; On Board Loads of Letters chipboard (heart); Pretty in Pink button from Sherbet Designer Button pack; Sweet Pea Stitched Felt (available Jan. 5th); Old Olive 1/4" grosgrain ribbon; Soft Suede and So Saffron Stampin' Write markers; Scallop Oval punch; Large Oval punch; Scallop Edge punch; Photo Corners punch; Spiral punch; Scallop Circle punch; 1-1/4" Circle punch; 1-3/8" Circle punch; On Board 5 x 5" Art Journal; sponge dauber


So at first glance, you may think this stamp set is only for baby projects... not so!  Here is a card that is perfect for saying "I love you":



Sweet Pea Scalloped card supplies:  Little Angel stamp set; Melon Mambo Classic Stampin' Pad; Kraft, Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, and Very Vanilla cardstock; The Write Stuff Specialty Designer Series Paper; Old Olive 5/8" grosgrain ribbon; Kraft corduroy button; Linen Thread; Heart to Heart punch; Scallop Square Clear Bigz die


Last but not least, I have a 6 x 6" scrapbook page featuring my favorite subject.. my furbaby. :)



Sweet 6 x 6" scrapbook page supplies:  Little Angel stamp set; Old Olive Classic Stampin' Pad; Whisper White and Old Olive Craft Stampin' Pads; Regal Rose and Pretty in Pink textured cardstock; Whisper White cardstock; The Write Stuff Specialty Designer Series Paper; Lovely Flowers Designer Series Paper from the Lovely Lines Level 3 Hostess Bundle; On Board Loads of Letters chipboard; Pretty in Pink 3/8" taffeta ribbon; Regal Rose, Old Olive and Crushed Curry Stampin' Write markers; Clear embossing powder; Scallop Edge punch; Corner Rounder punch; sponge daubers


Here's a quick look at the stamp set, available both in wood-mount (117684) and clear-mount (118574):
