More is More

I spent most of the afternoon making samples for my next Stampin’ Up! Class.  We’re going to be making a super cute little gift set using the stamp set Tart & Tangy along with the new Summer Picnic designer paper.  I can’t share that project quite yet – class isn’t until April 4th and I don’t want to spill the beans.  All I can say is that it involves an Altoids tin…hmmmmm…and did I mention that it’s super cute?  *wink*  I’m going to have a full house for this class and I can hardly wait!

Well, after several hours in my stamp room and leaving it looking like a small tornado went through I got an e-mail from my Mom asking if I have any thank you cards made up.  She needs a couple of them.  I went through my stash and really only found one that seemed suitable, so I couldn’t resist heading back to my stamp room to play a bit more with that Summer Picnic designer paper.

I just got the set All Holidays and mounted these two sentiments just to make this card.  I used some fun shiny chipboard buttons from Making Memories (purchased at Target) to add a little punch to this card along with the Adorn It Jewel droplets in red from eclectic Paperie. Some SU striped Bashful Blue ribbon and a silver ribbon slide finish it off.  I even stamped a matching envelope, but I just couldn’t get a good photo of that.

Thanks for all the very sweet comments on my new hair!  🙂  I gotta say – I’m still excited about it!  Thanks for stopping by.
