HELLO ( and soon good-bye) card

Images©Stampin' Up! 1990-2012



A happy Friday hello to all my stamping friends.  Thank you for taking a little break with me.
Tonight is Club Night for me.  I so love getting together with my friends for some conversation and time of creating cards, including the one above.  Don't you just how the colors all work together? So spring-y, just like the weather we are having here today.  And the layout adapts itself to a whole new look simply by changing out the colors, stamps and punches.

Here's what I used to make my card:
CARD STOCK Confetti White* base (that little dot peeking out from under the green strip is not a goof, it's "confetti") , plus scraps for stamped elements; 3-3/4" X 1-1/8" strips of Poppy Parade*, Blushing Bride*, Pear Pizzazz* and Peach Parfait*; and Crumb Cake
STAMP SETS:  Flight of the Butterfly*; Posy Punch*; Button, Button
INKS:  Poppy Parade*, Pear Pizzazz* classic ink pads; Versamark pad
PUNCHES:  Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer*, Butterfly*, 1" Circle, Fancy Flower
OTHER:  Circle Fire Rhinestone brads*

Did you notice all the *s in the lists.  Those are among the products that Stampin' Up! is retiring on May 30.  If your favorite is among them (or any of the ton of other products we will soon say good-bye to), be sure to visit the ,SHOP NOW store on my website. (Psst-- some accessories are being offered at discounts.  I hear the sound of money saved!). 

Until the next time,  happy stamping!
