Embellished Events

Today's post is a card inspired from Stampin' Success magazine--this is a magazine that we get as demonstrators from Stampin' Up!  It provides lots of information and inspiration for the demos that SU has. 
 
A fun little card and fairly quick to put together.  You will notice that I layered a striped embossed piece of raspberry ripple cs onto a raspberry ripple base card--I LOVE that look.

I used the Tea Shoppe stamp set found on page 57 of our annual catalog (AC).  My colors come from the designer paper.  I love layering white on white using dimensionals to pop it up for the 3-D effect.  A couple of these colors are retiring soon so get 'em while ya can!  Thanks for stopping by today!!  If you want to order--click HERE to head to my website.  Click the "shop now" button.

Retiring Colors!

 A fellow demontrator, Patsy Waggoner,  put this chart together.  She was so kind as to share it and allow me to use it to share with customers!
 
These colors are retiring this year on May 31st! I can tell you right now, they will never make it to that date as we have current supplies only. If you need any of them, the ink refills, coordinating paper, etc, you need to order them ASAP! SU has told us they are not replenishing supply, so once they are gone, they are GONE! Keep in mind we have FREE shipping today and tomorrow--what better time to get these things????  Be sure to keep in mind you can add clearance rack, regular catalog merchandise, & spring mini merchandise to your order.  Head on over to my website to order.  www.rheastamps.stampinup.net and click on the "shop now" link.
