I used all Stampin' Up! products to create the baby card above. The blue card is called Starry Night, (I think?) and the white card is Whisper White. The strip on the side is from some SU DSP. I recently became friends with a lady who was selling off a HUGE range of brand new Stampin' Up! products. I purchased lots of packs the cardstock in various colours. Instead of paying NZ$24.25 for a pack, I only paid NZ$7.50 a pack. So it was a good deal! I also purchased a stamp and die set as well as ink pads. As time goes by I will share more. So a big THANK YOU Alix!!
I made these small- 3 1/4 square, and 4inch cards by cutting up some of the Lavinia Stamps Scene-Scapes background cards I have and backing them on to white cardstock. I will (eventually) stamp on them and make the into cards. As they are right now, they remind me of the old photographs with white edges around them! Lavinia Stamps hav just released a set of these, plus some ne stickers and also some new Acrylic boards that you use for your unmounted stamps. Yes, I have an order coming with these new products in!
I haven't done much creating lately. I find Christmas very stressful. I have sent my overseas Christmas cards, but they are not my usual standard of card. They are not what I wanted to create. But with ongoing health issues (nothing that has put me in hospital, thankfully) that kept me off my feet and in bed for awhile, I felt so stressed and just couldn't do what I wanted to do. There's nothing wrong with the cards I made and sent, they're just not what I planned to send. Ok, I think that's all for this post! Thanks for dropping in today! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self and shine bright each and every day!
Christmas stresses me out, too! I have so much that I still want to make, and I’m not sure how I’ll be able to finish. I’ve barely even thought about my blog. Ugh. I’m sure the Christmas cards you’ve sent will be appreciated and admired by everyone who receives them! And congrats on the great Stampin Up deal. Card stock is always useful, especially when you get it at a good price!😁 — Andrea
ReplyDeleteSounds like you got a good deal. I know what you mean about lost mojo.
