What are you waiting for?

Stampin'Up!'s exclusive 2007/2008 "In Colors" come in card stock, ink pads, ink refills and ribbons and they will retire shortly, so if you need to stock up or maybe even start your collection, now is the time. After August 10 these beautiful colors will be gone. As a demo I am really going to miss demonstrating with these colors, but it will be nice to use them for my own personal use.

Place your order today so that you will be able to use these beautiful colors for months or even years to come. As a special bonus starting today, July 9 and until July 25 I will give you 10% off of all retiring "In Color" card stock, ink pads, ink refills and ribbon orders. And as an added bonus, I will also be giving 10% off of retiring stamps. Standard tax and shipping will still apply. So now what are you waiting for? Call me today, don't delay! Time is running out!

New take on old punch

I had an idea the other night for this card. You know, they hit you at the oddest times and places and you're glad people aren't reading your mind, but when creativity strikes............So yesterday I finally put it to paper. I used the 5 petal flower punch that SU has had out for awhile now and punched it out. Then I took the guard off of the ticket corner punch and used it on the tips of the 5 petal flower, like this.....





I then layered two flowers together. The middle flower is punched using the Boho Blossoms punch. I used the White Signo gel pen to add the dots. The leaves are the 5 petal flower punch cut. I used the Stem Sayings for the stems. The scallop edge punch was used for the bottom of the card. That punch will be available August 11. Colors used here are Cameo Coral, Apricot Appeal, Certainly Celery, Whisper White (Apricot Appeal ink w/Canvas background) Certainly Celery grosgrain ribbon. The main flowers are up on dimensionals as are the middles.



Have a great day and stamp a little!

A Sneak Peak

On on Tuesday, SU demonstrators got to see a sneak peak of some of the new products being released in the new catalog that will be unveiled on August 11. We were able to purchase these to. Well I couldn't sleep Monday night for some reason and kept tossing and turning. I looked at the clock and it said 3:00 a.m. My mind instantly thought, hey the preview should be up by now. Sure enough when I logged in to SU it was up. Since I was up, why not place my order? I swear to you I've never ordered anything in the middle of the night before. I also expedited my order as well. It's a little treat I allow myself a couple times of year. I guess I said all that, so that I could show you a card made with some of the new awesome products. So without further ado I give you "Sock Monkey".....................................

I think this set is so cute and you can be assured you will be seeing lots of him. Is that new colors you see? Why yes they are. And could that be a new scallop edged punch? Yes, Jessica Z. no more taking the guard off of the corner rounder. *wink* Well, I'll be giving you more sneak peaks in the next while, so stay tuned. And in the mean time don't forget to get those stamp sets the will be retiring and look for the retiring accessories list on July 21. I'll be offering a special next week as well.

Have a great 4th of July!

A card from a customer

I received payment yesterday from a customer and imagine my surprise when it included this card. Thanks Onnalee! Not many of my customers send me stuff with SU. They tell me they are afraid it won't meet my expectations. Honestly I have no expectations. I love to see what others do and when it's SU stuff I am overly excited. So if you'd like to share some of your work with me (either through the mail or email) please do and I'll be glad to share it here on my blog. It's always great to see the creativity of others.
