Happy Big Day!

Well you can see I am still playing with my Flower Shop stamp set!  Love those pansies and the matching punch!  But I also got out the new Chalk Talk bundle from the new catalog to add to it.   The Chalk Talk Bundle includes the stamp set and the die cut set to cut out the cute stamps!  I used the stamp 'Happy Big Day' from the set and cut it out with the matching die cut.  I then layered it on one of the other die cuts that came with the set.  I added a few brads for a little bling.  I chose some matching designer paper for the background and then punch out a few more pansies in coordinating colors.

This is one of the many wonderful things about Stampin' Up's products; they coordinate together!  Ink pads, designer paper, ribbon and other accessories can be purchased in the same colors to help you coordinate it all.  That is why it is so simple to come up with such cute cards.  Hey, if I can do it,
so can you!

Take a browse through our new catalog and check out all the products.  There are kits that come with everything you need to make some cards and all you have to do is put the pieces together.  They are really simple and we LOVE simple!

Flower Shop

Here goes!  My favorite new item from the 2013 - 2014 catalog is the Flower Shop stamp set with the matching pansy punch!  In this card I use two of the different styles of  pansies  in the stamp set.  Stampin' Up makes it sooooo easy to make beautiful pansies with the matching punch!  I added a few dimensionals behind the flowers and they appear to be popping out at you!

I used some designer paper for the background.  Right now there is a sale going on at Stampin' Up.  Buy three designer paper packs and get a fourth one free!  Just click the button on the right to shop at my website and check out all the great deals going on.  The sale ends soon so check it out!

Pinwheel card

No excuses!  It has been a month since my last post!  Here is a fun card I made with the Sizzlits S Die that makes a little pinwheel fast and easy!
Add a brad in the center and you are ready to spin!  The Die is in our Spring catalog and sells for only $4.95!  Add a little toothpick and now it is on a
stick.  Soo many uses for it. 

It is less than a week and the new Stampin' Up catalog will be available and online!  Don't forget to check out the Retired lists that are posted online.  Once
those items are gone, they are gone!

Get well soon!

Hi Everyone!  This week's project had me thinking Get Well cards which I didn't have any of.  

I recently purchased the Stampin' Up stamp set "Thoughts & Prayers" because I also needed a few sympathy cards to have on hand.   This two box set includes eight stamps, two which are in my card above, for $25.95 (wood) or $18.95 (clear).

In this card I used the Pear Pizzazz ink color which was an In Color and is returning in our upcoming new catalog as a Subtles color.  I used my Oval Framelits collection to do the layering and added a ribbon on the bottom for more background.  I also added some little pearls to the tree which I thought really gave it some life!

  All these wonderful products can be purchased from my website by clicking on the above button to the right.  The new Stampin' Up catalog will be coming out May 31st with new ideas and inspiration for all of us who love to stamp!  Stay tuned for more information.

Sorry it has been so long but with working seven days a week, I find I don't has as much time as I would like to make cards!  Wanting to get something online, I took the opportunity to post one of the 'simply' cards I just made for some friends.  They were looking for cards that they could use for many occasions.

I recently purchased one of the single stamps that Stampin' Up offers.  This one, Hello, Hello is a great one for those occasions when you want to send a note to someone or when you have to mail someone something and you want to include a card.  I did this card in Elegant Eggplant, a dark purple.  I also made cards in Calypso Coral and Island Indigo. 

I hope to have more posted this week.  Stand by!  I promise to do better!
