I really enjoy the Fifth Avenue Floral set, but I keep calling it Manhatten Flower! Last year, when the Manhatten Flower Decor Elements came out, I immediately thought, "I wish there was a stamp set like that." and then POOF, next catty, there it was! If only that worked for everything..."I wish I had a new deck."...(looks outside...Nope, no new deck).
Stamp sets: Fifts Avenue Floral
Colours: Soft Suede, Baja Breeze, Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Soft Suede polka dot ribbon
Stampin' Addicts is running a very generous offer...giving away a TON of Big Shot dies! All you need to do is link them to your blog...isn't that easy? You can see all the details HERE.
I don't have any of the fabulous dies they are giving away...so I hope I win! :)
Stampin'Addicts is a great place to hang out...so friendly, fun and positively Stampin'Up!
I LOVE the level 3 Hostess set Lovely Flowers Bundle! The paper is so pretty! I paired it with my favourite set, Great Friend (love the butterfly).
Stamp set: Great Friend
Colours: Old Olive, Crushed Curry, Razzleberry, So Saffron, whisper white
Accessories: Old Olive grosgrain ribbon, dimensionals
Trendy Trees and Funky Forest wheel were my favourite sets from the last catalogue and I bought them right away. Sometimes, when we get excited about all the NEW stuff, we forget about old favourites. I still LOVE these sets and decided it was time to play with them again.
Stamps: Trendy Trees, Funky Forest wheel
Colours: Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Dusty Durango, Crushed Curry
Accessories: So Saffron wide ribbon, Apricot Appeal grosgrain ribbon, clip, word window punch, scallop punch, dimensionals
I borrowed this set from a friend, but I think it will be on my next order. It's so cute and suits the new in colours so perfectly!
I embossed the "cheers to you" background and also added Dazzling Diamonds to the drinks to make them sparkly.
Stamp set: Cheers to You
Colours: Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, Whisper White
Accessories: Dazzling Diamonds, Versamark, clear embossing powder, scallop oval punch, large oval punch, dimensionals
OK, it's a little early for Thanksgiving...but I just love my new Autumn Days set and just had to use it today. I am not totally in love with this card...but I do like it.
Stamp sets: Autumn Days, Teeny Tiny Wishes, Sanded
Colours: Dusty Durango, Soft Suede, Sage Shadow, Whisper white
Accessories: word window punch, modern label punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1 3/4" circle punch, hand held punch, natural hemp twine, dimensionals
On a side note...do you notice how often I use my punches? They are absolutely the BEST investment I ever made.
Oh no! There was a huge mishap at the robot factory and tape shot out everywhere! Luckily, this little guy came to apologize with a bouquet of flowers!
Stamp set: Lots of Bots
Colours: Bermuda Bay, Basic Black, Certainly Celery, Whisper White
Accessories: spiral punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1 3/4" circle punch, scallop circle punch, dimensionals
Poor guy...he's not feeling well. He has a broken arm and he's all rusted! LOL!
I used the new Lots of Bots and new In Colours Dusty Durango and Bermuda Bay to create this card. The binary image panel was created using the spiral punch.
Only 3 more days til the new catalogue goes live!
I love the sentiment "Friend to Friend" from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set...and it fits nicely in the new Modern Label punch. (these items are in the new Idea Book and catalogue available July1st)
Stamp set: Animal Stories, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Card Stock/Paper: Soft Suede, So Saffron, Tall Tales DSP, Whisper White, Old Olive
Accessories:Modern Label punch, Sizzix Movers and Shapers Punches, Sizzix Little Leaves, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1 3/8" circle punch, Soft Suede ribbon, Texturz Plate
So after uploading the card yesterday, I looked at it closer today and decided it wasn't quite right. I decided it needed something hanging, so I made the leaf circle tag. Once that was done, I decided the image needed to stand out better, so I stamped it on white card stock. I think this tweaked version is much better than yesterday's version...what do you think?
I got my new stuff from my pre-order (well, most of it). The pheasant set just came Tuesday. I LOVE it. I really wanted this card to have the new Happy Thanksgiving from Teeny Tiny Wishes (also new) but that set didn't come in yet, so I made it into a father's day card.
I used new In Colours: Dusty Durango, Crushed Curry and Soft Suede.

Thank you everyone for visiting...hope you'll all be back!
Welcome to the Bon Voyage Blog Hop, Port of Call #5 brought to you by Stampin' Addicts. I am showing projects made with the stamp set Holiday Trinkets. You have either joined me from stop #4 Kathy's blog or stop #6 Connie's blog...either way you go, you will hop from blog to blog and make a full circle!
This first project uses Real Red, Pretty in Pink and Whisper White as the colours. I stamped the images in Versamark and embossed them in silver and white for a very modern twist! I also used the set Many Merry Messages for the sentiment.
I went a little more traditional with this card. Night of Navy, Real Red, So Saffron, Glorious Green and Whisper White. The sentiment is from the french version of Many Merry Messages, called Nombreux Joyeaux Messages.
Finally, I created 3x3 cards that would make great gift tags. I used the soon to be retiring In Colours: Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze and Riding Hood Red. I also added In Colour striped grosgrain ribbon and embellished with buttons from the Button Bouquet collection.
Please leave a comment to be entered to win my blog candy...Yummy stamp set, 1 roll of So Saffron ribbon and 1 roll of Certainly Celery ribbon.
So my scanner is finally working again.
I made this card a few days ago, using the Fifth Avenue Floral set. I also used the Top Note die. To put the ribbon through, I used the horizontal slot punch. I stamped the extra flower, cut out and used dimensionals to pop it up. I put Dazzling Diamonds glitter in the center of the flower.
I finally gave in. I caved. I finally broke down and bought the Fifth Avenue Floral set. I have seen so many awesome projects made with this set I decided I needed it!
I used baja Breeze, Kiwiw Kiss and Riding Hood Red as my colours. The sentiment is from the On Your Birthday set.
Don't forget to check out our Blog Hop beginning June 13, brought to you by Stampin' Addicts!
