New from the Spring Catalog!!!

Hello I am back.....

This is a card I did with a set from the new Spring Catalog.  It is called Feel Goods #129684.  I used the layout from a challenge over at Mojo Monday website, what a great place to get layout ideas even if you don't submit for the challenge.  I got the color scheme form Create with Connie and Mary weekly color challenge.  Hope you enjoy:

The colors are Midnight Muse, Pink Pirouette and Whisper White.  A combo that I love:-}  I stamped behind the sentiment with the large flower from Betsy's Bloom #126006 in Pink with my words in Midnight Muse. I used a retired edge punch but didn't realize it until I was almost finished.  I love this punch but I guess I should put it away, you think????  I used a mat of Whisper White and then ran my pink and white layer thru the Big Shot with the Polka Dot folder.  I added a bow using the Midnight Muse ribbon to cover the seam . 

I kept it simple for the inside with just Congratulations from Curly Cute #120510 and another flower from Betsy's Bloom.  Not bad for the first card in a month.  Thanks for stopping by....I'll be back later with some news on My Paper Pumpkin promo from Stampin' UP!

Keep it inky!

As a guy, it’s not always easy to express yourself. You know you want to say it, but you just don’t know how. That’s why we’ve created the Dude, You’re Welcome! Kit. Quickly build a card that says just what you want it to say, whether it’s “#%&@!” because you messed up (when does that happen?), for a Special Occasion (you know the occasion), “I _____ You” (love, adore, miss, see?), or a simple “Thank You.” We’ve got your back. Dude, you’re welcome. Kit includes: * Four wood-mount stamps (double-mounted) with the perfect sentiment for every occasion * Twelve 4" x 6" postcards in four different (manly) colors * Twelve gray envelopes * A Basic Gray Classic Stampin’ Pad * An instructional guide (for the most novice stamper!) I will be back later with a new card and more news from Stampin' UP!, you may have heard about it.......My Paper Pumpkin!  Until then be kind and "Do one thing today that makes YOU happy.  Keep on Stampin!

Can we squeeze in a couple more Christmas Cards?

I wanted to share a couple more Christmas projects with you.   I will post the next three day until Christmas Eve.  I hope you have a minute to take a peek.   I love all the Holiday Sets we had in the Holiday Mini Catalog, just to let you know they are carrying over several Stamp Sets and accessories if you still haven't gotten all that you wanted.  The new book goes into effect on January 2, so it is not online for you to view just yet. I will post the list tomorrow with another project or card.

If you don't have a demonstrator and would like to have The Spring Mini or our 2012-2013 Idea Book, just sign up on my website www.roseannmarr.stampinup.com 

 and request a catalog.  While you are there check out the Clearance Rack, for the first time ever Stampin UP has put some stamp sets at deep discount.

Here we go......

I got the idea for these gift card holders from Selene Kempton's website Stamp4fun.net I made several of them for my gift cards this year, they took very little supplies and no time at all.  I did different colors using my Christmas Designer Series Paper.  I only had two left to show you but I did several different colors. The one on the left was done with Cherry Cobbler and the right was done in real red, I tried to match the colors with the DSP. I hope you can check out Selene's work she is amazing!

Well, that was quick I know we are all busy getting ready for Christmas.  I will stop in tomorrow with another card or project to share.  

Until then, be kind and do one thing today that makes you happy.

Come to Bethlehem

Wow, I can't believe there are only 12 days to Christmas.  Soon 2012 will be gone and we with have a new year to look forward to.  I have been busy getting my shopping done and cards made and mailed.   Today I have a card I created for one of my cards I sent this year.  It was done using "Come to Bethlehem" (120591) 

 

I did the base in Whisper White with my mat done in Basic Black that I ran thru the Big Shot to give it some dimension.  I used the Fancy Fan Textured Emboss Folder.  Then I used a small piece of  Silver Glitter.  Lastly I stamped my image on Shimmer paper and added a Rhinestone on the star.  I stamped the inside with the verse that was in the set.  I used Black Stazon to stamp my images.  Stampin' UP! makes it as easy as pie to create a beautiful card that will become a keepsake for your friends and family . 

A short post for today, until next time....be kind to one another and Do one thing today that makes you happy!

Stamp on
