I used the retiring stamp set - Bordering on Romance (shown below).  This is such an elegant stamp set - it matches Adorning Accents Edgelits (#125595) and the Adorning Accents Embossing Folders (also shown below).  
~
I used Wisteria Wonder and So Saffron - the stamped image is on Crumb Cake.  This card is soooo much prettier in real life - the photo just doesn't do it justice!

Just Beautiful!

100_9505

Here's one of the pages my Card:Scrap Buffet made last Saturday!!!  I love the soft monocromatic colors - it really makes the photo of my Anna & her Andi the highlight of the page.  The flowers & butterflies are subtle yet prominate on this page.

I used my Simply Scored tool with the Diagonal Plate to make my background score lines....very cool addition to this background.  The flowers are called Paper Daisy Accents (shown below) - they can be sponged to any color - very nice embellishment for scrapbook pages and cards.

The next CARD:SCRAP Buffet is on Saturday, May 18th from 9am - 1pm - hope you can join me!  There are 16 cards and 4 scrapbook pages to choose from!!!

Whether you're a seasoned scrapbooker or a beginner or you're just thinking about starting - this is a great way to go home with completed pages that are all ready to drop your photos onto and add your journaling. You can see some of the past pages we've made at the buffet here:

Golf Anyone???

100_9487

How fun is this card???  It was the punch card for my April Technique Tuesday class a couple weeks ago.  My next Technique Tuesday is on May 7th - mark your calendars and join me!!!  The class is $5 with a minimum $15 order or FREE with a $40 order.

I found the card online and changed a couple little things...one of those little things is using the Cloudy Day embossing folder in the background!  The Pennant Parade stamp set is so fun - I made the hole flag and the trees out of that set - the WISH BIG is in there too!  The XL oval punch is pefect for the hole.  Marina Mist, Certainly Celery, Garden Green make up the cardstock & ink colors.

This is a perfect card for my golf friends and relatives.

NEW Wood Mount Stamp Cases!!!

Introducing our new wood-mount stamp set packaging! These new cases are similar to our clear-mount boxes and fit perfectly on the shelf right next to them. They also have the images and stamp set name on the spine to make your search for the right set even easier.

Starting May 31 all wood-mount sets will come in this new packaging. And empty cases will be available with the launch of the new catalog. That means you can transfer all your old sets to these new boxes! There will even be a template for you to create your own label for your old stamp sets (available May 31). A pack of four half-size cases (3-3/4" x 5-1/2") will sell for $4.95 and a pack of four full-size cases (7-1/2" x 5-1/2") will be $6.95.

Get ready for all the exciting new products in the catalog--especially the new wood-mount boxes!

Sit back and see all the fun ideas for these cases:

There's nothing like a smile....

100_9508
.

I have four brand new pages for my scrapbookers this Saturday at the CARD:SCRAP BUFFET!!!  Here's a fun one that deserves photos that make me smile!

The first photo on my page that makes me smile is one of Hailey is sitting on the edge of the truck with her dog Rudy by her feet - waiting to leave for college - it was so cute...he didn't want her to go!  What the second photo doesn't show is her holding a box turtle she found while fishing.  And the third photo is a special memory of the birthday she celebrated last summer with her papa.  All three are deserving of a great big SMILE!
