Ultimate PINK Blog Hop

I'm excited to be participating in the first ever Ultimate Pink Blog Hop – a collection of ideas from Stampin’ UP! demonstrators all over the globe featuring shades of pink in honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

For my project, I choose the Wonder of Christmas stamp set. I love this sweet little angel. I have two stamping friends who are fighting the breast cancer battle and I want them to have their own little angel to watch over them.

I made a gift tag with the tag topper scalloped punch.

It's difficult to see all the sparkle in the photo but I used Wink of Stella on the wings and I stamped the background with it.

Cookie Cutter Halloween

I love to see the way the ladies at my classes personalize their creations. I always make a sample and put out pre-cut materials but the rest is up to them. This is an example from my September Stamp A Stack card class

This is the sample we started with. I got my inspiration from a card on Pinterest by Mary Deatherage. Her card used a beautiful designer series paper and included some beautiful detail on the scallop. I didn't have the DSP she used and I knew the beautiful hand detailing she had done on the scallop would take to long for a class. So I used the embossed leaves folder where she used DSP.

This is the card Joann created at my class. A few minor changes gives it a different look. I love the brighter colors she chose.

This little guy is so cute and lots of fun to color. Here are a few of the different colors I've tried.

Designer Series Paper Sale

What can you make with all this great paper?

I love templates. They help me to create new cards when I am not feeling especially creative. But once I make that first card the ideas just keep coming!

Happy Cardmaking,
