Mailable Monday - Washi Style

Hi stampers!  Super quick post today to go with a super fast card!

I used the new washi tape and clear alphabet set to make a quick birthday card.  I got the design idea from a card I saw on Pinterest that used some other products...and of course, I thought "I can do that with SU"!

Stamps:  Designer typeset
Paper:  Confetti white, daffodil delight
Ink:  Basic gray
Accessories:  Washi tape, calypso coral baker's twine

I hand cut the flame and easy peasy it was done!

I gotta skee-daddle!

Happy stamping!

Mailable Monday - Special Delivery

Hi stampers!  Here we are back at Monday...how did we get here????  Oh wait....I worked on Saturday so that's where my weekend went! ;-)  And unfortunately I'm starting a work week of 7 days...gotta work a bunch on Saturday and Sunday this week.  That's no good at all.  Don't they know I NEED to stamp????? :-)

I'm using the sent with love bundle again.  This set lends itself really well to CAS and mailable (flat) cards!  It also combines with the designer typeset set too! And speaking of our photopoly sets we have a new one released just last week!  It's kind of sassy and it's called bombs away.

Ok and if that wasn't good enough....there are a couple of other exciting things starting today through May 30th!  First off if you sign up with me (and remember you can choose the items you want...want Bombs Away and a bunch of other stuff???  Sign up!!!!!!) you can get an extra $30 FREE!  That's right, get $155 worth of stampy goodness for $99.  Holla!!!!!  It's a great time to sign up because not only will you get all the perks of being a demo it's also a great time since you'll have access to the new catalog pre-order over a month earlier than regular customers!  Get your hands on all the new stuff AND get an extra 10% discount on your first order over $150!!!!  And I'd be more than happy to be your upline!  No need to be local!  We can have just as much fun online as in person;-)

And then there is a new hostess special as well.  If you host a party (I can do online parties if you aren't local and ANY of your friends can order anywhere from the US and you'll get credit) or place an order with me either directly or through my online store you can get an EXTRA $30 of hostess credit so THIRTY dollars more FREE stuff!!!!  Contact me if you have questions about either one!

So this card is based off of one I had pinned using another companies stamps.  I thought, "hey, that would work perfect with our stuff!"  I really like browsing the "competition" (hehe) to get inspiration!  I'm really pleased with how it turned out...except for the silly little ink smudge I got on it.  Grrrrr!  I hate when that happens and it's happened a lot lately...I think I need to clean my scrubber....

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Sent with love, designer typeset
Paper:  Whisper white, pool party
Ink:  Pool party, island indigo, calypso coral
Accessories:  Postage stamp punch

I really hope the sent with love stamp is in the new catalog but who knows....it's just so cute!

Happy stamping!

Mailable Monday - Colored eggs and clear stamps

Hi stampers!  Another weekend has come and gone!  Hope everyone had a good Easter!  We did!  I ate way too much food of course but at least I went for a run before church...and I got lots of puppy cuddles from my new puppy-in-law...although I did have to share her with my hubby :-)

And we need to talk about something....Pinterest.  Ok, so you all know I love it BUT there are some serious downsides (besides the time sucking and the money it costs me when I find things I HAVE to have, lol)!  For one, I wanted to make lemon cookies that I had seen for Easter....and so did everyone else on the site because Wal Mart was OUT of lemon cake mixes, lol!  And what's even worse the "colored deviled eggs" kept showing up on FB pictures (just looking at them freaks me out) and worse yet my in-laws are on Pinterest (and so is hubby now....eek) and THEY made the cursed colored deviled eggs!!!!  Why you ask is this a problem as I LOVE my FIL's eggs?  Well because I have a phobia about eating things that are abnormal colors!!!!  Remember when they had that green and purple ketchup?  I never even got near it but just seeing the commercials was enough to make me need therapy!!!!!  At least I found this out at church and had some time to come to grips with my fears....and I DID eat the colored eggs because they are so good but I totally closed my eyes!!!  :-)  Anyone else with me in my phobia of not-normal-colored-foods?????

Ok speaking of colors I do love the colors in the sent with love DSP AND I love the new clear or photopolymer stamp set!  I was totally skeptical about these but I love them!  They are super high quality.  I thought they'd be all squishy but they are very firm and stamp really well with our firm foam ink pads.  They are super sticky to the blocks too!

So, here is one of my first attempts with the new set!  Why did I wait so long to get it???

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Designer typeset
Paper:  Whisper white, island indigo, sent with love DSP
Ink:  Calypso coral, pool party, island indigo
Accessories:  None...other than a colored staple I happened to have

Isn't it cute?  I love that little speech bubble and it's super easy to stamp words since you can see the letters through the stamps!

Happy stamping!
