We've Moved!!!

It has been a long, long, long, month but we have finally found ourselves settled (almost) in our new home.  We are still busy at work unpacking and organizing but it feels great to finally be here.  Our neighborhood is just awesome, very quiet and peaceful.  We only thought such quiet evenings could exist in fairy-tales. 

After finally get the necessities put away I have moved on to what I consider the biggest necessity and that is my craft room.  It took me a while of debating but I finally chose a color and it is.....drum roll please.....So Saffron.  I debated between this and my long time favorite Baha Breeze.  My craft room in my old house is Baha Breeze so I thought I would go with something "new" in my new house  :)

Here are a few pics of the room prior to getting the color on the wall and a few pics of the room as it progresses.  As you can see we are working around all of my supplies, which are still in boxes.

I will be posting a quick pic tomorrow of my first "batch" of cards I created in the new place.  I used a favorite quick and easy layout, I am sure you have seen me use before.

Happy Stampin!!!!

Happy Graduation

We had one family member graduate from high school this year and this is the card I made for him.  I CASED the layout from another SU demonstrator, as soon as I can find where I saved her name, I will post here.  The graduates school colors were yellow and navy.  I used the now retired stamp sets Word Play and Circle Circus, both of which I am keeping in my personal stash!  You are not able to tell from the picture but this is a sort of "fancy folds" card as the middle section opens up to reveal the sentiment. 
Happy Stampin and don't forget the Inky Fingers Club Summer Session.  I will be posting some sneak peeks of my stampin area so you can get a little glimpse of the stamps and colors I will be featuring in my designs!!
Have a blessed day

Wildflowers In Colors

This was the very first card I made with the new Wildflower Meadow stamp set, is that a mouthful or what?  I used the In Color Pistachio Pudding and some of my favorite Tangerine Tango for the flowers.  I love the itty bitty punch pack for the little bit of something special it allows you to add to your projects.  Don't forget to check out the Inky Flowers Club which starts in a few weeks.  It is going to be amazing.  Some of the best Stampin' Up! demonstrators, and then me, are going to be part of it, you don't want to miss it!!!
Have a great day!!

Mosaic Madness

I had fun last weekend playing with my pre order of stampin up products from the new catalog.  Yep,the new catalog - it went LIVE on June 1st. I really like this stamp set and it's versatility.  I made this card for a friend who has been under the weather, its simple but still has some pizazz!  Hope your day is filled with stampin, mine will be shopping with my dear sweet momma!  Mom's are the best arent' they?  Well, I KNOW mine is...love her so much!
P.S. I know the Curly Cute stamp set is retired, but I love how the sentiments stretch across the entire page...I will really miss being able to demonstrate with this set, but I will still use it for me!!
Have a great day.
