Fast & Fabulous on Friday Using the Colorful Seasons Bundle

Happy Friday!  Today's card is one of the fold cards that is very popular right now.  What is great about these cards is that they create a beautiful scene for sitting on your desk but fold flat to either side for mailing.  Since there is not a good place for your handwritten message, you can add a piece of Whisper White to the back panel and write your message there.  While it is difficult to see in this picture, there is a strip of the Tranquil Tide piece of washi and a Lemon Lime Ombre Ribbon across the bottom of the interior panel which the Adirondack chair sit on.

Great News! The Daisy Punch & Bundle are Back in Stock....

Stampin' Up! received the shipment of Daisy punches earlier than first anticipated and they are back in stock and can be ordered now.  Click on my online store to get yours today!  Also, please note that Stampin' Up! is reporting "low inventory" on the coordinating Designer Series Paper so you will want to get that too before it runs out.

Also remember that July 31 is the last day to receive a $5 coupon for each $50 in merchandise which can then be used on an order in August.  Ordering the Daisy bundle and Designer Series Paper puts you only $8.50 away from that $50 mark.  I suggest a package of the faceted gems and some dimensionals to pair with these items for your cards and will kick you just over the $50 target.  I put both the clear and gold ones down below for you to select from.

Tippin' on Tuesday with A Little Wild Stamp Set

 There is something so sweet about this stamp set and while it says baby/child, it really can be used for anyone.  I mean, really, wouldn't this little bear bring a smile to your face if it came in the mail to you?

In the video, along with a few other tips, I show how to conserve your washi tape and also how to get colored faceted gems.  Finally, watch the entire video for a sweet tip at the end (literally)!

Fast & Fabulous on Friday - Label Me Pretty

 Have you heard the phrase "Life is what happens when you are busy making plans".  Well that was my week!  My apologies for those who were disappointed this week when no Tippin' on Tuesday showed up on YouTube or here.  I had been on vacation in Bodega Bay, California, and was not supposed to be home until yesterday or today.  Instead I received a call on Monday and was back in town that night and spent the entire day on Tuesday at the hospital with my mom.  Fortunately, she is on the mend and I am getting back into my routine.

Today's card uses the Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper which I just love!  There is just something about the black paired with the pastels.  The window sheet on the front adds an shine to the card.
I enjoy looking at stamps, punches and dies and seeing if I can use them in a way that is unexpected.  Here, I took the pretty label punch and cut them lengthwise to create this unusual bordering for the inside of the card.
