Trends in Your Business: In the Clouds

Every Thursday on my blog www.andreawalford.com I create a project based on a current hot trend in the paper crafting industry.  The purpose of my Thursday Trend Watch posts are to show you how you can re-create those same “hot looks” using all Stampin’ Up! product.  Here on the Demo to Demo blog, I’m planning on taking that trend and talking to you about how you can use it in your business.

Creating a cloud template is actually extremely easy.  By far the easiest way to do it would be to use the scalloped oval punch to create the clouds.  If you want more realistic clouds then you can do what I did and freehand draw the clouds onto acetate, cut them out and then use them as your template. I used Dotto adhesive to hold them in place.  Of course if you don’t have Dotto you could always use a 2-way glue pen, and allow it to dry so that it is a temporary rather than permanent adhesive.

Featuring this fun and whimsical technique as a demo in your workshops or as a project for your clubs or classes allows you to upsell our Stampin’ Sponges, our Dotto adhesive and/or 2-way glue pens, and even the scalloped oval punch if that’s what you use to create the clouds.
