Each month, I attend a unit meeting where we have the opportunity to trade samples of our work. The theme for the January trade was "NEW Product... using products from the
Sell-a-bration! or the new
Occasions Mini catalogs." I love the new
Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Stack from the
Occasions Mini. And since I don't often work with shades of orange (except for Halloween), I thought I should challenge myself to play with Pumpkin Pie card stock.
Here is a sample of my trade:

The January meeting included a stampin' project. (I love these!!!) Here is the box that I made:

In my next post, I will show you how this box became the inspiration for my trade for a card swap that I joined through
Stampin' Connection (a wonderful site for
Stampin' Up! Demonstrators where we can connect with other people who share the same passion for creating).
Until then, what will you create next?
