More Stampin’ Blends. Look how pretty this little teapot turned out. 
This is a little notecard – they are quick and easy since they come scored and with envelopes. For this one I added a piece of Old Olive Card stock that’s embossed with the Brick Wall Textured Embossing Folder.
The teapot and succulent bowl come from the Just Add Color Specialty Designer Series paper. I colored with the new Stampin’ Blends and then fussy cut them out for my card. I used the Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends.
The little greeting is from the Banners for You stamp set and so are the little leaves I added to the envelope.
I’m off to OnStage Live in Salt Lake City today. I’m going to try to add some blog posts while I’m away. But sometimes that doesn’t work as well as I want it too.

I’ve been having fun playing with the new Stampin’ Blends. I wanted to show you one of the cards I made.
Isn’t she so cute?
I used the new Stampin’ Blends with the This Little Piggy set. She is so happy on my card. Did you know you can also color the pearls? I have a little tiny pearl in the center of the flower and it’s colored with the Pool Party Blends to match the flower.
Have a happy day! Thanks for stopping by.

Well in the case of my card – Happy OWLoween!
It’s a fun card using products from the Spooky Night Suite.
The fun Spooky Night Designer Series Paper has the spooky trees that you can stamp the owl right on to. Then I used the witches hat print and cut out a hat to add on the owl. And the eyes are sparkly with the Black Rhinestones.
I stamped the Happy OWLoween stamp and punched with the 1″ circle punch and then used a 1/16″ punch for a tiny hole to string some Black Baker’s Twine through.
TIP: I often take my clear mount stamps and cut them apart when images and words are on the same stamp. So when I want to use them separately I can. And when I want to use them together I just mount them back together on my clear block. In this set the owl eyes and the Happy OWLoween together but I cut them apart.
Have a Happy Halloween!

Oct 26, 2017 | Paper Pumpkin |
It’s time for the October Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop sharing alternate ideas for the October 2017 kit – Pining for Plaid.
This time I have a quick idea for you. My favorite thing to do is to use Note Cards with the pieces from my Paper Pumpkin kits to make it go a little further.
For this kit we have the pretty card bases in the Old Olive plaid pattern. I took one of those and cut it into 4 pieces giving me enough for 4 note cards. Then I used the left over bits to decorate it. I still have plenty of bits left to do more. I’m in the middle of prepping for some other classes so my play time was minimal.
I added the Whisper White Note Cards and some Gold Thread plus Old Olive ink. I stamped one of the left over circle bits – this one looks like an ornament with the gold top. And used up an extra set of the banners. Super quick an easy.
If you didn’t notice this kit also coordinates with the Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper in our Holiday Catalog. So you could pull in some of that paper if you don’t want to cut up your card bases like I did for this card design.
Don’t forget the this October kit coordinates with next month’s Paper Pumpkin kit too! Be sure to be an active subscriber by Nov. 10 to get the November kit.
