Big Designer Buttons!

I've been looking at the big designer buttons in the mini catalogue for a while and yesterday I decided I was going to use them!  They are just fantatic and co-ordinate so well with lots of the designer papers.

I've also used the new seam binding which is very soft and easy to use.  I think the combination of the pear pizzazz seam binding and the rose red button look great.

SU products:

DSP: Nursery Suite, Brights
Ink: Rose red
Punch: Two step bird
Ribbon: seam binding (pear pizzazz)
Button: Big Designer Buttons (pack of 48)


If you'd like to know more about these products or attend a class, please email me.

I'm expecting a delivery from Stampin' Up! tomorrow so will have lots more goodies to play with!  Check back to see what I've been up to.

This card is being submitted to the Craft Your Passion challenge  and the Papertake Weekly Challenge - anything goes.

Launch of the Mini Catalogue!

The Stampin' Up! mini catalogue has been launched today and it is full of fantastic products - including the Big Shot and several dies to go with it!  Some of the dies are exclusive to Stampin' Up! so you won't find them anywhere else.

You can access the online version using the link on the right, or email me for a hard copy.

I was lucky enough to win a stamp set from the mini catalogue at a recent card class with Amanda Bates.  It is called Plane and Simple and is fantastic for those difficult men's cards.   I don't know why we all struggle with cards for men but we do and this stamp set could be the answer.

The card stock is Crumb Cake with Chocolate Chip ink - it sounds good enough to eat!  The stamps are all from the Plane and Simple stamp set in the mini catalogue.  The background paper is from the Nursery Suite - this is definitely not a baby card!

SU Supplies:
CS: Crumb Cake
DSP: Nursery Suite
Stamps: Plane and Simple
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Punches: corner, oval scallop, round tab
Ribbon, white gel pen

If you'd like to have a look at the mini catalogue, or the main Idea Book & Catalogue, please follow the link on the right.  Alternatively call or email me to discuss products, order or classes.

Striped Birthday Card

Today's card is being submitted to the Alphabet Challenge Blog which this week is "S for Stripes".

I've used the Nursery Suite of papers again which, as you can see, can be used for just about anything.   The flowers are made using the 1 1/4" circle punch.  The punched out circles have been spritzed, scrunched up, layered and left to dry. 

The tag has been left loose so that a personal message can be written on the back.

SU Supplies:

CS: Baja Breeze
DSP: Nursery Suite
Ink: Pear Pizzazz
Punches: Corner, 1 1/4" circle
Ribbon:  Certainly Celery (1 cm)
Brads
Rhinestones
