Clean and Simple Card Challenge

 Monday Monday, wow I need to get going. A day of phone calls about my house inspection and talking to friends and now I need to get ready for work. It is a crisp Fall day here but nice.

 I stamped this card for the Clean and Simple challenge which was a layout challenge. My card base is Midnight Muse and my second layer is retired Confetti Vanilla. I have a hole stack of it I need to use up.  Anyway I used the wonderful Gorgeous Grunge and stamped on of the images in Midnight Muse and the other in Pool Party. Geesh ,are you sick of that color yet? I have done a lot of cards with it and then when I looked at the color coach this was the choice again. I added some Candy Dots and it just looked too naked so I added the Needlepoint Border Embossing Folder. Then I stamped the Thank You which is from the Photopolymer Another Thank You and wow do I love that set. I  don't think you can ever have enough thank you's, do you? You could make this card a birthday or thinking of you or even a sympathy.

Another Thank You and Mystery Hostess

Happy Saturday night stamping friends. I just finished canning 18 pints of salsa today and I thought I would relax by stamping a card for the heck of it tonight.  I have had this Butterfly Collection Jumbo Wheel for quite some time but never used it yet. I got out a piece of Island Indigo Card Stock and pulled out my color coach and this was a color combo with Pool Party but couldn't really fit that in so forgot about that.  My base card is Naturals Ivory and then the Island Indigo and Calypso Coral. The Thank you is from the Another Thank You Photopolymer set. Then I also used the Papillion Potpourri set which by the way has that bundle with the Bitty Butterfly punch that is 15% off and only goes till the end of this month.  

Here is my salsa: 2 batches 

Now about the mystery hostess.... You must use this Hostess Code to be in the drawing: VWY62XK4
Simply place an order from my online store for at least $50.00 and get thrown in a drawing for hostess benefits. I will also have another surprise gift thrown in for the winner also. This is good till the end of September.

Got Envelopes?

Happy TGIF stamping friends, I am sharing a pretty card this morning I made for my friend and it has a matching envelope. I used the new Stampin' UP! Envelope Punch Board that will be available tomorrow. I will show you that tomorrow. You will definitely want and need one. I made the envelope out of card stock and stamped the same image on the card and envelope.  The card is using the Afternoon Delight DSP and the Best Of Shelli stamp set. I used the new Another Thank You Photopolymer stamp set and die cut it out with the Deco Labels Framelits. I added some random pearls and a shabby ribbon out of the Very Vanilla Seam Binding. I used Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant Ink for the card and tag. I used the Sticky  Strip to attach the bow and popped up the tag with the Stampin' Dimensionals.
