PrettyPaperMakers: So happy for you!

So who am I kidding!?!?! I couldn't wait until tomorrow to post. In my last post I told you how happy I am now that I have a designated craft space at home and how this is soooo much better than where I was a couple of weeks ago. (I will not punish you by showing the picture again, I promise.)

I already broke out my little crafty nook and have been creating. I had reasons to break out my stuff. One of the ladies at work retired and I made her a card using one of my favorite new stamps. You've seen it all over Pinterest paired with the new blendabilities markers (that you will be able to order starting tomorrow, July 1st)!! These markers are awesome, but I did not want to use them for this card.

And one of my all-time favorite young ladies had a birthday last week.

Here is the Blended Bloom and Bravo stamp sets on whisper white cardstock in Strawberry Slush and gold ink... The colors reminded me of my co-worker, Rosalie...

I kept the color combo going on the tag for her gift bag. I added some ribbon and gold sequin trim. You know me and my bling!

Here is the card I made for Tali, my favorite 12 year-old in the world. She's a bright, colorful, creative kiddo and I knew exactly what I wanted to make for her. I used the Sassy Salutations stamp set, I figured it was perfect for this card!

I used the new Stampin' Up! Hearts & Stars decorative mask along with the new in-color sequins threaded through our linen thread to give the card some "bling." I hope she loves her card as much as I loved creating it!

That's all for today (promise), but I have more to share with you in the days ahead. I've been playing with the hamburger die and I've been having a blast!! If you'd like to order any of the products listed below, don't forget to add me as your demo!

Until next time!
