Good Day!
It's Sunday and I am rushed this morning! I am making a big lunch/dinner for my husband's birthday today! We should be about 16 people!
Been cooking since 2:00am! ( well I started soaking the beans and put the ribs in a special marinate last night)
It's coming along nicely and in between cooking I finished my card!
I still have to make a card for Rex! I know I am so far behind! If I didn't have to work yesterday all would of worked better - but hey I am so thankful for the work that I am so not complaining!
sooooooooooooo two big news events before we get to my card
1

The lucky recipient of my beloved "Tess" is.....................

Congratulations Tammy - I will be shipping Tess out to you real soon!

the second big news is:
The new prize for the
BLOG CANDY
is:
Vintage Voge - but in FRENCH -
it is called
"Vague Vintage"
there we have it!
okay so onto finishing my card
first I used The Mojo Monday Sketch and also the LNS Ribbon challenge
The colours were inspired by a new designer paper!
It is called Sweet Pea - it's new and in the Stampin Up! Occasions Mini catalogue
on page 33 - whow you get 48 pages and all double sided that is 96 pages of 12'' x 12'' DSP can you beleive it??
okay so the colours are as follows:
Chocolate chip, Old Olive, So Saffron and Pale Plum
I used my Big Shot and my Circle cutter to created both the scalloped circle and the other circles
some of my circles
and finishing my circles
so I have matted alot of layers and I have done my faux stiching ribbon
I used the Fifth Avenue Rose to stamp
I did a tone on tone -
So Saffron on So Saffron card stock
I edge my circle with So Saffron a little shimmer paint!
you didn't think I wouldn't use shimmer paint did you?? lol
I used the stamp called
"Define your life"
Stampin Up idea book page 150 for the greeting
I coloured two white ribbons
one pale plum
with the Stampin Markers
and So Saffron
I know I love to colour ribbon - so cool uh??
he he!
then I used the same rose and stamped the inside
and Thank You greeting
some brads Chocolate Chip
and you can see the punch that I used here
Remember it's from the Sale-a-bration promotion so you could get this Punch FREE
buttons Old Olive - adhered with Crystal Effects -
another one of my favs.
and I am ready to show you my card
and there we have it
It's done yhe!
