Pretty flowers in a row...

I have some more sneak peaks for you today and a look at one of my favorite new color combinations! Here is my card:



Goodies:
All products by Stampin' Up!

Stamps: Day of Gratitude, Tiny Tags, Woodgrain
Ink: Pear Pizazz, Peach Parfait, Soft Suede, Pool Party classic inks
Paper: Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Pear Pizazz cardstock; Peach Parfait, Pool Party textured cardstock
Accessories: Lace Ribbon boarder punch, Dotted Scallop Ribbon punch, Jewelry Tag punch, Linen Thread

Don't these colors look great together? Calm and serene but still bright enough to be interesting, right? I love it!

I'm so happy that Day of Gratitude came back to join the big catalog this year- it truly was a stand out from the last holiday mini- I am glad to be stamping with it again!

OK! Off to do something fun now! Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Sweet Little Boo Card

Hi! I thought I'd pop on really quick and post a fun little card that includes a gift I made yesterday:



Goodies:
All products by Stampin' Up! (except for the felt)

Stamps: Tiny Tags, Woodgrain
Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Crumb Cake classic inks
Paper: Crumb Cake cardstock; Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie textured cardstock; In Colors DSP

While perusing through my blog reader yesterday I found this write up about a fun book called Witch Craft. I thought the little ghostie pin was too cute so I decided to give it a try! And of course, when I was done with it, I had to put it on a card! :) Hee! It has a pin, too so that when I give it away, the recipient can wear it.

I love it when I'm inspired to try something new! How about you? Have you ventured into new crafts on a whim lately?

Hope you are enjoying your day!
