The Royal Peacock stamp set wasn't one I thought I would be purchasing at first. I think seeing it with all the beautiful cool colors is what won me over. I'm definitely a cool color person as opposed to a warm color person. The Noble Peacock Foil paper especially excites me with the royal colors! Here is a card on which I used the Royal Peacock stamp set along with the Noble Peacock Foil. Continue reading

Stampin’ Up! Pigment Sprinkles
Have you noticed the Pigment Sprinkles in the catalog? These are similar to the Brusho crystals we used to carry, but I feel like they're even better! The bottle design is better and the colors are more in line with our selection of colors. Check out the background on this card I made to introduce the Pigment Sprinkles to the Tech Club last month.

Tea Together with Country Floral Embossing
I'm glad Stampin' Up! brought the County Floral 3D embossing folder back in the catalog. This embossing folder was available for free during part of Sale-A-Bration. Although I got the embossing folder then, I didn't feel like I got enough time to play with it as much as I wanted. Now, with it back in the catalog, I have a good excuse to keep using it! Check out this card! Continue reading

Did you see the Band Together card I shared with you yesterday? I posted it kid of late so you may not have seen it if you popped by in the morning.

Swirly Frames and Band Together
Those swirlies get me every time! When I first looked through the catalog the Band Together stamp set didn't make me take a second glance. However, once I saw those swirly frames made with the corresponding Detailed Bands dies, I was then convinced to purchase the stamp set. The frames make every card look top notch! Check out this card we made in the Band Together Stamp of the month class! Continue reading

It’s That Time of Year
I know you just looked at the header picture and had the word Christmas go through your head with a question mark and a slight amount of panic.

With that being said, our Christmas Card classes start at the library tomorrow! Yikes! We only have 4 classes scheduled at the library for Christmas Cards, so don't delay in signing up! I can still fit you in if you RSVP by 9PM this evening. Continue reading
