This week I was finally able to open up and play with some of the new products in my preorder from the 2023 Annual Catalog. The first thing I happened on was the Timeless Arrangement Bundle. You may think as demos we have access to the entire catalog a month ahead of everyone but we have a selected list we can order from. So The Timeless Arrangement bundle was one of the options that I selected.
Even if you are not interested in another bundle of greetings, do NOT skip over this die set!!!! I love to tuck branches of florals and follage die cuts behind a greeting label or punch, but it’s not the easiest thing to do – you almost feel like you need to be a real FLORIST to make them look right. THIS DIE SET makes it a breeze!!!!
There are 4 different dies that have this rectangle piece connecting the branches as one, so with layering different colors of cardstock you get a beautiful greeting in no time at all!!!!! Thank you Stampin’ Up for thinking ahead and making creating easier!!!

Final Thoughts……
As avid stampers, we are always looking for new and exciting products. Maybe you saw many you liked in this annual catalog, maybe you didn’t. Stampin’ Up gears the annual catalog to ALL stampers from beginning, casual, to avid with all of the tools, cardstock, etc. The MINI CATALOGS are more focused on avid stampers!! Think of it as the old Montgomery Wards, Sears, or JC Penney catalogs!!! The big annual catalogs had all the houseware stuff along with the clothing, shoes, stuff you might not have been interested in. BUT LET THOSE WISH BOOKS show up for Christmas and we dog-eared pages, wrote lists, and studied and dreamed. THAT’S our Stampin’ Up Catalogs!!!!
Maybe you don’t want another greeting stampset so you move past, but DO take a look at the dies!!! As you go through the catalog, dive in an study because there are hidden treasures that are easily skipped over. Until next time, keep stamping, keep crafting, and God Bless!!!
