Stamp to the Max Holiday Catalog Blog Hop

Aren't you guys excited?!?!  Today is the first day you can order from the new Holiday Catalog.  Notice I didn't say Holiday "mini" Catalog?  That's right... the new catalogs are bigger and last longer and there is nothing mini about them.  Woo Hoo!

Welcome to the hop.  You are going to enjoy a sampling of what the new Holiday Catalog has to offer.  I am showing you some awesome cards using the Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set and Matching Cannery Framelits.  It is probably one of my absolutely most favorite things in the catalog. 

This cute little mason jar is worth buying the stamp set alone.  I envision so many possibilities for him.  If you are a canner...or just love the country vintage look, you need this set. 

The first card I have for you uses the Orchard Harvest DSP as some background patterns.  There is no hand cutting involved in this card! It is all done with framelits.  Add a little Baker's Twine to finish it off and you have yourself a card for all occasions.

The second card I have for you is using the same stamp set, paper, and framelits.  But, do you spy the new embossing folder?  Wood grain is back baby! Plus, the new embossing folders are slightly bigger for the same price...bonus!  This card is perfect for those back to school situations.  Wouldn't your child's teacher just love to get a card knowing that you are thinking of them when school starts?  Teaching is one hard job...I know this.

Well, I hope you liked my projects.  If you did and you would like to see more like them....here is how.  These projects are from the exclusive Training to the Max monthly tutorial for August.  This isn't even half of what you get in the tutorial.  :)  If you would like to purchase the tutorial for you personal use, or be part of Max's business coaching program you can go to the Training to the Max website and check it out.  It is well worth you money.  :)

Now you are off to the next blog on the hop.  Have a great day and stop by again soon.
