Testing the new siggy
Sweet Treat
Here is a card I made using the Sweet Treat cups. Sorry if it is a little hard to see on the white background. I found the idea for this card from Mary Fish who does beautiful work. You can see her card here. I just changed a few things. She uses the small and large oval punch but I only had the large oval. I think it turned out nice. Next time I will sponge the petals a little bit more. I have never liked the look of sponging but after this card I am definitely hooked and will keep trying it out.
Sale-a-bration is almost over! You have until March 31st to earn free products with your $50 order. If you would like to place an order, please email me or go directly to my Stampin’ Up! website. Thanks for looking today!
Happy Together #2
This is another card I made to swap in Reno. It is the same card I made several days ago but I used different colors (Chocolate Chip and Real Red). I finished the cards up in my hotel room and propped it up on my bed so I could take a picture of it! This stamp set is called Happy Together and I think it is one of my new favorites.
Thanks for stopping by!

Reno
Yesterday I attended my first Stampin’ Up! Regional Seminar in Reno. This is one of the cards I brought to swap with other Stampin’ Up! demonstrators. I had a great time being in a room full of people who love to create cards and papercrafts as much as I do. I received many beautiful cards and have many new ideas that I want to try out when I get home!
I truly love my Big Shot and used it for a lot of my card. It is a big purchase but so worth it. I also own another machine that is not a Stampin’ Up product but it can’t emboss as the Big Shot machine does which is why I turn to it again and again. For this card I used the Polka Dot embossing folder and the Embosslit die Simple Flower. I will post the other products I used on the card when I get home!
Thanks for stopping by!

I made the pinwheel on this card after visiting Barb Mulliken’s website. You can view a video that she made and see how easy and fun they are to make! I got on a roll and made several pinwheels but haven’t yet made the cards.

Thinking of You
This card was inspired by a similar one in a magazine (Stampin’ Success) that Stampin’ Up! demonstrators receive each month. I changed a few things but the way it turned out. I used two items from the Occasions Mini Catalog: the Extra Large Two Step Bird Punch (which also comes with the branch he is on) and Old Olive 5/8 inch satin ribbon. The texture on the Rich Razzleberry cardstock was achieved by using the Big Shot and the Elegant Bouquet Textured Impressions embossing folder. I used a Stampin’ Dimensional on the bird’s wing to create lift. My sentiment “Thinking of You” is part of a hostess set (Kind and Caring Thoughts) at level 3. You can choose this set when you have a $500 order. If you have any questions about this card or anything else on my website, don’t hesitate to email me! Thanks for stopping by!
Heart Treat Cups
This card was made using the Heart Treat cups in the Occasions mini as well as the Sending Love designer series paper. I was inspired by a card that Melissa Stout made. You can see a video tutorial that she created on her website. Once you arrive, look at the top and you will see “Video Tutorials.” Click that and it will take you to her YouTube videos. This is the first card I’ve made using these treat cups and think I will make some more this week to give to co-workers. If you would like to place an order, or just have questions, please email me! Thanks for stopping by.
