Watercolor Trio

I finally broke down and got this stamp set. I liked it when I first saw it and it was on my list. There are so many great Stamp sets in the 2010 Summer Mini Catalog that I had to pace myself. Yesterday I got my shipment and whipped out this card. I think it is so elegant. I will be using this card for my Great-Aunt Elizabeth's birthday card. She will be 94 in July and I think she will love this card. I cased the concept from a card on Splitcoast Stampers. I am not sure of her name, but if it was you, Thanks so much for sharing!

Supply List:

Card Stock: Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive

Ribbon: Rich Razzleberry Polka Dot Grosgrain (this is retiring so order TODAY!!)

Stamp Set: Watercolor Trio (2010 Summer Mini)

Accessories: Big Shot (you need one of these!), Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Scallop Oval punch and oval punch, stampin' dimensionals

, dazzling diamonds

Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think of my card! The colors are gorgeous together and really pop. I am off to make it in Melon Mambo now.

Happy Stampin'

Blissful Bride

I created this card using the new Blissful Bride (#120036) set in the Summer Mini Catalog. My sister is getting married in September and this will be her Bridal Shower invitation. I also entered this as a swap for our Team Meeting on Saturday and won a $25 Stampin' Up! gift certificate from Janet Wakeland! I was so excited and surprised! I have been truly blessed by this and I give God all the praise for blessing me with this gift.

Supplies:

Card stock: Very Vanilla, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive and Orchid Opulence

Ink: Black Staz-On, Rich Razzleberry

Accessories: Big Shot (you need one of these!), Floral Fusion Sizzlit, Oval Scallop Frame, Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder, Silver Brad, and Two step bird punch (just the leaves), Dazzling Diamonds

Thanks for looking! I hope you enjoy this card. Please leave me a comment and tell me what you think!

Happy Stampin',

Long Time no post!

I know, I know. I have been gone from blogging world for a long time. I am so sorry. I have been sick and now I am better. I have a TON of things to share so I am going to dig right in and show you....

Tonight is the premier of Twilight Saga: Eclipse! I am so excited about this movie. Eclipse is my favorite book out of the whole group. I love each book individually but if I had to pick a favorite, Eclipse would be the one.

I was struggling with what to make everyone and was checking my email and saw this post.  I knew my searching was over. Cute and simple. They are sooooo easy to make and I added my own touch for my friends. I am going to put in some candy and a bookmark for them. I know it will put a smile on their faces and I love that. That is the reason that I became a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. To share what I love!

For my version of the boxes I used Basic Black, Real Red and Whisper White card stock. I am sticking with the theme of the book covers. I added Dazzling Diamonds to Edward's name. It sparkles like he does.

I would love to know what you think! Bloggers LOVE comments.

I am off to make some more posts so stay tuned!

Happy Stampin,
Melissa
