Punches and Designer Paper create beautiful design elements for handmade cards.

Hello Friends,

A couple of nights ago we had a lovely autumn thunderstorm.  Not a booming storm, more like a steady rain with an occasion crackle of thunder.  I slept like a rock and that's what inspired today's Rain or Shine Autumn card complete with rain boots and umbrellas.

With my much loved Autumn Punch Pack, Umbrella Builder Punch, and Plaid Tidings Designer paper at my fingertips, I was able to quickly produce lots of adorable design elements for my card.  Playing with my punches and designer paper brings back memories of playing with paper dolls as a little girl. The frame was created using two dies from my Layering Squares die set.  After that everything sort of fell into place.

Today's card required minimal stamping with the Under My Umbrella stamp set and a few inks and boom just like that my card was complete.

Hello Friends,

WhooHoo!  I have good news!   Look what's back in stock!  Detailed Bees Dies (Honey Bee Bundle), Poppy Moments Dies (Peaceful Moments Bundle), Painted Labels Dies (Painted Poppies Bundle), Garden Gateway Dies (Grace's Garden Bundle), Bonanza Dies (Bonanza Buddies Bundle) and the Label Me Fancy Punch are all back in stock.  Today's cards feature the Honey Bee Bundle with the Pressed Petals Speciality Paper.  

Stamping my images such as my beehive and my honey bee directly onto my designer paper adds interest and the look of texture.

The label on this card was cut with the wildly popular Stitched So Sweetly Dies which are also back in stock.  My complimentary colors are Blueberry Bushel, Soft Suede, Daffodil Delight and Pear Pizzazz. 

During Sale-a-bration the Golden Honey Designer Paper was all you saw with the fabulous bundle. The Golden Honey Paper is long gone, but there are so many other amazing possibilities for the Honey Bee Bundle.

If you have been waiting longingly for any of these Stampin' Up! products, you may want to snatch them up before they are gone for good.  The Stampin' Up! Retirement Lists will be announced next week and who knows what will be on the list.
