About Me!

I am a full time mother to my two children, Lauren who is 8 and Alec who is 5. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Aaron, for 9 years. I have been a stamping for 5 years and love making cards and gift ideas using Stampin' Up! product. I love my job as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and check back often to see my new creations. All projects are made with Stampin' Up! product unless otherwise noted. Thanks for stopping by!

I sat down at my stamp desk tonight wanting to make some Thank You cards for some wonderful customers and hostesses that I have had this week. I love to checkout some websites that have sketch challenges each week. It helps me come up with a layout and I get to add the pretty stuff...stamps, colors and accessories. Tonight I started playing with the Card Pattern Sketch 78 and this is what I came up with...

The idea of these colors came from our NEW wonderful Color Coach. I use this Color Coach a lot with the new colors renovation...I just love it! So these colors are Cajun Craze, Basic Gray, Very Vanilla and Baja Breeze. The stamp set is the Notably Ornate set from the new catalog and using some of the new accessories as well, Vintage Brads and the 1/2" Chantilly Crochet Trim. Here is the card at another angle showing some of the accessories...

I also used our wonderful Shimmer Mist in Champagne Mist in a bottle with rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle...it just adds that perfect sparkle.

It is pretty late for me...so I will be heading to bed but you can bet I will be up making a few of these cards for some wonderful people tomorrow.

Thanks for looking!
