A Swap Creation!
Back in January I participated in a swap on one of the many Facebook Groups I am a member of. At the time I owned a lot of current Stampin’ Up! papers and the newest In Colors, but I didn’t have too many current stamp sets. The swap called for the use of all current products and all of the fabulous holiday catalog items weren’t considered current so I pulled out what I had and found the Six Sided Sampler stamp set and matching punch!
I wasn’t sure what to create, so I started stamping images in different patterns and aligning them on my cardstock. I eventually decided that it needed more pop so I added in the touches of Modern Medley designer series paper I had from a paper share. I know the arrangement is a bit unusual, but I really like how this turned out. I used Strawberry Slush, Crisp Cantaloupe, Vanilla, and Basic Black and I think these punched images and designer series paper really stand out and pop! Then to finish the card off I added a simple ‘my friend’ sentiment also found in the Six Sided Sampler stamp set and one In Color Boutique Details!
Paper Shares are always a lot of fun, I love getting a sampling of different paper packs for one low price. In fact, if you would be interested in a share of the designer series paper in Occasions Catalog please let me know. I have packages available that have one 6×6 piece of each design of the Watercolor Wonder, High Tide, Retro Fresh, and Kaleidoscope designer series paper. The price for one of these packages is $8.00 + shipping.
I hope you enjoyed my card today, it was great to have you stop by! Be sure to come back soon for some fun creations! Also, I will be placing an order this weekend so please let me know if there is anything you are looking to order!

Spring is Here – Stampin’ Pretty Pals Blog Hop
Welcome to the Pals March Blog Hop, Spring is Here! This month we are excited to kick-off Spring with our creative projects. We hope enjoy these creations and we hope Spring finds your soon! You may just be starting the blog hop, if so you are in the right spot. I am kicking off the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.
I wasn’t sure what fabulous items I wanted to work with for this hop and I made several projects, but I settled on sharing this card with you all today! I recently ordered the Mosaic Madness Clear Stamp Bundle and matching punch plus this darling embossing folder. I have wanted to use this set for a while and when it all arrived I knew it would work well with this color combination featuring Whisper White, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, and Rich Razzleberry. I wanted something that was simply, but still elegant. I also thought that these colors were bright, fun and refreshing which screams Spring to me! Plus, I used the Banner punch from the Sale-A-Bration ‘free with a $50 purchase’ item. It is so easy to make great banners of all lengths with this little guy! I do hope that you enjoy what I created for today’s hop, I really had a blast putting this together!
