Freaking Excited

Hi stampers!  It's been quiet over here with grandma visiting for over a week and the prepping for new carpet we just got.  But, it's time for this month's Control Freak's blog hop so here I am!


This month's theme is pretty exciting, it's something old/something new.  One of my favorite things to do is use current catalog stuff with new pre-order items!  It's amazing how well old products and new ones can work together!  Speaking of amazing, you may have come from Cindy's blog and her amazing projects, but don't worry if you didn't!  We make an endless loop so just keep clicking!

So here's my first project.  We got this stamp set at On Stage (Moroccan nights) and while it's not something I'd EVER pick, I challenged myself to use it.  It works perfectly with the bohemian DSP and washi tape from the current catalog.  I stuck a gold button on there too to try to use those up!


My next card combines the watercolor wings set which is carrying over with some new in colors.  I tried really hard to resist this set but I finally broke down and got it when I saw the new catalog.  You'll see some flirty flamingo and sweet sugarplum for my new items.  The vellum DSP is layered over a panel of sweet sugarplum and it just softens it ever so much.

I hope you enjoyed this month's projects and I hope it inspires you to try something old with something new! And make sure you go check out Heidi's projects and everyone else's too!  It's a freaky good time ;-)



Happy stamping!

Thanks for your comments. I probably won't respond unless you ask a direct question (because I know my limits, lol) but I read and appreciate every single one <3
