I LOVE new stamps!!!!

So....I just got my first order of 2008 and got started right away!!! I have two workshops coming up in February just in time for Sale-a-Bration so I thought I would start getting my cards ready. I did two out four last night and thought I would share them with you! My theme for this set is FRIENDSHIP.


This first card uses an older set which is an absolute favourite of mine as well as a brand new set from the 2008 Spring/Summer Catalogue. I've used Heartfelt Thanks and Celebrate Everything. For paper, I used Lovely Lilac, Very Vanilla, and some of our Almost Amethyst Designer Series Paper. Simple but still beautiful!


The second card will celebrate Sale-a-Bration! And I got the idea from this card from the Stampin' Up Stampin' Success online extras. Stampin' Success is a monthly magazine that gets sent to all demonstrators. It has great ideas for workshops and building your business. And you get it just for being a demonstrator. So...this card uses Friendship Blooms which can be found in the Sale-a-Bration brochure. I've used So Saffron and Certainly Celery cardstock. For the flowers I used Regal Rose and Bashful Blue on Whisper White cardstock. I then cut the images out and attached them with Stampin' Dimensionals. To "tie" the card together I used Very Vanilla wide grosgrain ribbon. I attached the ribbon to the back of the card using Sticky Strip. The quote in the bottom right corner says, "Your friendship makes me HAPPY."

Enjoy and Happy Stampin'!
