When software causes delays...

What a week!  I've been trying to get this blog post written for over a week now.  However, my laptop had other ideas.  Here it is almost 2 weeks into the month and there's a new catalog and a BIG sale to celebrate and what happens?  Technology...ah we love it and we love to complain about it.  Well, I think my particular issue is fixed now, so here are some fun projects using the New products from the Occasions Catalog.

 Let's start with my favorite Bundle of the Occasions Catalog.  Found on page 26, it's the amazing Dragonfly Dreams Stamp Set and Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits Dies.  They really are as beautiful as all of the samples you see on Pinterest and elsewhere.  In this card, I've paired one of the detailed Thinlits with the Serene Scenery Designer Series Paper Stack (p. 174 in the Annual Catalog.)  The background stamping is from Timeless Textures and the sentiment comes from a carry-over favorite from the Holiday Catalog: Basket of Wishes.  A few of the Metallic Enamel Shapes ad a bit of bling to to card.
