Perfectly Penned

Found an inspirational pretty card on Pinterest showcased by Francie Martin. She is such a lovely, talented Stampin Up demonstrator and I enjoy hearing her cute accent!

Of course, I just had to have one for my very own...so I went searching for similar designer papers that would work, similar to the sample she created.

Recipe:

Stamps: Perfectly Penned (retired)

Ink: Midnight Muse (retired)

Paper: Midnight Muse (retired), Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Fan Fair DSP (retired)

Misc: Lacy Brocade embossing folder (retired), Jewels Basic Pearls, dimensional

There is a point to be made about this card...since the Stampin' Up! Retired List will be announced towards the end of April, I would suggest that if you really LOVE a particular color, embellishment, punch or what have you...order it SOON!!! Especially the retiring In-Colors as they sell out quickly!

Please let me know if I can help you in that endeavor!

Hope your week is Amazing and has some FUN built in to it!

Enjoy!

~ Quilted Merry Christmas ~

Don't you just LOVE this time of year when we can all cozy up with a blankie and sip our favorite hot drink, mine is tea...and watch TV, read a book, etc. Well, that warm, fuzzy feeling just took over my card making this year and I decided to use our beautiful Stampin' Up! Deck the Halls designer paper and cut 1 1/4 inch pieces, then running it through the Big Shot top note die, then the Textured Impressions Vintage Wallpaper folder to make this quilt card. One of these could also be on its' way to your door as there are at least a dozen circulating the postal system right this very minute!

Enjoy!
