My April Paper Pumpkin Has Arrived!

And here are the cards that I made with the kit.  Of course, I added to add a few optional items but the kit itself contained everything needed (except adhesive) to create 4 cards as well as 4 envelopes to send them off in once they’re completed.

Clean and Simple Best of Butterflies Plus Some Blog Candy!!

I thought it was about time for some blog candy again…so lets chat about what we’d like to see in the new catalog!

If you’d like to be entered to win my blog candy package, just leave a comment on this post before Saturday evening (4/20/13) telling me either what item you hope to see in the new catalog or what item you’ll be sad to see retire (or both!) and your name will go in the hat to win!  I’ll announce the winner on my blog post Sunday morning.  Anyone can leave a comment, but I’m only able to give the blog candy to someone with a US address, sorry about that.

I’m hoping for new stamp sets that go with the existing Framelits Dies and some new Framelits too!  I think that I’m most sad about Baja Breeze leaving, it’s one of my favorite colors.  Don’t forget that Stampin’ Up’s retiring list will be posted on Wednesday, April 24 (and I’ll post it on my blog for you too) so you’ll have a few weeks to grab your favorite things before they’re gone.

Feel Goods Happy Graduation Card

The design for my card share today was inspired by the Mojo Monday 289 Sketch.  I used products from Stampin’ Up’s new Epic Day This and That bundle, which is available at a 15% discount through April 30 (click here to see the Epic Day This and That products available in my online store).  I wanted to make a graduation card for my niece who will be graduating from college in a few weeks, but I didn’t want it to be too girly.  This is what I came up with:

Epic Day This and That Bundle

We took the girls to the Oregon Coast for the weekend so I didn’t have time to finish up a card to share with you today.  So for those of you who haven’t ordered the Stampin’ Up! Epic Day This and That Bundle, I thought I’d share some pictures of what you will receive if you do order it.  I ordered mine up during the free shipping weekend, so it arrived right before we took off.  I only had time to pull it out and take some pictures for you.  I’m hoping to have more time to play this week!  🙂
