Well, lookie, lookie I found more inspiration from the same Target Ad~~~

I guess "ripping" pieces of ads from the Sunday paper, pages from the never ending Crate and Barrel, and Potty Barn catalogs I get are paying off in the inspiration department!

I hope this inspires you as well :)

The colors were perfect for trying out the new color STONE SLAT, which is replacing River Rock and breaking out the Crushed Curry and the little used Tangarine Tango.

Sets: Build A Bloosom, Serene Silhouettes, and Inpirational Phrases
Paper: Basic Grey, Stone Slate, Crushed Curry and Whispher White
Ink: Basic Grey, Stone Slate, Crushed Curry and Stazon
Accessories:  Two-tone Basic Gray Ribbon, which was too wide because it would have covered up to much of image... I cut it lengthwise and frayed the fibers.  Basic pearls, versamark, and clear EP.

Just Yappin' bout Stampin!

I thought I had lost my creativity inspiration over the last few weeks...  but I  found it in an unlikely place~~~

Stamps:  Sunflower Background stamp, Sneak Peek set Express Yourself
Ink: Pacific Point, Baja Breeze, Basic Black, and returning color  Crushed Curry
Paper: Whispher White, Pacific Point and Crushed Curry
Accessories: Modern Label and Word Window punches, Retired Black Satin ribbon, In-color dalhias

Just a few cards to post....

Hi all,

Dang, could not get a pic that was not blurry! Sorry...

Super-Duper exciting things happening with Stampin' Up!

First and foremost today was the exciting moment when I got a "sneek peek" at the  NEW upcoming catalog!  Yahoo!

Second, with some true apprehension, looking at the retiring lists of stamps and accessories... because what retires in my stamp "collection" are going away!  But the WONDERFULNESS of it all is I can't wait to get new stampin' toys!

But, first the new Color Change Announcement was out awhile ago.... there are some great returning colors form the past!


Also announced were the new in-colors for 2013-2015:


Strawberry Slush
Baked Brown Sugar
Pistachio Pudding
Coastal Cabana, and
Crisp Cantalope


Thanks for Yappin' about Stampin' with me!
