Mystery Hostess and Label Card Thinlits

Hi Friends,
I hope you had an enjoyable weekend!  My husband, Mark, was out of town so I worked in my stamp room and that was fun. He is an airline pilot for Delta Airlines so he is gone quite a bit.  His schedule varies from month to month and when he isn’t home I spend a lot of time stamping.

I made this card last week and used the new Label Card Thinlits.  Not only do you get the shape for the actual card but there are many more pieces to use.  I used one of the shapes in the Thinlets set for my sentiment which is from the set Six-Sided Sampler.  I stamped my butterfly with Staz-On (you really get a nice vivid black) onto Coastal Cabana and then punched it out with my Elegant Butterfly punch (#127526).   I used the set Polka Dot Pieces  and stamped the “flowers” with my Coastal Cabana ink pad.  I felt it needed some bling so I added rhinestones.  I love that sparkly look!

If you would like to order any of the products to make this card, use the Hostess Code that I mentioned last week.  The code is good until Friday and if you place an order using the code below, you will have a chance to win the Hostess Benefits, which will be at least $25 if the combined orders reach $150.  You must use the hostess code below when you place the order.  Please be sure that my name is in the upper right hand corner.

When you lift the lid, you see pretty blue tissue paper with a surprise inside!
This was the first layer – a stamp (blocks not included) and a Basic Black Stampin’ Spot!
The next layer revealed a kit!

Beautifully Baroque

Today’s card is one that I made at a class given by Maggie Patterson and Ronda Wade.  It uses the beautiful new embossing folder, Beautifully Baroque.  This was the first time that I’d used our Core’dinations Cardstock (underneath my sentiment).  It is a thick, sandable cardstock that you use to create an antiqued, distressed look (I could have distressed it a lot more than I did).  Another new product on my card are the Candy Dots!  You can simply place them on your projects like our pearls or rhinestones or you can use the Candy Dots Brad Bases and turn them into a colored brad!  So cute!

Thank you for taking time to stop by my blog today!!
