Stamping with Lynn

Collage Curios Stamp Set, Sneak Peak

Playing with new product again!  My card base is Bashful Blue, and other blues are Midnight Muse, and Marina Mist.  Circle sizes are the 1", 1 1/4", 1 3/8".  I stamped the small circle word stamp in Bashful Blue, then inked the butterfly with Midnight Muse.  The sentiment, "Oh, Happy Day", is from the Bloomin' Marvelous stamp set, and the "Thanks!" sentiment is from the Vintage Verses Sale A Bration stamp set.  I think this technique is called graduating circles, maybe?  I also used the new Honeycomb Textured Embossing folder, which is available to order January 3rd!!!  I submitted this card to the True Blue SUO Challenge #61.

Henry Says stamp set

Lookie, lookie!  I had this idea in my head and I love it when I can make it work!  Think Pinnochio.  Yes, I wanted to make his truck "grow".  This card did take alot of masking to get all placed just where I wanted but I like how it turned out!  I hold it closed with a new item from the upcoming Spring Catalog, Cute Clips (Hung Up), which includes the arrow, hanger, and thought bubble.  The stamp set is from the upcoming catty as well.  Isn't it cute?  YILM, hehehe  (Yes, I love myself).  The card base is Marina Mist with a layer of Bashful Blue textured with the Chevron Folder.  I hope you like!  This card fits the True Blue challenge at SUO Challenges so I have submitted it.

Before and After Preorder Arrival

I even took a leaf out of the table so my tablecloth would fit better, figuring I could do with a little less table top for a few days.  Yeah, right!

Probably a half hour later, tsk tsk.  Creating is messy work, but oh, so fun, when it is new, new, new!

Downline Gathering, cookie/candy exchange, and swaps

It ended up being a smaller group at the last minute because of illness, work commitments, etc. but we enjoyed the evening anyway.  We ate Southwest Soup, sampled the goodies, stamped, and laughed!

Our swaps using anything from the Upcoming Spring or Sale A Bration products!

Hearts a Flutter Bundle

Lots of upcoming new product!  Can you spot all the new?  I used the Hearts a Flutter stamp set and framelits which can be bought as a bundle with a savings of 15%.  I also used the upcoming Sale A Bration Petite Curly Label punch to punch out the "Love" from the Tiny Tags stamp set.  The I added the new Designer Builder Brad with some stamping from the Hearts a Flutter (see it also on the heart image), and punched with the Itty Bitty Shapes circle punch.  I attached this punched circle with a mini glue dot, and then covered it with the included epoxy bubble. I also used the Hearts Collection Framelits Dies to die cut the red heart.  This works perfectly for this set as well. 

Secret Garden Bundle

I stamped the flower and leaf images from the Secret Garden stamp set with Black Stazon, Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight, and Old Olive.  The card base is Whisper White with a layer of Marina Mist.  And no, I did not cut out all the flower and leaf images.  I used the Secret Garden Framelits dies.  They did all the work for me!  You can buy the framelits and the stamp set separately or as a bundle, saving you 15%.  The sentiment is from Sassy Salutations. I meant to add more Basic Pearls but took the pic before I got it done.  This is another sneak peak from the upcoming Stampin'Up! Spring Catalog.

Sneak Peak - New Simply Scored Borders Scoring Plate, New Butterfly Punch

New product!  A cute little butterfly punch, Parker's Patterns designer series paper, 3/8" Marina Mist Striped Organdy Ribbon, and the Simply Scored Borders Scoring Plate!  The card is white on white, sentiment is stamped in Marina Mist and is from the Bring on the Cake stamp set.  The butterflies are Marina Mist, Bashful Blue, and the designer series paper.  It is hard to see but I used the Simply Scored for the embossing along the bottom edge.  You can start ordering from the Stampin'Up!
