Its time for the NEW!!

I've been waiting for that new Stampin Up catalogue and all the luscious new paper and ribbon. As much as I loved the old (and have a closet full of stamps to prove it!) I just needed a fix of something totally new.  

Here's a quick card that I made with the Pink Pirouette Cardstock (my new favorite!!) and the Sweet Bella designer paper for my brand new baby cousin! 

I also picked up the scalloped edge punch last week so that the girls could play with it Thursday at my Open House.  I'm a sucker for scallops and man oh man does this make the job ever so much easier!  In fact, it was SO easy that I scalloped both the front and the back of the card for a little scalloped note.  Several 1/2 strips of the Sweet Bella designer paper was stitched - reminds me of a little baby blanket and finished off with a bow of Very Vanilla grosgrain ribbon.  

Stampin Up is offering some truly fantastic promotions that I wanted to share with all of you!

From August 11-September 30, enjoy a 15% discount on select brand-new, die-cut stamp sets from the Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book & Catalog--no additional purchase necessary!

From August 11-October 11, potential recruits will have the option of becoming a Stampin' Up! demonstrator by purchasing one of three special mini Starter Kits* priced at $99.

If you have any interest in a catalogue, buying stamps, paper ink etc, or want to discuss why I love being a Stampin Up demonstrator and why you will too..... please don't hesitate to contact me!  

Hostessing a little party for "My Girls" on Thursday night, lots to do to get ready! But be back with more Stampin Up only soooon!
