Hi Stampers  I was so excited about the Holiday Mini Catalog and my favorite top ten that I forgot to post this card.  It's for the New Techniques Class on Friday and the technique the ladies will learn is called Delft Tile.  Here's the other card I made for class.   I'll be back tomorrow with a card using Gently Falling and the Spice Cake Designer Series Paper from the… Read More »

Paisley Petals Big Shot Project

Hi Stampers Hope you had a wonderful weekend!  The weather around here was in the 90's but gorgeous!

Creative Elements

Hi Stampers I am such a happy camper!  It has started to cool down in our area and I heard it may even be in the 80's tomorrow!  Doesn't take much to make me happy!  You probably get tired of me saying "I love this set!"  I can't help it – I love so many of the sets in the new catalog.  And this one will be one of my… Read More »

Melon Mambo Fabulous Florets

Top Note Fun Flowers & Blog Candy

Hi Stampers  I decided I wanted something girly and frilly today!  I broke out the Wisteria Wonder Card Stock (beautiful color!) and Flirtatious Specialty Designer Series Paper finally!  I've had it for a while but every time I buy something new, I seem to hang on to it before I decide to use it.  I was the same way when I was quilting – I collected fat quarters and felt they… Read More »

Happiness Shared with Love Letters DSP

Hi Stampers!  I love the gorgeously life-like flowers in our Happiness Shared Stamp Set and decided to use it with the First Edition Designer Series Paper and the retiring Love Letter Designer Series Paper.  I also included the retired Raven Lace Trim and Black Flourish Designer Jewels from the Holiday Mini Catalog.  The floral image from the Happiness Shared Stamp Set was stamped with Versamark on the First Edition DSP.  I… Read More »

Goodbye, Goodbye

Hi Stampers  I think that this is my favorite sentiment from the retiring All the Holidays Stamp Set.  Whether you need a quick Mother’s Day card or a creepy Halloween tag, this assortment of greetings covers most of the year's holidays! I used it with the Elegant Soiree Designer Series Paperwhich is also retiring on 30 June 2011.  One of the things I love about Stampin' UP! is that everything coordinates! … Read More »
