Card Patterns

If you have been following my blog for a bit now, you know that I am a BIG fan of card sketches...what a great tool to jump start your cardmaking. I love them too for forcing me to try something new. So this week I am thrilled to tell you that I am the sponsor over at the Card Patterns blog.

I hope you'll pay them a visit to see what the talented designers are up to! They are playing with one of my favorite retired snowmen sets and the Catalynne paper pack (and you have a chance to win it all!). Have you noticed the trend for softer colors this Christmas? I thought this paper would be perfect -- but really, it's super any time of the year!

So be sure to stop over at Card Patterns and see what other special surprises await you - and don't forget to play along! I will be posting my own takes on the sketch this week too!

By now Inspiration Avenue is live over at The Angel Company, but don't forget that you can still order from the spring supplement...Serendipty. If you don't have a hard copy to thumb through and enjoy, here's a sample of what you are missing!


42 new stamp sets!



Step by step project ideas!






and just plain inspiration!

Excitement on Inspiration Avenue!

Yup...The Angel Company's latest magalogue (that's a funny name for a catalog that is like a magazine - and truly it is!!), Inspiration Avenue, is creating quite a buzz. I don't think I've seen this much excitement from the demos in a LONG time! I've begun shipping my copies out to those of you who preordered...and it's not too late to get a copy!

You can get your copy of Inspiration Avenue 4 different ways:

And now for my card! I used this same stamp in my last post and just love it...it's great for making quick cards when you need to send someone a note to let them know you are thinking of them.



Card Materials: The Angel Company
Stamps: Watercolors Plants, More Abundance
Accessories: Lemonade Buttons and Flowers, twine, Cha Cha cardstock (bazzill), tombow pastel markers

CPS129

It's been awhile but I finally had a chance to play along with the CPS sketch and I really liked the layout. I tried making the card a bit vintage or distressed looking (figured it would go with the look of the papers) so I sponged on some brown and purple markers. It left blotches of ink rather than shading like I wanted, but by distressing the edges it helped soften up things. I hope!




Card Materials: all stamps and papers from The Angel Company
Stamps: Watercolor Plants
Accessories: Angelee Soar with it Collection and cardstock, Lemonaid Buttons and Flowers collection, cuttlebug emboss plate, twine, lace ribbon, tombow markers




EXCITING NEWS!! I received my preorders of Inspiration Avenue, the latest magalogue from The Angel Company and I am not kidding when I say it's wonderful! 42 new stamp sets plus lots of great project ideas. TAC has really out done itself and included little mini color segments to make it feel more like a magazine than a catalog. You won't be disappointed! I will be shipping copies out on Monday to those of you who preordered them, but if you'd like to order a copy - please get with me! I still have the base catalog on hand (which includes a $4 off coupon) and if you buy both together - you'll definitely save on shipping!

The stickles and set are on order and I'll send them out to you shortly! Thanks to everyone who visited my blog.

Blog Candy, Fall Supplement & Last Cardstock Match!

Yup! It's a big day here! I got my Fall Supplement in the mail yesterday from TAC and it is packed with little idea cards as well as some great new stamp images. I'm ordering my extra copies today to send out to those to those customers that participated in my preorder special! Don't despair though, it's on PDF and TAC just posted it here: http://theangelcompany.net/fallsupplement.html

Just a tease of the cover!

I'm also posting my last in the series of Cardstock Color matches...to access them easily you can just click on the right sidebar below and choose "color matches" for the whole batch. I wanted to show you how beautifully TAC cardstock matches not only other papers in the Soar With It Collection (SWIC) but with other papers as well, like DCWV. This is one of my favorite combos and I had a card published in the catalog using it (the Elephant Take Pride card)....


and now for the "stuff" you really care about, tee hee...Blog Candy! Everyone loves snowmen (and women!) so let's celebrate with this new $8.95 set from the Fall Supplement and some Icicle Stickles to make some sparkly snow around them!



Just leave me a comment below about which SWIC card colors are your favorite and if you have or are tempted to try them now! If you post as anonoymous, please be sure to leave your email so I can get ahold of you if you win! The cut off will be 12:00 EST on Friday, 19 Sep and I will use the Random Generator to pick a winner!

If you don't get my monthly newsletters, let me know. I include project ideas, TAC specials and sneak peaks, and my own give aways. You won't be bombarded by emails, promise!

Also, shoot me an email if you would like the entire line of exclusive TAC papers and their cardstock coordinates in PDF.

Fall Supplement and Double Dips!

Hey! I'm going to interrupt my Cardstock Color matches series to bring you some exciting news!

Even though I hoped against hope, I never really dreamed that my submissions would make it into The Angel Company catalog. But I was lucky enough to have 3 make the cut!! I am just thrilled and want to share my cards with you!

TAC Fall/Winter Catalog...drumroll, please!!

Here’s my collection of tattered and torn (aka well loved!) catalogs from my time with The Angel Company...I have stamp sets from all of them and often go back to the pages of ideas within. But, good news!! The new Fall/Winter Catalog will debut this weekend and I’ve preordered 100 to be able to offer you the best price. Plus, you’ll receive a coupon from me, for $4 off your first purchase. We will be able to start placing orders from the catalog on June 23rd, 2008.

And hopefully, within the week, you'll be able to check out the “latest” stamps and supplies on my website...just click on The Angel Company logo to the right or visit me at:

http://chris.ismyangel.net/

If you’d like to place an order, please contact me directly since you do NOT earn FREE stamps via our online ordering. Both customers and hostesses benefit from The Angel Company’s generous rewards plan. I am happy to take checks, Money Orders, Paypal and Credit Cards.

If you live outside the USA and would like to order from TAC, please contact me since I do ship at reasonable prices overseas!
