New Simply Sent
Card Kit
I love this set and all of the bright colors. This was one of
the things in my pre-order yesterday. The colors are just wonderful!!! Before I
keep going on let me show you what I'm talking about.

These cards were made with a new Simply Sent Kit and
everything you see below is included. You have enough materials for 9 of these
cards, 3 of each design with some paper left over for 3 more cards. All for
$15.95 when the new catalog comes out on August 10th. You even get the ribbon,
brads and buttons!!! The only thing you have to do is stamp on your verse or
saying. How easy is that? There is even a new stamp set to go with it called
"Wow Flowers". All I can say is it would be great if we got wrapping paper to
match! A girl can wish can't she?

I wish I had flipped over the piece of DP so you could see
the other side! The cardstock with the kit is textured also. Did I tell you I
love this set? It is gorgeous!
Instead of a Messy Desk, I have a Stamping Puppy!
I love this set and all of the bright colors. This was

wonderful!!! Before I keep going on let me show you what I'm talking about.
My demo pre-order came today! I had got it all on the
couch intending to start putting it away, until the phone rang. So Miss Lola
decided to investigate. I am so glad I keep the camera on my desk because I
would of missed this picture otherwise. I guess she couldn't wait to see
what was in those boxes.

She was so pleased with herself!
Since I already had the camera out, here are a couple more
pictures of my messy couch. I like the colors much better than I thought I
was going to, especially the pink and kiwi.


I plan to do some stamping
later so I should have some previews for you tomorrow. I was so looking
forward to the new Sock Monkey Stamp Set but SU forgot to include it, so I
am still waiting for it. Oh well, I have lots of other new stuff to play
with!!!
Star Balloon Box filled with Pixie Sticks
Okay so there are no balloons! There will be next
week as these are table decorations for a fundraiser I am working on. My
intent is put 3 helium balloons in each and attach the weight to the
bottom of the star box and refill with the pixie sticks. It should
create a festive centerpiece.
Star Box Pattern - I cut mine at 5 inches high

I was just checking this page for something and
realized I had not posted how I had used these with the balloons and it
is August! So I am a little slow! Here they are on the day of the party.
They made the room so festive.

One Week Later! Morning Glory Card
I love this set and all of the bright colors.
This was one of the things in my pre-order yesterday. The colors are
just wonderful!!! Before I keep going on let me show you what I'm
talking about.
I really had good intentions of getting back here
last week with a new card for you. Then a family emergency came up and I
was gone until the day before yesterday. I went over yesterday to my
uplines house to help her design some recipe pages which I will be
sharing tomorrow. I got busy last night and got this card done to post
today. I have had this set for awhile and had wanted to color it for
some time. It is gorgeous in real life, I sure wish I took better pics
so you could see the sparkle on this card!

Stampin Up Starts a New Year With Big News!
When I got up this morning I got a small preview
of our new catalog and a chance to pre-order some of new offerings
including the new In Colors. I am not so sure about a couple of them
but will hold off deciding until I have it in my hands. One of the
new Level 2 Hostess Stamps is a Sock Monkey! I remember my
grandmother making them for the younger kids one Christmas. I
ordered it so you will be seeing it soon. I also ordered Deer
Friends, a cute stamp set that is like Batty For You, only it is
Christmas, it also comes in Spanish, with a Santa with the words
"from the guy with the red suit", snowman "sweet treat", reindeer,
present, Christmas tree, swaddled baby with a shining star, ect. As
soon as my stuff gets here, I'll be adding some new cards to give
you a preview. I hope it is soon as it will be fun to be able to do
some convention swaps with new stuff!
The best news of all that is that all new stamp
sets will now be die cut! I am so excited because I hate cutting
stamps. It wastes the time I could be
stamping. You can also start ordering Decor Elements today!
While supplies last there is also a Hodgepodge
Hardware Promotion until August 10th.
