Mediterranean Achievers Blog Hop May 2016
Welcome to the Grand Vacation Achievers Blog Hop for May. This month our theme is 2016-2017 Annual Catalog Sneak Peek. We are so excited to be able to show you these amazing BRAND NEW products that you will be able to purchase one the 1st June 2016.

I decided to use the Painter's Palette Stamp Set and coordinate it with the brand new Affectionately Yours Specialty Designer Paper and the Copper embossing Powder. These products are completely WOW!! The Designer Series Paper has copper in the specialty paper and is just beautiful. I also added a little bit of Washi Tape
This specialty designer series paper coordinates with another stamp set called Love & Affection, so there are LOTS of coordination in the products in the new catalog
At On Stage Live in Salt Lake City, Carrie Cudney shared a great tip for making quick cards and using up our "hoards" of paper – do you have that problem? Cutting into the beautiful paper and USING it? Me too…….
I took the Navy and Crumb Cake paper and cut it 4 1/4" X 4". I then cut it diagonally – you now have a great space to add a sentiment. I added some Washi Tape and then embossed the paint palette and added it to the center! LOVE how it turned out. I can see this paper will definitely be a favorite in the new catalog, which you can begin ordering from on June 1st.
