Heart Flower

Hi Stampers,
As promised, here is another card with the same flower that I posted on Monday.  I used Lucky Limeade and Pool Party.  I would never have used these colors together but they are in the Everyday Enchantment DSP and look so pretty together. It is so funny but sometimes it takes me hours to do JUST ONE CARD. I try so many different color combinations until I decide on the ones I want to use. This color or that, emboss with the Big Shot, ribbon???  These are the questions that go through my mind.  I wasn't sure if I wanted ribbon but as you can see, I went with the crochet ribbon.  Still not quite sure if I really needed it.  So, if you find that you take an inordinate amount of time for one card, you are not alone!!!

Thank you for stopping by!  Hope your week is going well!

Card for a Friend

Happy Monday!  Hope you had a nice weekend and didn't feel too tired this morning.

My card is one that I am giving to a friend today to thank her for several surprise gifts she has given to me recently.  Hope she likes it!  I have bling on the sentiment because she LOVES bling!! This was a very easy card to put together.  The hardest part was figuring out what colors I wanted to use.  The flower was made using my Heart punch and the Everyday Enchantment DSP (if you are in my Hostess Club, we are going to make one of these flowers at our next meeting).  Did you notice the cute fabric covered brad in the middle??  It is a sneak peek and you'll be able to order it on April 1st!!! On Wednesday I will have the same card but with different colors and paper so be sure to stop by!

Quilted Hello

Can you tell that I love this Everyday Enchantment paper??!!  It is available through Sale-a-bration only until March 31st.  I love the colors in all of the paper in this pack and will be so sad to see it go.  The inspiration for my card today came from fellow demonstrator, Dawn Olchefske.  I used the Postage Stamp punch for each of my squares.  I glued my squares onto a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock which then went onto a piece of  Poppy Parade cardstock.  The base of my card is Lucky Limeade.  I made the bow with my Lucky Limeade Ruffled ribbon.  The Calypso Coral organdy ribbon that I have going through the button was another freebie that I received in the Sale-a-bration catalog. It comes with 1 roll of Lucky Limeade and 1 roll of Calypso Coral ribbon AND 30 printed Designer brads!  They can be yours as well with a $50 order, before tax and shipping. My hello was stamped with the set Tiny Tags and then punched out with the Jewelry Tag punch.  I put a glue dot on the tag and put it underneath my bow.

One hour less today to get things done but it will be so nice when it stays light later!  Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!!  Thanks for stopping by!

Sneak Peek!

I have a Sneak Peek for you today!  This cute little purse was made using the new Petite Purse Bigz die for the Big Shot.   It will be available from April 1st until April 30th  as a Sneak Peek offer.  It will go away but then be available on June 1st in the new 2012-2013 Idea Book and Catalog.  It is very cute. I can see one for each guest at a baby shower (I've had baby showers on my mind since finding out I am going to be a grandma for the first time!!!) or just a fun way to give a little treat to someone.  To give you an idea how big it is, I have 7 chocolate eggs inside. I put a button on the front and right below it is a little tab that tucks into a slit.  The paper I used is Everyday Enchantment.  This pack of beautiful paper can be yours free with a $50 order (before shipping/tax) but only until March 31st!!  If you would like to place an order, click here!

Have a wonderful Saturday night and don't forget to put your clock ahead one hour before you go to bed!

Everyday Enchantment

Isn't this paper BEAUTIFUL?  I love it!  You can get this paper for FREE!  You can choose free products for every $50 you spend during Sale-a-bration!  If you would like to see the other items you can choose from, you can download the catalog by clicking the Sale-a-bration icon on the left. 

I used Lucky Limeade and Pool Party cardstock for the base of my card and my flowers.  After punching my flowers out with the new Blossom Punch, I ran them through the Big Shot and the Finial Press embossing folder.  The center of my flower was stamped in Pool Party ink with the Fresh Vintage Stamp set (another Sale-a-bration free product).  The adorable brad can also be yours for free as it is included in the Everyday Enchantment Ribbon and Brad pack.  "Thank you" is from one of my favorite sets called Short and Sweet. 

You can order 24/7 from my SU! website!  Thank you for stopping by!
