Hello All,

Here's a card I made for someone special and wanted to make a quick post on my blog to share.  I used the Stippled Blossom stamp set and some retired ribbon.  The colors are Wisteria Wonder, Elegant Eggplant, Blushing Bride, Sahara Sand, and Wild Wasabi.

I hope you like.

PCS May 2014 ~ Thrice In Design


We've put together a fun yet challenging Sampler together for May.  This month offers three times more flair than the previous issue.

The request this month varied from holiday and seasonal issues we've had in the past.  Our May issue, "Thrice In Design", takes a whack at design projects with trio's, three's and third's in mind.  Each project simply had to contain "3" of something, be it images, layers or shapes.

Once again the design team pulled through and the creativity of each project shows.

This month's template is also designed with the trio concept in mind; the Pocketed Triptych .

Head on over to Paper Crafters Sampler and pick up your issue.

Below is a sneak peak at my card.

Notebook with Pen Gifts

When I was at Stampin Up's Catalog Premiere, I received a decorated notebook from a very nice lady named Ellen.  I fell in love with the little notebook.  I came home and searched for some little notebooks.  I ordered a bunch and I got to work on decorating some.  Here is what I came up with so far.  The Nautical One is for my daughter's teacher, her classroom is a Nautical Theme.  The paper is retired but the colors worked for her.  The stamp set is from the Occasion Mini.    

The other one is for my daughter.  She has a thing for notebooks and wanted one for herself.  She picked the flowers and colors.
