Awesomely Copper!
I have always loved the rich look of copper. I even use it for decorative accents in my home. That’s why I was so excited to see the Copper Heat Emboss Powder in the new 2016-17 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. This card uses the dragonfly and “Friend” stamp from the stamp set “Awesomely Artistic.” I embossed those accents and then added the copper thread to ‘tie’ it all together. I stamped and embossed one more dragonfly on scratch paper and then cut out the wings to make the dragonfly a little more 3-D. The paper is from the Botanicals Designer Paper Series. Old Olive ink is still one of my favorite greens!

Twice as Nice!
Celebrating twin girls born to a former student of mine….I used parts of this month’s Paper Pumpkin kit and the darling stamp set called “Made with Love.” I accented the card with a little pop of Flirty Flamingo ruched ribbon.

Hello, Shaker Cards!
I can’t say enough about the new Foam Adhesive Strips from Stampin’ Up! found in the 2016-17 Annual Catalog. These thin strips of foam with adhesive on them make it so easy to make your own shaker card, and who doesn’t love a card that sparkles when you shake it?? This one is done in Flirty Flamingo, hands down my favorite of the new 2016-18 In Colors from Stampin’ Up! The sentiment is from the Tin of Cards stamp set — love the boldness of the font! The inspiration for this card came from Pinterest, a great source of ideas. Stay tuned for a Shaker Card class coming soon!

Affectionate Owls for PPA!
I tried utilizing the awesome Pals Paper Arts Design 306 by my upline, Mary Fish. I thought these sweet little owls with dresses from the “Affectionately Yours” Designer Series paper would be cute. The sequins make the tree branches ‘pop’ a little!

Seaside Shore
Today’s card is made from the new stamp set from the Stampin’ Up! 2016-17 Annual Catalog called “Seaside Shore.” The Designer Series Paper coordinates beautifully with its soft colors of Calypso Coral, Dapper Denim, and Mint Macaron. The sentiment is embossed with gold embossing powder. A few gold sequins add the right touch of glimmer to this thoughtful card!

Playing with the May Paper Pumpkin!
We had a great night putting together our May Paper Pumpkin kits. Not only is the original very cool, with its textured Cajun Craze paper and Pool Party accents; but there are so many other possibilities with this kit. Who could resist adding some other colors to the back of this intricate die cut to see what happens? Can’t wait to see what the June Paper Pumpkin holds!!

I played the PPA#304!
The Pals Paper Arts Challenge this week involved the sketch below. I decided to try something with my brand new stamp set called “Seaside Shore.” It is from the new 2016-17 Annual Stampin’ Up! Catalog, and I can’t get enough of it. I used the sentiment and the fish from the stamp set, adding some ‘sparkle’ to both the fish with the fabulous Wink of Stella pen and some iridescent embossing powder mixed in with white embossing powder for the sentiment. The Designer Series Paper “By the Shore” constitutes the background layer as well as the the circle of cute fish swimming around. The card stock for the tag is Dapper Denim, one of the new In Colors for 2016-18. Hope you enjoy my card!
