Hi everyone!
It is a rainy Saturday in Georgia. It seems we have had alot of rainy days but it is a really good thing because our lakes are so low from the lack of rain last year. My parents and my brother all live up on Lake Lanier and it still needs lots of water to get to normal water levels. So rain is good for the lakes, but bad for tennis matches and soccer games. Luckily Ryan played his tennis match early – yesterday afternoon – he lost 8 games to 1 against a boy that was 13 years old and 6 feet tall! Greg’s tennis was cancelled and Ryan’s soccer game is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.
I wanted to share this card with you. It was the last project that we made at the STARZ meeting last weekend. I really like this style of a card – especially to use it for invitations. It is like a pocket and you pull out the inside panel where you can have all of your information. This particular one is a thank you card. The colors used here are Certainly Celery, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron, and Almost Amethyst. The Designer Paper is called Tea Party. The stamped flower is from Petal Pizzazz – but we ran the white cardstock through the Big Shot with a Texture plate first and then stamped the flower – which gives it a totally different look. You may also notice a new accessory on there too. Coming April 1st the new Occasions Mini includes new Designer Hardware – the center of the flower is a Basic Jumbo Grommet. These will come in an assortment with Basic Black, Silver, Very Vanilla, and Whisper White. The ribbon is the new Whisper White Organza Ribbon in the main catalog.
Enjoy your weekend!

I finished up the February Ribbon Share and they are ready to be picked up. If you requested it be mailed to you I will be taking those to the post office tomorrow. I was so pleased with the little bag that I made to put the ribbon in –
Ribbon Share Bag
Isn’t it the cutest thing! I just love using the Beautiful Butterflies die. First I die-cut the Chocolate Chip card stock with the Top Note die using my Big Shot. The stamp is from the Yummy set in the Sale-A-Bration brochure which I stamped in VersaMark ink and embossed with White Embossing Powder. I trimmed a small white bag to 3″ and used sticky strip to attach in between the two top notes. I used the small oval to punch a hole through all the layers to create a handle. Then I used the Beautiful Butterflies die and the Delicate Dots Designer Series Paper to cut out a Butterfly with my Big Shot. I sponged More Mustard ink on the edge of my butterfly and used some Linen Thread to add the body. I put that on with dimensionals. The bag is tied shut with a piece of the So Saffron ribbon from the Sale-A-Bration ribbon bundle. I was very pleased with the result – I hope you like it.
Here is a picture of the bags filled with the ribbon:
Feb 2009 Ribbon Share
Jan 27, 2009 | SU Ribbon |
I’m going to be trying some new things this year – and one of those is a Ribbon Share. The Stampin’ Up! ribbons come in various styles, widths and Stampin’ Up! colors but not everyone needs or wants 10 or 15 yards. And if you want to have some of all the colors you might be spending lots on just ribbon. So I am going to offer a monthly ribbon share. What is a ribbon share? Each month I will select one style of ribbon that we will share between multiple people. The price will vary depending on the ribbon style and how many different colors there are. I will purchase the ribbon, split it up and package it in a creative way for each participating person. I met several demonstrators at leadership that have been doing ribbon shares and their customers love it. I hope you will too! Below are the details for my February 2009 Ribbon Share.
