Mystery Hostess is here!

 Today is the day; the mystery hostess begins!  You will email or phone(contact info at the bottom of this post) me orders thru tomorrow, Saturday, March 24th by 8 pm.  Then I will draw for hostess benefits, splitting them up a little, so more people have a chance to win something FREE.  All who place orders will also be entered for door prize drawings.  Further details of this are in blog post entitled Mystery Hostess Time! on March 21, 2012.  You can scroll down and see it.  I will be posting the winners of hostess benefits on Sunday and you can contact me with your choice.  It's gonna be fun!!!  Don't forget Sale-a-bration ends this month so get those items for FREE while you can.  Probably my most favorite FREE item has been the Everyday Enchantment designer series paper (dsp)!  Today's card uses it and a embosslit that was used in my Big Shot training that my club members got this past month called Beautiful Wings. 

and it is always fun to decorate the inside of the card too....

 

 

colors used are pool party, poppy parade, peach parfait, and whisper white.  Stampin' Up!  makes color choice so easy for us sometimes----I just picked colors that were in the dsp.  It is that easy!

I look forward to getting your order--lets make this a great workshop!

Oh Baby!

Today's post is a baby card -- I needed a couple of these recently and with the summer months, along with all the ranch work I haven't been in my stamp room a whole lot.  Needless to say, it is time to spend some time in there and get some cards stamped for my "stash".  I got inspiration for this card from our Stampin' Success magazine that we get each month as SU demonstrators.

I used a certainly celery base card that was ran thru the Big Shot with the polka dot embossing folder.  I also used the Big Shot to cut the letters to spell babywith the timeless type sizzlits (page 224 of the IB&C).  I'm not quite sure how I ever lived without my Big Shot?  The buttons are SU and some are retired and some are current to get the colors to match like I wanted.  Stamping comes from a couple of sets; Sweetly Said (page 158 of the IB&C) and Short and Sweet (page 166).  The little espresso scallop edge was made with the dotted scallop ribbon border punch found on page 211.  I hope my new mom's and dad's enjoyed this card as they welcome their new little one to the world!  Thanks for stopping by--have a fabulous day everyone!
