Yesterday was a good day. I got a sneak peek of the new 2016 Occasions Catalog! I just have to say…it’s amazing. Equally amazing to our current holiday catalog. I will probably end up with about 90% of the products in it because I want them all!
Back in October when I was on my Rising Star trip to the Stampin’ Up! Home Office, we were really luck to get some sneak peeks of our own, before ANYONE else had seen the products! Now that I’m finally allowed to share, I want to give you a preview of the Botanical Blooms bundle, which includes some pretty awesome stuff. Here is the first lovely creation I have been able to make with this product bundle.
I made this card for this week’s Mojo Monday Challenge. Here is the sketch for the challenge.
In the past we have had many bundles of coordinating products. These have mainly been stamp sets that coordinate with dies or punches. Therefore, these bundles had two products that coordinated with each other. We often have paper and embellishments that also match, but for what I’m talking about, really only the stamp set and dies/punch coordinated.
The Botanical Blooms product suite brings product coordination to a whole new level with five (yes five) products that all coordinate. Three of them can be ordered from the catalog and two will be Sale-a-bration gifts. So how do we get five products that coordinate? I’ll give you one hint. The dies not only coordinate with the stamp set, but they also match up with the images on the designer series paper. I’ll leave the rest to your imagination.
I love the detail in this product bundle. Just look at these beautiful flowers and leaves.
These products won’t be available to order until January 5, so for now you can get out that wish list and start writing down your favorites. Or if you order the starter kit now, you can begin ordering your new favorites from the upcoming Occasions Catalog beginning on December 3! Learn more here.
Don’t forget that I’m going to have some awesome Black Friday deals next week. Make sure to sign up for my email list so you get all the details! If you’re planning to place an order, use hostess code NA6AZJPU and I will send you a free gift! Even better, sign up for stamp club and you will get free projects and free stamps!

Beautiful card I can hardly wait to get my pre order so that I can case it.
Did you get the Blooming Heart I need to make wedding invitations and think it would be perfect
Anna Smith says
Thank you! Actually, I got this set on the Rising Star trip. I didn’t attend OnStage, so I don’t get to order until December 3 🙁 It’s going to be a long wait to get the new stuff!

Absolutely stunning! I didn’t realize how well all those flower layers went together!! 🙂
Anna Smith says
It was really neat to hear how this product suite and Going Places were developed. We requested that they make some videos explaining how some of the products are developed to share on YouTube. I think demonstrators and customers would enjoy hearing about the process.
