Out With The Old and In With The New

Wow, can you believe it, today is the final day to place orders from the 2015-2016 annual catalog and the Occasions catalogs! Tomorrow morning the new and oh so fantastic new 2016-2017 annual catalog goes live! Trust me when I tell you, I can barely contain my excitement! This catalog goes way beyond fantastic! However, if there is anything on the retirement list that you really want, today's your last chance. Lots has sold out, but there is still a lot of great things left so feel free to check it out before it's gone forever in less than 24 hours!
Ok, now for today's card. I can finally share it with you. I had to keep it under wraps until after I gave it to my dad for his birthday and I didn't want him to stop by here and see it before he received it, so now it's in his hot hands and now I can share it with all of you. This comes from my oh so favorite new set, Swirly Bird stamp set! I can not believe how versatile this stamp set is and of course I adore the coordinating Thinlits as well....waves are compliments of the Thinlits!
 
The sentiment comes from the stamp set Thoughtful Banners. I totally love this set as well because you create sooo many sentiments, its almost endless the combination of words you can put together to create just the right sentiment. The colors I used are Mint Macaron, Night of Navy and for the "sun" Delightful Dijon, the boat is Tip Top Taupe and the flag is Real Red. I hope you enjoy this card, I think dad did. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below. I hope you all have a great day and happy stamping.

Throw Back Thursday


Hello! You will need to forgive me for being among the missing this week. Late Friday night, I was struck with the evil stomach bug and am continuing to fight with it still, not exactly the bug, but the aftermath of feeling extremely tired and blah. I also would like to take a minute to shout out to my fellow nurses, Happy Nurse’s Week! You all ROCK!

I have to say, I am so excited, today my pre-order from Stampin’ Up! arrives! I have been waiting since Tuesday at 4:30am EST when I placed my order and it’s finally going to arrive! Being able to pre-order is an awesome perk of being a demonstrator but this wait is killing me! I almost think it’s worse than suffering through the stomach bug, ok, well maybe not that bad…..at least I can pick my head up lol. Anyhoo, if you are a follower on my FB page, I plan to open the box live on FB so I can share the excitement. And if you’re not a FB follower, why not? No really, get over there and click like and join the fun! www.facebook.com/snsfromtheheart The live stream will be near as I can tell around 10pm EST as I do need to attend a Nurse's Week celebration this evening, but as soon as I get home, that box is getting opened, so join the fun and excitement!

Ok, for today, I did want to share a little Throw Back Thursday with you all. This card uses the retiring Sea Street stamp set along with already retired DSP from 2014.
 

Supplies:

Sea Street Stamp Set

Suite Sayings Stamp Set

Whisper White CS

Night of Navy CS

Cherry Cobbler CS

Night of Navy Ink

Cherry Cobbler Ink

Retired DSP

Decorative Label Punch

 

I hope you have enjoyed today’s card and I hope to be back soon with some fresh ideas from my pre-order to help get you creating!

Happy Stamping,

Mixing It Up with Sketches and CASEing!


Happy Tuesday! I hope you all are getting in some crafty time? I spent my Sunday in my craft room getting ready for Thursdays class and just playing around. I know I have mentioned before that we have a weekly sketch challenge over on my Facebook page, and I fell in love with a card design that fellow demonstrator Tami White had done, so I CASE’d her card changing up the layout and stamp set. You can see her original card here. And this is what I came up with.

I love these colors together. And I love this sketch.
You should visit my FB page and see all of the wonderful designs the ladies have come up with. So much creativity! It’s amazing! And so much fun! (Anyone is welcome to join us! So feel free)

I hope you all have a wonderful week and I will see you again here soon!

Happy Stampin’
