Hello Stamping World!
Happy belated New Year! Yes, I have finally ended my hiatus from the crafting world. After nine weeks of recovery (I had rotator cuff surgery on November 23rd) I am slowly beginning to stamp again. To get motivated, I have pulled a few cards from a file and CASEd them. I forgot how relaxing stamping can be. I'm excited to try all of the new products that have been drizzling in from the mini.
I have a workshop booked for next weekend and am nervous about putting something together that quickly... I am thinking about water coloring an image and framing it with the new framelits die. No idea for the second card LOL. These women are not newcomers to the stamping world so I will have to 'put my game on'!
I hope the new year brings much love, happiness and success to all of you in cyber world!
Kudos,
Samantha
I can't believe it ... the clock is ticking and I'm starting to get that tingly feeling. You know, the one you get before you step on the plane for Stampin' Up Convention!! I decided that since I attended my first Convention in 2010 as a first year demonstrator, i was going to attend Regionals as a second year demonstrator. I'm so excited. Now that I'm getting the hang of using the products and playing with the colors ... I'm ready to step on board the +ONE and reach out for some business tips. I need to recruit and have no idea how to even get started! They say Regionals are the place to go for support, knowledge and of course ... FUN!
This card was inspired by a card I saw on Ebay of all places. I just had to take out the Melon Mambo and Pacific Point colors to pop this card right off the page! What do you think? So simple yet one of my favorite creations so far. (I left them blank for regionals but my own stash has the modern label punch layered with whisper white greeting to coordinate to the Melon Mambo and Pacific Point.) I'm going to have to send in another Sale a Bration order because I want more, more, more of these adorable buttons!
Happy stamping!
