Hi there! Hope everyone had a good weekend. There was a lot of partying in conjunction with the Super Bowl yesterday - despite the weather! Mary Taylor and I felt it was in everyone's best interest to reschedule our Card Buffet for Feb 15 due to the icy conditions. Saturday it rained all day, then the temperature dropped below freezing that evening. It isn't going to get above freezing all week! I stayed all cozy and warm in the studio working on future projects. Speaking of projects, how about a couple since I didn't get a chance to post Friday? The first card was Diane Mikle's shoebox swap. She used the
Love & Sympathy set, which is a great set made for these occasions. The background panel was embossed with the
Decorative Dots embossing folder. This is just one of the Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration products that can be earned FREE with a $50 purchase (excluding tax and s/h). The stamped sentiment was cut out from a new Occasions Catalog item,
Starburst Framelits die. This was then matted onto a piece cut from Midnight Muse with the
Deco Label Framelits. Such a beautiful card.
Here is Kim Coulter's swap.
The honeycomb background was cut from a new item,
Hexagon Hive Thinlits die, which can be found on page 26 of the 2014 Occasions Catalog. The flower and bee images on the focal piece can also be found in the Occasions Catalog (page 21), called
Springtime Hello. A hostess set in the annual catalog,
Express Yourself, was used for the sentiment. The Tea Lace Paper Doily, Linen Thread, and pearls finish off this stunning card.
That's it for now. Your visit today is very much appreciated! Thank you!
