SFF--New Catalog TODAY!!!

Hi Stampers:

Today is THE DAY!!!!  The new Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalog goes live at noon Mountain Time, which is 2:00 PM my time--Eastern Daylight Time.  I can hardly wait to place my first order.  I have had a hard time deciding which wonderful new stamps and accessories I will add to my stash, but I have it pretty much narrowed down.  My new catalog OPEN HOUSE will be Sunday afternoon, June 24th and Monday afternoon and evening, June 25th.  If you live in the Cincinnati area, please contact me, and I will reserve a place for you!
Until I get new stuff, I have been playing with the Summer Smooches suite, which as a demonstrator I was able to pre-order.  I have both the physical items--DSP, Bright Blossoms stamp set, fabric, ribbon, petite purse die--AND the digital items, which I have been playing with A LOT!!! (LOL)

So again today, my project is digital--made in MDS.  First here is our sketch, created by the talented Sharon Wheet:
And here is my creation:
I REALLY LOVE the Summer Smooches items!  They are so bright and cheery and just make me feel happy!!  I have about 15 stamped items that I will be sharing with you over the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned.  Now, let's click over to MARIA'S BLOG to see what she has created.  And remember--we'd love to have you play along!  You can upload your creation on our SFF BLOG.

Enjoy!

Sketch Frenzy Friday

Hi Stampers:

I have been involved in a battle with my laptop for two weeks and every time I try to post a picture, it does weird things and locks up, so I can't post the sketch or my creation.  Please continue the tour with MARIA or go to our SFF BLOG to get the sketch and see the other great creations by our wonderful designers!

Enjoy!

Summer Smooches Easy Card

Hi Stampers:

It's Friday, Friday, Friday and time for another Sketch Frenzy Friday mini blog hop.  Our sketch today is from Deb Currier.  It's what I would call a clean and simple sketch.  Here it is:
I think it is a really cute sketch, but it took me a while to create my card.  Going into it, I knew I wanted to use the Summer Smooches items--they are SO BRIGHT AND COLORFUL I just couldn't resist.  I love ALL the designer paper and the stamp set, and the brads.  So much fun!  Here's my creation:
 I took this picture with my phone!  I have a new BlackBerry phone with a GREAT camera so I decided to try it out on this picture for my blog.  Hope it looks OK!  For the card I used:
  • Tempting Turquoise base
  • White dots on red piece of Summer Smooches DSP
  • Rich Razzleberry, Tempting Turquoise, Real Red, and Lucky Limeade Stampin' Write Markers
  • Daffodil Delight card stock
  • Summer Smooches fabric covered brad
  • Petite Pairs stamp set for the sentiment.
Well, now, enough from me.  Let's go see what Maria's up to with this sketch.  Click HERE for her blog.  At any time, if you get lost, you can always go to our SFF BLOG.  And remember, you can upload your own creation on the main blog.  We'd love to have you join us!
