Rising to the Challenge...

This months Gold Star Ink team meeting card swap is to 'limit ourselves' to one color, one natural color, one stamp set and one embellishment ... limiting myself is never easy when it comes to designing a card I tend to go for the bling and the bang however I am pleased with how this challenge turned out ... one color was Coral and I opened for two tones of it Calypso and Crisp Cantaloupe, Whisper White for my neutral, one stamp set Six Sided Sampler and one embellishment is my ribbon ... I did sneak in the Hexagon Emboss folder in there ;)

Hope the ladies at the shoebox swap tonight love it as much as I do ~ cannot wait to see what they have to offer!

Best of Stamp Sets ... get em now!

Yes, the free Stampin’ Up! stamps are ending March 31st whether we like it or not.  It’s not just the end of Sale-A-Bration, but it’s also the end of the Best of Stampin’ Up! series of stamps. 

 Each month had a theme. All the stamps in each set except for one was a returning stamp from a previous year.

But they weren’t the same!  They are a different size than when originally released so it’s still cool even if you have them in the original set.
Take a look!

Order online or give me a shout by phone or email to place an order before March 31st!
