Beautiful You and New In-Color Card

     Welcome back! Today for you I am spotlighting one of the new In-Colors...Grapefruit Grove. When the Beautiful You stamp set came out last year I instantly fell in love with it. The sentiments can be used for so many things. Here I used it for a celebration.


     When I was a teenager my fave color at the time was peach. If I saw a peach piece of clothing in the store I HAD TO HAVE IT! It is still one of my all time faves, but pink is definitely #1. Funny how through life our color preferences change. I think that is why I am so drawn to this color, because it is a beautiful shade of peach, but trust me when I say Lovely Lipstick is at the top of my list right now!


     I also love these new Pearlized Doilies. They give a great little shine and interest to your card. I put the two square layers off centered a bit to also give more interest too. This in fact is very hard for my to do because I am very OCD about things being perfectly aligned. Lol.


     I love to heat emboss things, especially sentiments. It offers a little bit of texture, and I love texture or the look of texture on all the crafty things I do from card making to Project Life to scrapbooking. I carried the look of the pearls from up above down to here too. The Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon is new as well and comes in both Whisper White and Very Vanilla and could easily be tinted to any of the Stampin' Up! colors.


     And of course I stamped the inside too. I used the small flowers from the new stamp set Love What You Do which look so perfect over the smudge stamp from Beautiful You. I hope you like it.
Hugs,

Julie

     Hello again everyone! It has been a bit since my last post. Things got really crazy right before Christmas and then we went on a 2 week vacay. Well, I spent most of that vacation sick with a terrible cold that caused me to get a sinus infection. NOT FUN!!! But I am back today with a really fun post. I am participating in a Blog Hop with other Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the globe. You may or may not know but this past week on Jan 3rd the new Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs were released and boy are they amazing! I wanted to spotlight the beautiful bundle Beauty Abounds. Here is my card...      What is really cool about this card is that it uses a DSP (Designer Series Paper) from the Sale-A-Bration catalog that if you got this bundle you could get for FREE!! I started with doing a simple watercolor on watercolor paper with a few different colors and then let it dry. I used the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits to die cut the watercolor paper. I highly recommend

First Frost Valentine's Day Card - Kylie's Training Blog Hop

     Hello again! It's that time of the month again for a fabulous blog hop from Kylie's Training Group. These are so much fun because you get to see so much inspiration from demos around the world. And with Valentine's Day just a few days away I wanted to share with you a fun card I did that anyone would love to receive on that special day or any other special day. Here it is.....      I started with using the embossing paste mixed with a little of the Flirty Flamingo reinker. Did you know you could do that??? You can make it any color you want to match your project! Remember though that a little goes a long way. I then used the stamp set First Frost that was carried over form the Holiday catalog and matching dies to make a whole bunch of flowers in different colors.      I also used the Meant To Be stamp set and matching dies to stamp and cut some of the hearts as well as the sentiment. I also used the Champagne Foil paper and one of the Frosted Bouquet dies to
