Happy Birthday Zadie

A sweet card for my little cousin Zadie!  She is so growing up.  We actually share the same birthdate.  How cool is that?  I worked hard to arrange for that!!!

I've combined 2 challenges for this design &  I love how it turned out!

DSP -  Maritime, Regals

Cardstock - Blue Lagoon, Crushed Curry

The rosettes are so easy and fun to make with our Simply Scored Scoring Tool & Diagonal Plate & a hot glue gun with our Silicone Craft Sheet!  To top it off, I used a glittered gold brad.  For the sparkly gold centers of my stars, I used our Gold Glitz Dazzling Details (a glue with glitter).

Enjoy!

When I think of Summer colors, I usually think of red, white and blue.  Why, you may ask.  First there's Memorial Day, then the Fourth of July & ending with Labor Day.  You knew that was coming, huh?  What colors do you think of?

I started with a card base of Real Red embossed with the TIEF Simply Stripes, a large glittery star (stars & stripes) and fireworks!  Bang!

Happy Summer everyone!!!

Make & Take

For my Make & Take, I wanted to show the scrapbookers the On Film Framelits Die and how fun they look & easy to use!

Basic Black and Whisper White.  So sharp and striking.  I highlighted the center butterfly with Lost Lagoon and a Blender Pen.  

I hope you find something today that will awaken your creativity and find the joy in doing so that I find. 

Blessings

Happy Birthday Aneya

Oh my gosh, I am so behind in mailing this card to her (and my blogging)!  This was such a fun card to make.  I know she will love it.  She is such a cutie!

The colors I used were Purely Pomegranate, Pink Pirouette and Gumball Green.  I used 3 punches; Boho Flowers, Itty Bitty Shapes and the Bird Builder.  

Do you see the cute little birds?  They are from the Flock Together stamp set.  

Thanks so much for looking!

Love You

Aren't the colors just yummy?  

Now to get it in the mail and off to my Grandma.

Stampin' Up! New Catalog Party

I  could finally share our new catalog with friends Monday so I invited them over for a little wine & cheese, sweet red grapes & merlot-flavored chocolate cupcakes.  Oh my gosh the cupcake batter was sooo good!  

Good eats, good wine, good friends = a very good time!.

My party theme was inspired by items I found on Pinterest, of course.  I made wine glass charms and coasters, food flags for the three different cheeses.  

I also wanted to create a blackboard effect using Basic Black cardstock and our White Stampin' Chalk Marker.  I had never really shared Stampin' Up's!

Statement of the Heart before so this would be the perfect time.   I chose my pretty crystal picture frame to house it and decorated it with garlands of black, gold & the new In-colors.   

This year my goal was to keep it simple and use what I already had.  I'm so proud of myself - I did just that.
