I love Stampin' Ups! Carry On hostess stamp set. It so adorable and so trendy right now. Here is the card I made.

Love the color combo: Island Indigo, More Mustard and Early Espresso.  The DSP is Orchard Harvest in the Holiday Catalog as well as the Early Espresso Core'dinations card stock. I ran it through my big shot with the Polka Dots embossing folder and then sanded it using the new Stampin' Sanding system. I also love how our Label framelits layer together. 

Remember Stampin' Up! is having their "Back to Spool" special. Contact me with your order of $40 or more [before shipping and tax] and you can choose your FREE 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon. Make it an $80 order and choose 2 FREE or make it a $200 order and get all 5 colors for FREE along with $30 in Hostess product and if you want you can use your hostess dollars towards the Carry On stamp set!  Choose from wood or clear mount.

Here is a scrapbook page I made using My Digital Studio.  We had an amusement park called "Kiddie Land" near my home.  It was there for so many years, in fact, I went there as a kid!  Unfortunately, they have torn it down and replaced it with Costco. Although it's nice to have a Costco, but I'd rather have Kiddie Land.  Many wonderful memories there both as a kid and with my kids!

Enjoy your day & thanks for stopping by!

Hello Baby

I needed a card for a customer who had her 3rd baby about 3 weeks ago. She had a baby boy. 

I used Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Whisper White and So Saffron card stock. The DSP is retired from SAB 2009. I used the Big Shot Top Note die and the Perfect Polk Dots embossing folder.  1-3/4" and 1" Circle, Star, Word Window and Photo Corners punches. The Photo Corners punch was used to make the flag like shape after punching with the Word Window punch.  Ink is Certainly Celery. Stamp set is Teeny Tiny Wishes. I added a Circle Designer Brad to the 1" circle punch.

For the month of Mary you can receive a pack of our Designer Brads for free with the purchase one of the qualifying stamp sets. See here for the qualifying stamp sets.
