One Happy Little Piggy

I cannot wait for the This Little Piggy stamp set to debut! Talk about a darling stamp set! Out of all of the new stamps in the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog, this little piggy is my favorite! He/She is just so happy and cheerful that I can't help smiling too!

We made this sweet card, created by Lenore Whitehead, at my upline's monthly demonstrator meeting. We stamped the pig sitting down onto watercolor paper and used the aquapainters to color him in using Soft Sky, Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, and Powder Pink ink.

The Hardwood background stamp really enhances the farm theme too!

The leaf patterned paper comes from the Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper stack. This is my favorite Designer Series Paper stack from the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog! Every double-sized sheet is just gorgeous! I ordered three packs during my demonstrator pre-order, and I know I will be ordering more come June!

Sneak Peek: Birthday Memories

I CASED this card from Beth Steele. She designed an adorable birthday card using the soon to be released Birthday Delivery stamp set and Birthday Memories Designer Series Paper.

The Birthday Delivery stamps set and Designer Series Paper remind me of the Golden Books I grew up reading. The artwork is just tremendously detailed, and the colors are super saturated. It is very nostalgic. The main characters are a chef, a poodle, a little girl, a birthday cake, and a fox. I love the poodle stamp! She reminds me of the character in Go Dogs Go!

Best of all, the thinlit dies fit not only the stamps but the Designer Series Paper! No more fussy cutting! Woohoo!

The inside of the card is ready to celebrate with three cute festive stamps - a present, a balloon, and a party hat! The greeting is perfect for your loved ones - whether inside of a card or as a tag on a present. The font is fun and playful too.

Come see this Birthday Delivery card in person along with dozens of more new samples at my Catalog Launch Party on June 17th from 1pm to 4pm! We will have door prizes, games, Make & Takes, demonstrations, and delicious food. See you soon!

Thanks for stopping by!
