Snowed In and Loving It!

Well, maybe not loving it, but...  Had to cancel Stamp With Me day because our pocket of the Mid-Atlantic got about 8 inches of heavy white stuff and our street still hasn't been plowed.  So here's the first of my "cabin-fever sanity check."  This one uses the Punch Bunch again as well as the new Build-a-cupcake Punch and matching Create a Cupcake set.  More to come today so keep watching this space...

What's this? A Blue Valentine?

Now who would think that Baja Breeze would make a cute Valentine card?  I was inspired by the samples in the last Holiday Mini Catalog that used the Filled With Love set in blues.  What a nice twist on the Valentine.  Here, I paired Baja Breeze with Cherry Cobbler.  I used the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit and the Full Heart punch to create this fun quartet.  The border of tiny hearts on the right hand side are from the Confetti clear mount stamp set, just for a bit of background.  For depth, I punched one heart out of the background and popped the red one out.  Enjoy!

In Color Thinking of You

I'm enjoying this year's crop of In Colors.  I think they have some great uses.  Here's a card that uses 3 of them together.  It also features my favorite new greeting set, Curly Cute.  Background is from the Confetti stamp set and I used the Itty Bitty Bits and matching punches for the embellishments.  Stampin' Up! is coming up with all sorts of interesting embellishments this year.  Can't wait to share some of the Holiday Mini Catalog stuff (my preorder is scheduled to arrive today!  Go UPS.)  Look for that soon.  Thanks for visiting.
