Onstage Part 2: The CARDS! Getting our ink on!

At Onstage this year we made 5 beautiful cards.  Typically we have made 4 in the past.  This year we were blessed to get a sneak peak at the May 2019 Paper Pumpkin Card, which was our 5th card.

The May Paper Pumpkin kit has been designed by Shelli Gardner, founder off Stampin' Up! In  February the Paper Pumpkin kit "Be Mine" coordinated with our Animal Outings bundle in the current catalog.  It was so wildly popular that they are doing it again!  I absolutely love when stamp sets coordinate, the creative ideas are endless!

Here is a little video I put together.  Most people put their cards together at the event, I decided to just stamp and punch mine and put them together at home.  I'm glad I did so I could share that part with you. 



Here's a closeup of the cards we made. I have to admit I haven't always liked every card we made at Onstage in the past.  But this year, I love ALL of them!

All of these cards are part of suites as well as bundles.  This year if you "want it all", as in the the suite, you can enter just one item number!  These are all of the new catalog 2019-2020 catalog which goes live the first part of June 2019

Card #1: The suite is called "Follow Your Art", the stamp set is called "It Starts with Art" and will be found on pages 52-54 of the new catalog.



Black.The Blender Pen colors used were Coastal Cabana, Smokey Slate, Flirty Flamingo & Daffodil Delight. The cardstock is Coastal Cabana and Petal Pink. The image and sentiment are stamped in Memento 

Card #2: This suite is called "Come Sail Away"  and the stamp set is called "Sailing Home".  The suite will be found on pages 144-146 in the new 2019-2020 catalog. 


The ink colors used were Night of Navy and Soft Suede. The baker's twine is Night of Navy and Sahara Sand.
 
Card #3: Is from the  the suite is called "Perennial Essence", the stamp set is called "Floral Essence".  This will be found on page 106-108. 


The card base Blackberry Bliss.  The stamped background flowers as well as the sentiment are also Blackberry Bliss. 

The flowers were  stamped in Petal Pink on the Petal Pink vellum (new this year) punched out with a new punch called Perennial Flower (this punch will also coordinate with another new suite called Magnolia Lane). 

The bow is in Mossy Meadow thread in a new combo pack that is included with a Linen ribbon in the Magnolia Lane suite this year.

Card #4: As I mentioned in the video, this card will coordinate with the May 2019 Paper Pumpkin. The suite is called "Bird Ballad", the stamp set is called "Free As A Bird".  These will be found on pages 90-92. Isn't it adorable!   Love the hand painted DSP!


The colors we used in the blender pens were Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Flirty Flamingo and Crumb Cake.  The sentiment was stamped on Old Olive in Memento Black. 

Card #5: Lastly, this card is a SNEAK PEAK from upcoming May 2019 Paper Pumpkin kit!  It doesn't have a name, since that is secret until right before the kit ships.  It is beautiful, don't you think? It will come with gorgeous, coordinating envelopes. As I said, this was inspired by Shelli Gardner!


Hope you like these previews of things to come.  As promised, I will have another post with all the new and improved (really, honestly) catalog layout!  

Which of these is your favorite? I would love to hear from you in the comments. 

Thanks for stopping by!
