Happy Birthday, America!

Marching to the beat in red, white & blue is this simple patriotic card.

The card base is done in Brilliant Blue, designer series paper is from the Jackpot collection, and that fun "American as apple pie" image is from the Tart & Tangy stamp set. 

Speaking of red, white & blue - Have you seen the Country Living Cook Out Kit yet? 

The colors fit perfectly with the 4th of July theme.  However, this would be fantastic for any fun food gathering you have planned for the summer.

Today's card was created for my 6th wedding Anniversary.  I was sorting through my personal Stampin' Up! stash and came across the JackPot Designer Paper.  On one of the prints the word "heart" stood out to me.  It seemed like a perfect fit for the feel I had in mind.

So, I trimmed only that word out and mounted it on top of another print from the collection.  I like the simplicity of the card and the contrast of Kiwi Kiss against the Very Vanilla and Black patterned paper.

See that cute little heart peeking out?  Wonder how I did that?

• Punch out a 1/2" circle on the JackPot paper
• Stamp a small heart on Very Vanilla, punch it out using a 1" circle punch
• Adhere the Very Vanilla circle to the backside of the JackPot paper
• Adhere the JackPot paper to the Kiwi Kiss card base
• Using a Jumbo Grommet, pierce it through the cardstock directly over the punched out circle
• Bend the grommet's "legs" back using a bone folder or other hard object

There you have it ... a little peek hole for added interest.  NOTE:  The "i" and "u" are non-Stampin' Up! rub-on's.  But you could easily substitute these letters with an alphabet stamp set, chipboard letters or even die cut letters.

Remember ... if you love any of the Last Chance items ... get 'em while they're still around!

Re-Vamp and Sneak Peek!

Quick post to share two things today:  1)  This card that is re-vamped from a 3 x 3 card which I created earlier this week.  2)  A sneak peek into the Spring/Summer Idea Book & Catalog.  Yeah!! 

Check out this post to see the original 3 x 3 card along with the other 2 that I created.


Here's a sneak peek into the Spring/Summer Idea Book & Catalog.  You can start purchasing new Stampin' Up! product beginning January 19th.

I used the soon to be released "Just Buzzin' By" stamp set.  The paper is from a new collection called "Jack Pot".  NOTE:  The sentiment is not part of the set.  It is from Papertrey Ink's Honey Bee's Sentiments set.

TIP:  See all images from Just Buzzin' By and all prints from Jack Pot below.

My nickname given to me by my Mom is Buzz.  So, this is why Bee's are close to my heart.  I just HAD to pre-order this stamp set - and now you know why!

Pre-ordering is one awesome benefit of being a demonstrator.  Do you want to get in on the benefits too?

If so, check out my Be a Demonstrator page for more information.
