Happily Ever After!

My #workplacebestie Alysha gave me the honour of creating some special cards for her bridal party! I used her gorgeous invitation as my muse! The sentiment stamp is from an older stamp set called All Things Thanks. Sometimes I keep stamps that have more unique phrases like this happily ever after sentiment. I find that these unique phrases do not come around as often and definitely add to my collection of stamps. I have so happy with how these turned out! I used the new Pretty Peacock In Color on these cards too which as a perfect match!

Custom Card Design Option

Greece--3 weeks and counting!

Stampin’ Up! always does the most spectacular job on our travel documents. For every incentive trip I have been blessed to earn I have been gifted thoughtful and unique travel documents from SU. They always follow the theme of where we are visiting and gift us an amazing keepsake. Side note: I have an awesome collection of luggage tags!

CASE the Catalogue #2019

One of the best decisions I ever made as a team leader was to motivate and inspire my team to take on the challenge of CASEing every project in the annual catalogue! We have never completed the entire catalogue, but we work hard at the challenge. This ongoing project motivates my team to use their supplies, choose projects to CASE that inspire them and it opens the door for sharing and communication. The first thing I do when I have the new catalogue in my hands is look though it and mentally pick all of the fun projects I want to recreate. The best part is swapping these with each other. We all end up with some truly amazing projects!

Scrapbooking Tip #1

Something I hear a lot in regards to memory keeping is that people just don’t know where to start. If you are seasoned card maker or a newbie stamper, I often find scrapbook page inspiration from my cards. Try looking at your 12x12 as a ‘card front’. It is after all, just a bigger canvas! Here you can see how I took this card (inspired by a project in the new annual catalogue) and recreated it as a page layout! Often we have more space so we can add in extra phrases, layers or embellishments onto our pages too.

Who loves a rainbow?

I know I absolutely love a rainbow and when I can make something with a color scheme it just makes my whole heart happy! I was so excited to play with our new In Colors (Roccoco Rose, Pretty Peakcock, Terracotta Tile, Seaside Spray and Purple Posey) and add them into a rainbow lineup! I love how amazing our colors all look together! This layout was actually quite quick to put together using the Tailored Tag punch!
