Mixed Bunch Card

Mixed Bunch is a fun stamp set.

And works beautifully with the Blossom Punch.

Here are a few things I did with it today, using both.

I'm big on recycled things. In the card below I got the ribbon off of a gift my daughter recieved.

Waste Not! Want Not!

The new Blossom Punch makes beautiful flowers as well.

Cant wait to use this in workshops!!!!

Congratulations, Baby Card

 Getting ready for baby shower.

I used things that have been hanging out in my scrapbooking room for years.

I wanted to play with "other stuff", which means,

I took a break from my Stampin' Up! products.

I made this card for my Daughters shower.

I'm pretty excited and cant wait to meet the new baby!

Hope she likes it.

Happy Stamping!

Mixed Bunch, Challenge?

If your are like me......

I save all my scraps. And I end up with a box, heaping with scraps of paper.

Overflowing, is a better word to describe my box full of scraps.

Once again, I challenged myself to work with nothing but scraps from this box.

I had two small pieces of retired Love Letter DSP,

and from there I ended up with this card.

I love using the new Mixed Bunch stamp set

and the new Blossom Punch.

They work so beautifully together.

Not too bad, if I do say!!!

Challenge yourself to use your scraps.

Its amazing what a few pieces of scrap paper can inspire you to create!

I used nothing but scraps for the whole card.

Happy Stamping!

Graduation 2 Page Layout

My Daughter Graduated from college. I thought I'd do a layout,

and I wanted to use the book from her graduation ceremony.

I used the front  Cover on the first page layout, and I used the back cover to mat the photos.

I used the backside of the gold shimmer paper (I found inside the booklet)

for a photo mat on the first page layout.

And here It is!

We are so proud of her! How exciting to start a new life!!

Happy Stamping!
