Hi Stampin' Friends I am having so much fun playing with my new toys. I think that the From My Heart Stamp Set will become one of my favorites and "go to" stamp sets. Reminiscent of Victorian apothecary labels, this exquisitely designed eight-piece set is a must-have for those who covet that vintage look. Clever sentiments and intricate designs combine to make this a stamp set you'll want to use… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends Today's post is a quick one because I'm getting ready for tomorrow's New Catalog Party. I did want to show you one of the cards the attendees will be making. Can you see the embossing on the bottom of the card? It's a new embossing folders called Delicate Designs and it's gorgeous!l The stamp set is called Everything Eleanor and it's (I think) one of the most… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends! Another beautiful day in the neighborhood! Love, love this weather. Hope you are having nice weather where you live. I made this card for my daughter and son-in-law. Yes, his name is David (same as my husband). They even have the same initials (DB)! This is more my style than Stephanie's style. She likes clean and simple, I like shabby chic. But I think she will like this… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends It's another beautiful weekend in our part of the woods. I love it! Though I did hear from one of my downline (Hi Valerie!) that she received some snowflakes today so it's not spring everywhere and certainly not in the north part of the US. I'm using the two step Simply Soft Stamp Set one last time before it retires on Thursday, 31 May 2012. I'm also using… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends I am so excited to be able to show you some gorgeous new designer series paper called Comfort Cafe. It is absolutely beautiful and reminds me of my grandmother! I am also working on 3D project (Petite Purse Bigz L Die) that goes with the card, but I didn't finish it in time for today's post. I'll have it ready for tomorrow's post. The sentiment is layered… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends I love, love the Beau Chateau Designer Series Paper and decided to use it for today's card. I'll miss it but I am sure that Stampin' Up! will have some equally gorgeous new DSP for us to drool over! Even though the coordinated color, Marina Mist, was listed in the catalog, I decided to use Baja Breeze because it seem to match a lot better. The pearls… Read More »

Hi Stampin' Friends So how many of your stamp sets are retiring? I didn't do too bad – only 33 of mine are retiring. I was so glad to see that Lovely as a Tree is staying and I think it will be available in clear mount in the next catalog! I'm sorry to see Sincere Salutations go but I've started using the My Digital Studio more and more for… Read More »
Hi Stampers Just ten days until the retirement list comes out – always an exciting time for me because I am keeping my fingers crossed that not too many of my stamp sets retire! I'll be posting a "guess which stamp sets will retire" contest on my blog on 10 April 2012. So if you want to participate, check in on that date because it will only run a couple of… Read More »
