April Workshop Sneak Peek

My box of new March/April products arrived last week!  I couldn't wait to try out the new shape maker, as "shapes" is theme of our next workshop.

The shape maker system came with the circle and square cartridges.  A puzzle cartridge is also available.  (Check out the demo video here.) I was pleasantly surprised to find the handle so easy to use - much better than the old shape makers! 

 

 

Thanks to a ton of ideas that I've been "pinning" one of my Pinterest boards, I had my ideas all set.  I was able to complete 5 out of my 6 cards planned for our April workshop.  I love that we chose the fun, vibrant colors of the new Candy Shop Power Palette to complement our shapes theme. 

 

Can you find all the ways I incorporated circles and squares into these designs?

Hope you can join us for relaxing afternoon of crafting on Sunday, April 21.  You'll have to come to the workshop to see what card #6 will be!



Sneak Peak of New Products

Every other month is a new product launch... Here are videos featuring the brand new Shape Maker and a new album (It's a Boy!) in the Fast to Fabulous collection.  Love them both - so excited to order them in March!

 

New May Products

I love when my CM order arrives because it's just like Christmas morning! Yesterday I was especially excited because I had ordered a few of the new May products.  You can always preview pictures of the product, but it's never the same as holding the actual item in your hand.


So in my box was the new Stamper System... This is the first time CM is doing anything stamp related, so I'm curious to try it out. Right now this bundle of 4 sets/inks is on sale for $81 ($98 value).

I also purchased the two new 6x6 stack packs (Achievements and Be Young), Just Because Card Set (can't wait to try this out for an upcoming workshop with the Stamper System), and the Color Vibe 12x12 stack pack.  Love these new, colorful products!

But what I was most excited about in my box was the new Tool Kit.  The "Fantastic 5" of scrapbooking tools includes a multi-purpose tool, dual tip embossing tool, reverse tweezers, precision scissors, and an embossing mat. Tucked away in this adorable box, I think this would make a great gift for any crafter! ($25)

Love the cover design with some familiar CM shapes!

Here are the lovely tools inside!

CM has been launching new products about every other month, so check back later in June for another preview!
