Stampin' Up Blog Hop!


Happy Saturday and welcome to my blog and the Stampin' Up Blog Hop! 
(throws confetti)


We are a very short hop - only 10 on the list including me.


You are at the very beginning of the hop! 
Your next stop is Raven
but wait, don't go yet! 
I have an easy project to show you
 and some blog candy to tell you about.


Mini Cards are 6" x 3", scored and folded at 3" for a 3"x 3" card
Solid colored cardstock cut @ 2 7/8" x 2 7/8"
White cardstock cut @ 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"
Each white piece is embossed with different embossing folders.
Ribbons, lace, and twine are all from stash.


Stampin' Up "Serene Silhouettes" #127324 
used for the image stamp.
The stamped image was then punched out with my circle punch and inked around the edges with the same ink to give it a border look.

Sentiment mats are punched out using Stampin' Up 
Word Window Punch #119857
and inked around the edges with the same ink as 
the sentiment and image.


Each of the sentiments are from 
Stampin' Up "Little Friends" #122667.

Inks used are all from Stampin' Up:
Orchid Opulence (retired)
Positively Pink (retired)
Glorious Green (retired)
Tempting Turquoise #126952


This was a very fast, and easy project which I think had great results!

I am VERY excited to announce that I am a brand new Stampin' Up demonstrator!! You can visit my Stampin' Up site... HERE
