SU! WHAT'S OLD IS NEW AGAIN!

My Crafting and Stamping Friends challenged themselves to use a SU! stamp set that was retired and hardly used or never used and to create a card we can send today.  This first card was designed by Lisa Chatterjee using SU! IN COLOR SWEET SUGARPLUM.  I had to go replenish my stock of this card stock because I love this card and the color.  Great job Lisa!

The card above uses one of last year's SU! SALEABRATION stamp sets.  This card was designed by the amazing Cindy Pfeiffer. This is such a cheery card. We used the SU! watercolor pencils and painted the colors on the front.

I'll share more of our cards soon.

ANOTHER GREAT CARD FROM MY SU! STRESS BUSTER CLASS

This was another great card we did at the Medical Staff Stress Buster class.  It is very similar to the BEST GUY EVER card from the other day. This one uses SU! Butterfly Embossing folder and some different sentiments.  The ladies loved this card. Some made it a birthday card, others a thank you and one made it a sympathy card using different sentiment stamps.  It was a fun day and even alleviated my stress. This is another cased card from Connie Stewart.

I love the glimmer paper. Just a simple touch like that with the adhesive backed pearls, make this card exceptionally sweet. Hope your day is perfect!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY PAPER PUMPKIN SU!

This month SU! MY PAPER PUMPKIN turns 4 years old!  Happy Birthday!  I understand a very special kit is on it's way to my house as well as to all of the subscribers to MY PAPER PUMPKIN - which is a monthly kit in the mail from SU! It has everything you need to complete the projects inside your cute adorable box.  I buy mine as a subscription and I am guaranteed to get it in the mail each month - some cool new surprise. At my Medical Staff Office stress buster day, we made the FEBRUARY MY PAPER PUMPKIN which was a birthday candle gift card holder. It was so cool to put together. Watch the video I attached at the bottom to see.

As the card holder slides out it says Happy Birthday to You!  It's cool!  And then if you add a gift card, it's even better for the recipient. I think it's possible some of my nieces will get mine.

This can also be used as a birthday party invite.  There are endless possibilities and by searching the web you can see some variations other creative hands made with this kit. I can't wait for the special March kit, especially since it's my birthday and I will feel like it's part of my celebration.

WISH BIG AND BEST GUY EVER SU!

We made this card with my medical staff office for a stress buster 2 weeks ago. We made several cards and this is one design.  The other's I will share in coming days.  This card was cased from Connie Stewart.  I gave my card - this first version - to my brother FRANK for his birthday today.

The card below is the same but I added corduroy buttons - remember those?  I also added some specialty paper that was in last year's SU! catalog.  It came in the tan and white color.  Loved that paper and think I used it once. It really adds nice texture to the card.

I think I can give this card to my husband for father's day or our anniversary that is coming up.

 

GET THIS SU! GLIMMER PAPER FOR SALEABRATION WHILE IT'S AVAILABLE!

I absolutely love this SU! glimmer paper.  It's one of the BEST SALEABRATION ITEMS from SU! I also love the MAKE A MEDALLION stamp set. I earned both for FREE from SU!  Note that the medallion and friend sentiment are embossed in SU! white embossing powder on the soon to be RETIRING MINT MACARON card stock. Get yours before it goes away with the rest of the 2015-17 colors leave us!

The glimmer paper is so gorgeous. Sorry the photo doesn't do it the justice it deserves. You need to see it in person!

HAPPY BIG MILESTONE BIRTHDAY TRACY!

It's Tracy's Big Milestone Birthday!  I am thrilled for her.  Enjoy every moment of this great year Tracy!  Your card is made with Rich Razzleberry base card stock and I die cut the numbers with the NEW SWEET SUGARPLUM Glimmer Paper from SU! that I earned from Saleabration.
