It was crunch time! My FMS card for this week was due and I was tired from doing shower invitations. There was a serious lack of motivation in the craft room. But then that UPS truck pulled up and left a big box of brand new Stampin' Up! products. I brought the box upstairs and made a vow not to open it until my design team card was finished and photographed. What was I thinking? There was no card making happening - I was too focused on the box. I finally gave in, ripped that box open and this card just magically appeared!
The magic ingredients:
Raspberry Ripple paper and ink - yum!
Gumball Green ink - beautiful green!
Birds of a Feather DSP - tweet as can be!
Apothecary Accents Framelits - amazingly cool shapes!
Large Scallop Edgelit - so elegant!
Reason to Smile Stamp Set - made a striking bouquet!
Paper Piercing Templates - So! Much! Fun!
Lovely Little Labels Stamps and Punches - way too cute!
And the good news is that the box isn't empty yet!
Work a little magic yourself this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
How "sweet" it is! Reasons to Smile definitely does that, makes me smile. Wonder what other magic is in that box?? Sort of like Mary Poppins?
ReplyDeleteGreat colors, Linda! I love what you did with your new goodies and can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteLove these flowers and colors! Nothing like new toys to inspire our creativity - just like kids, right?
ReplyDeleteLinda, This is just fabulous. I LOVE those flowers and will have to look at that set. You have 4 of my wish list times on this card and I may have to go ahead and get all of them. Fantastic job as always!
