Flower Shop Bundle

I purchased a new stamp/punch bundle from the new 2013-2014 Stampin' Up! catalog. The bundle is priced 15% lower than buying the stamp set and punch separately. This bundle is the Flower Shop Bundle. I wasn't sure I would like it when I purchased it, but after using it, I love it.

Swap cards for Facebook

I joined a swap on one of the facebook groups I belong to.  I find so much inspiration for card making there.  
There is a sweepstakes winner for every swap.  There is no theme to the sweepstakes card.    I used some retired products on my cards.  The object is to use Stampin' Up! products on your cards.  If you don't have a lot of Stampin' Up! products you can use products from other companies.  Everything I used is from Stampin' Up!

The theme for July was Birthday.  The colors I chose are Chocolate Chip (stitched ribbon and ink), Regal Rose (card stock and ink), and very vanilla (card stock).  I used the Bitty Butterfly punch and the Elegant Butterfly punch on both cards.

Current Products are available in my online store or you can contact me to order.
