My preorder arrived a couple days ago, and I couldn’t wait to create with some of my new products!

I shared many of these preorder products (and more goodies from OnStage) yesterday in a Facebook Live broadcast. Then I uploaded the recorded version of this video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). If you missed that, you can watch my recorded video here (just click on this image below if you are already on my blog).

I created these pretty (yet super-simple) cards with the new Amazing Life stamp set, the Butterfly Duet Punch, the Black/Silver ¼” Striped Metallic ribbon, and the Botanical Butterfly designer series paper.

I’ll be adding printed invitations on the right section of the insides, but these are the left insides of the cards.

Measurements for each card…

• Basic Black Cardstock: 11″ x 4-1/4″ scored at 5-1/2″ and folded in half for the card base
• Grapefruit Grove Cardstock: 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the inside left
• Whisper White Cardstock: 4″ x 4″ & 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the inside right
• Botanical Butterfly Designer Paper: 1-1/2″ x 4″ and scrap for punching out a couple butterflies
• Black/Silver Striped Metallic Ribbon: 13″

Directions:

• Stamp large sentiment on the right side of the the 4″ x 4″ Whisper White piece & adhere to the right portion of the card front.
• Attach designer paper strip to the left portion of the card front.
• Stamp small sentiment on the Grapefruit Grove piece so it’s centered and positioned about an inch from the bottom. Adhere to the inside of the card on the left side.
• Wrap and tie on ribbon as shown so the knot is on the inside of the card positioned close to the sentiment.
• Attach the 5-1/4″ Whisper White piece to the inside of the card on the right side. (A great place to put a handwritten note!)
• Punch out a couple butterflies from the designer paper and attach to the inside and the outside of the card. The outside one is attached with a Dimensional.

Keep in mind that the products featured here are debuting on January 3rd in the 2019 Occasions Catalog and 2019 Sale-A-Bration brochure. So they are unavailable to order right now. But at least you can get a wish list started.

• Amazing Life stamp set
• Butterfly Duet Punch
• Black/Silver ¼” Striped Metallic ribbon
• Botanical Butterfly designer series paper (free with a $50+ order during Sale-a-Bration January 3 – March 31, 2019)
