A card for SuziQ

Hi stampers!  I tried to blog yesterday but it just didn't happen.....sigh.  My job is kicking my butt the past few weeks.  I'm hoping I can get my life together this week, ha!  I did manage to get a card made the other day.  This one is for my good little friend Suzi who turned 21 on Saturday (where we were both stuck at a volleyball tournament, ha).

So....what better set to use for a 21st birthday than happy hour????

Happy hour!

Hi stampers!  More new stuff for you today!  I used the happy hour set again last night for this simple but fun card!  It's the only thing I got stamped last night because I decided to FINALLY organize the closet in my new studio....when I moved into my new room I got it pretty much functional and quit moving and organizing, lol!  And every time I had time to clean I chose to stamp instead...can you really blame me?  But the closet was spilling out well into the room so I had to do something about it!  I really was waiting because we need to take another trip to Ikea for more storage stuff....so now I'll have to organize all over again after we go but at least I can see the floor, lol!  Now, let's see if I can get motivated after that to move the rest of my stuff in that's in *cough* two rooms.....

I also culled through my stamp sets and pulled a BUNCH out to get rid of...which is a big deal for a hoarder....I mean collector like myself!  I hope to get organized soon and have a sale both in real life and post here. So, be on the lookout!

Now on to the card!  I used three of my most favorite things:  summer starfruit, happy hour, and the chevron embossing folder!  I have been on a very clean and simple kick so this falls right in line.....

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps: Happy hour
Paper:  Whisper white
Ink:  Summer starfruit, rich razzleberry
Accessories:  Apothecary accents framelits, chevron embossing folder, brights brads

I just love that folder, it's so yummy!!!!  I DO really wish we had a trellis folder and/or background stamp kind of like the pattern in the wine glass!!!  THAT would be ah-mah-zing!!!!  It's so trendy right now I and I just love trellis pattens...and chevrons and polka dots...and....:-)

Hopefully I can get lots of things stamped this weekend!

Happy stamping!

Raspberry Cheers!

Hi stampers!  I've got more new catalog stuff to show today!  You'll have to excuse the colors...they are very similar to yesterday's post...I'm kind of stuck in a color rut!  I can't seem to use any other colors!  I've actually really struggled in general to create the past few days or even the past week or so!  You'd think that will all these new goodies I'd have mojo out the wa-zoo but not so much.  My work schedule changes in the summer and I think I'm still adjusting to that and add to the fact that I'm in a totally different office this week doing a totally different job than I usually do and maybe that's part of it!  I'm hoping to get in the swing of things soon and hopefully I can get the creativity flowing!

Anywho....I couldn't wait to get my hands on the new happy hour set!  It's so cute!  Now, I'm not a big drinker or anything:-)  I like a tasty drink now and then (especially the fun colored ones that come in funky glasses like this set) but I'm getting too old to have too many..not fun the next day!!! :-)  I don't know how people in Vegas drink those big yard long drinks (can you tell I'm excited about vacation, lol)! They are so big...so not only would I not be able to stand let alone walk after one (or part of one) but I don't think I could consume that much liquid!  And then I'd have to make a pit stop every 10 minutes, lol!  But, like I said, this set is super cute!  I love how each glass has a fun and modern pattern in it! 

I kept this card simple and used my new DSP stack for the new in colors in keeping with the polka dots:

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Happy hour
Paper:  Whisper white, summer starfruit
Ink:  Summer starfruit, raspberry ripple
Accessories:  Modern label punch, summer starfruit stitched satin ribbon

I also love all the little accents in the set like the little citrus slice.  They make the little drinks so fun!  The fonts are fun too!

Ok, now I want a fruity drink, hehe!

Happy stamping!
