I'm So Very Happy and Excited!

This is the card I swapped with fellow demonstrators from The Villages yesterday.  A group of 8 of us went to Orlando on Monday for the 2014-2015 annual catalog premiere.  I received this stamp set So Very Happy at Leadership in January.  You will be able to purchase it on June 2nd.  I used Wisteria Wonder cardstock and DSP.  I also used the circle thinlit, blossom punch, heart framelit, 2 1/2 ink circle punch.  I can't wait to show you all the cool new product in the upcoming catalog!

My Cards from Canal Street Class April 10, 2014

These are the cards I designed for class on April 10th.  I saw the idea for a punch art camera on Stampin' Connections.  I thought it worked great with the new polaroid picture die.  Instead of putting a stamped image in the center, I filled it with designer paper-retro fresh.  The you make me smile stamped image is from A Round Array.

The card below I designed after seeing a card by Mary Brown.  She used the same designer paper with the flower from Simple Stems.  The black dots in the flower were added with a marker.  The layout is my own.

Check back tomorrow for Nancy's cards.
