I actually did this card on Friday and didn't get the chance to upload. I used the new On Board Blossoms & Basics Chipboard and the new Soft Sky Prints Designed Series Paper on here. Couldn't resist using one of the new Rhinestone Brads in the center of the flower and edged the flower with glitter glue. I also edged the bottom of the torn black cardstock with the glitter glue.

I have been playing around again with theBaroque Motifs set and the Purely Pomegranate color. For the background I cut the Whisper White card stock to 5 x 3.75, stamped my image then cut it into 1 inch pieces. Mounted it directly onto the folded card. I added some brushed gold to it. I also clear embossed the medallion and the word cherish. I think it turned out pretty good.

I had a couple of friends over today and we played with some of the new colors and new Stampin' Up! sets. I think these two are my favorites of the ones we did today. The Cherish card was done using the new In Colors Soft Sky and Blue Bayou. The stamp set used is Wild Rose but I also used a little piece out of the Baroque Motifs set that I am really beginning to like more and more. I used the Crop-A-Dile to punch the centers out of the little flowers and then used Stickles Glitter Glue in the center. Just a soft easy to do card. The Find Joy in the Little Things card is done with Apricot Appeal and Blue Bayou which I think is my favorite new In Color. Stickles Glitter glue was also used in the center of some of the polka dots.

This is my stage one piece. I decorated the whole puzzle and sent off the other pieces to swap members. This is so much fun. If you are interested check out the PennyWiseArts Yahoo Group.

Here is the phase II of a Collabuzzle swap that I was in on the PennyWiseArts web group. I think it turned out great and I can't wait to get it framed.

I just have to add a few of my flowers here. Since moving I am redoing all my flower beds but Daylilies are my number one plant. I hope you like these blooms

Here is a Christmas card that I made using the Baroque Motifs stamp set coming the 1st of July. I really am enjoying getting a variety of cards with this new set

Here are a couple more samples using sets from the new Stampin' Up! catalog that is due out the 1st of July.

This is one of the new stamp sets in the 2007 Stampin' Up! catalog that will be available on July 1, 2007. I used one of the small images from Pick a Petal and one of the new chipboard pieces on this card. This also has 2 of the new In Colors for the upcoming year. Groovy Guava and Blue Bayou.
