Orange and Turquoise

Today's card uses the To/From Petals set from Hero Arts and a fun, retro color combination, courtesy of the fab turquoise button from Audrie!





I've made a lot more cards this weekend but haven't had a chance to photograph them yet. Donelda, you'll finally get to see what I've done with the starburst stamps this week!



Update on the Grab Boxes

The grab boxes will be ready to ship by the end of this week. Once I have them packed, I will post a list of them...how many, what sizes, cost, etc. I will accept payments through PayPal. Most will contain general stamping supplies (card stock, ink, stamps, embellishments), but a few will focus on scrapbooking (small albums, 12 x12 paper, stamps more suited to scrapping).

I've had so much fun culling supplies! Some of what I'm getting rid of is simply over-stock. When you buy a spool of 18 yards of ribbon, you might use 3 yards of it (if you're me). Getting rid of the 15 extra yards is very exciting. I still get some to use, but don't feel like "ohmygoshIhavetouse18yardsofribbon!" There's lots of StampinUp stuff, including stamps, ink, reinkers, markers, and paper. There are even a few Papertrey sets!

  4. Gorgeous card, Susan. I love those colors together.
    It's like raiding your craft closet! I have no doubt it's excellent quality. ;)

  5. I love this card. It seems so fresh and happy to me. I'm not familiar with this Hero Arts set. I'm not up on their latest releases. I'm not sure if I should go look or not though...

  6. I read your post and it's funny ("ohmygoshIhavetouse18yardsofribbon!") but that is exactly why I don't usually buy in bulk. With the exception of White, Kraft & Black cardstock, and some special inks like Stazon, I only buy in small batches. Although I might not save as much money, I don't worry about 'having' to use it. When I spend for the future, it's usually a tool. I also give away or sell products yearly to be able to have room for new ones. Did I tell you I love your blog? Well I do, it's the only blog I actually READ and no only scan the photos. Thank you!-Hugs, Audrie
