Same Sketch

Hi stampers!  So I realized as I was going to post this, it's basically the same sketch as the card I posted yesterday :-)  It must be one of my go-to's.  It's funny since I didn't even realize as I was creating it, I just wanted to use this suite and this is what I came up with!

This DSP is so gorgeous!  I didn't need any focal images since I cut out some of the flowers!

A tiny sentiment from Itty Bitty Greetings was the perfect addition as well as a few of our new Adhesive Backed Sequins.  I'm also just over the moon that Mint Macaron is back.  It's SUCH a pretty color!  

Happy stamping!

Share What You Love Early Release

Hi stampers!  Happy Tuesday!  I'm still falling behind in my stamping and posting but this time it's because I did approximately 1000 things around the house for a change yesterday :-)

And happy May!  Did you know that YOU can get your hands on some stuff from the upcoming catalog NOW????  SU is releasing three bundles using the Share What You Love Suite, plus you can grab the new in color ink pads as well!

You can click HERE to see exactly what is in each bundle in my store.  There is a beginner bundle, a medium bundle, and a gotta have it all bundle ;-)  Note, that in the biggest bundle, you can get the Statement of the Heart Stamp Set and it's the only way to get it!

This suite is gorgeous and is probably my favorite DSP of all time.  It's got a million colors in it and it's just gorgeous!  Some of the pages have a shimmer finish and note that it's 24 pages so it's a double pack.

The samples they have shared with this one are just amazing, too!  Take a look and I'll share one simple card that I made :-)

See!  So pretty!  I can't wait to recreate that one on the bottom right!  I've been focusing on retired products but I need to start cutting into this DSP and using this suite more and more, it's just so great!

The new Grapefruit Grove is pretty yummy.  It kind of reminds me of sherbet.  And I think you know I have all the heart eyes for Mint Macaron returning!

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions and get your hands on some new stuff a whole month early!

Happy stamping!

Make And Take Monday

Hi stampers!  I hope everyone had a good weekend and happy Monday!  I was in SUCH a funk last week and I have no idea why!  Could be because it's never going to be spring?  It's so cold!  Even in Oklahoma!  Who knows what it is but I'm hoping this week is better and more productive:-)

Speaking of being productive, I did a thing at OnStage!  I actually MADE the make and takes, LOL!  As much as I love stamping, I don't really love making the projects at events.  They aren't usually my style and I don't like sharing all the tools and waiting (LOL), plus I'm usually busy visiting and socializing and don't multi task well ;-)  I also like to design projects as much or more as actually making them.  Anyone else feel that way?

But, I did make all the projects this time and I actually really loved one of them!

I really love this card and I REALLY love the Share What You Love Suite in the upcoming catalog!  It's gorgeous paper and the colors and prints are really amazing!  And what's super exciting, is that while demonstrators can order it now (mine should be here today), customers are going to be able to get their hands on it early, in May!  how fun is that!?

Another awesome thing about this card is that it uses Mint Macaron!  It's one of my all time top favorite colors and I'm so happy to see it coming back!  Isn't it pretty???

The little ticket type tag was made by just chomping off a bit of each corner with a circle punch.  That's a trick I always forget about!  It should have a colored sentiment but I guess the new ink pads weren't ready for the event.  I'd like to remake this one with Tranquil Tide, I think!  See the tiny little pearls there, they are tide and come in a fun pack with colors that coordinate!

See where I mentioned I'm busy talking at events?  I wasn't paying attention and realized I didn't put my doily on before I put my sentiment down.  Whoops!  I was able to fix it real quick by chopping it in half and sliding it in place.  Whew!


Kudos to the concept artist who did this one!  It's my favorite make and take of any event!

Happy stamping!
