Stampin' Up! Sneak Peeks!

Hello Hello,

It has been a while!!  I have a new card with some serious Stampin' Up! Sneak Peeks!!  Almost everything on this card is a bit of a tease for you right now!  I CASE'd this from a fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  When you become a Demonstrator you become part of this online community that is a whole new level of inspiration!  I feel so priviledged to be able to share with those ladies (and gents of course), I only hope that the find my samples as "share-worthy."  Contact me for more information on how to become part of the Stampin' Up! community yourself!  Featuring the new 2012-2014 In Colours: Gumball Green, Primrose Petals, Raspberry Ripple, Summer Starfruit and Midnight Muse.  I also managed to use every stamp that is in the Betsy's Blossoms Set!  And I just love the shimmer that you get when you use Iridescent Ice embossing powder!  Really kicks it up a notch!

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Betsy's Blossoms, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Cardstock: Whisper White, Midnight Muse, Raspberry Ripple.

Ink: Midnight Must, Gumball Green, Summer Starfruit, Raspberry Ripple, Primrose Petals, Tangerine Tango, Versamark.

I am back with another Pals Paper Arts Challenge Entry!  I am just loving the challenge that Pals Paper Arts offers my crafting heart!  I do have to admit that I like the colour challenges a bit better than the sketches, because I feel like I am better able to be creative with the colours.  But I do still like the sketches.  It always helps me open up and use different stamp sets and often colour schemes that I normally wouldn't!  If you haven't played in any challenges before, this is one that is super enjoyable and shouldn't be missed!!

Last challenge (okay not last challenge, but last colour challenge), for the first time I was a Pals Paper Arts Pick!  It was soo exhilerating to see my card in that top 3!  Never happened to me before, so I felt pretty excited about that!!  Yay!  Made me even more motivated to aprticipate and see my card up there again!  Now I know that I can do it!

Anyways, another fun card today.  The colours for the challenge are Baja Breeze, Calypso Coral and So Saffron.  The colours look beautiful together!  And even better is that I never would have put them together!!

I decided on a fairly simple card, but it is using a few things that will be/are retired now!  The crimper, which I am going to miss because it really gives you a nice little bit of texture when you need it.  The stamp set mixed bunch which was in the occasions mini is done now...maybe it will show up in the annual catalogue, which would be awesome becuase I love this stamp set (and the coordinating punch)!  And also the sentiment is from Smarty Pants which will be retiring at the end of May!

Recipe:

Cardstock: Baja Breeze, Whisper White, Calypso Coral, So Saffron.

Stamps: Mixed Bunch, Smarty Pants.

Inks: So Saffron, Calypso Coral, Baja Breeze.

Embellishments: Calypso Coral Ruffled Ribbon.

Tools: Crimper, 1" Circle Punch, Blossom Punch.

Adhesives: SNAIL, Sticky Strip, Stampin' Dimensionals. 

Thanks for checking me out today!  And hope to see you back soon!!
