Flower Power Birthday

Good morning Stampers!

Many of you were probably up before this card was posted! I hope you had a productive Black Friday and were able to purchase all those items you had on your list to get to the stores early!
I can tell you that I did not go out. I try to stay out of the way of you who are so determined!
My turn will come when my son is another year or two older. I will get to experience the "have to find that toy he has his heart set on". I cooked yesterday's Thanksgiving dinner, so this is my day to just kick back, for a little bit. School still goes on!

I made this background from the Flower Power set a while ago. It was just lying around, so I had an idea.

What I used:

SU! Sets: Flower Power, Lots of Notes - SAB '08

SU! Cardstock: Riding hood red, white.

SU! Ink: Baja breeze, Tangerine Tango, Kiwi Kiss, Riding hood red.

Other: Spellbinder dies - circle and scallop; Green layer of cardstock is Crate Paper - scrapbook paper. It was sitting on my table and since I have a hard time throwing things away...it got taped and adhered. It really was a painless process for the Crate paper - LOL.

Happy Stamping! And enjoy those leftovers if you were fortunate enough to get some!

Simple Sunday - Wow Flowers (not Flower Power)

Good morning Stampers!

I'm baaack! We are back from our vacation! It was very relaxing and we had GREAT weather.

I will show you one picture that I took. Oh believe me..there are more and I will share them. But the picture from vacation is at the end of this post.

Feels GREAT to be stamping again!

I can honestly say that this is a D2 original!
During my vacation I had a chance to look at
a couple of scrapbook magazines. You see my August Stampin' Success did not come before I left - and believe me I was really hoping that it would have..AND my 2008-2009 Idea Book & Catalog did not show up either! A girl can wish...

I opened up the scrapbook magazine and saw the pattern (the red image stamped repeatedly) and then the color scheme - it was a red, yellow and blue. For that I substituted - Red Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze and Pacific Point. These are the 2008-2009 In Colors. The two I did not use was the Tangerine Tango and Pirouette Pink.

Stamps: Flower Power, Wow Flowers, Heard from the Heart - both coming in the upcoming catalog available August 11th. Both of these sets already come die cut..no cutting stamps before mounting them!

Inks: Pacific Point, Basic Black

Cardstock: Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze, Pacific Point

Accessories: Scallop punch, Silver Brads, Scallop Border punch - making its debut in the upcoming catalog!

Now, just one picture from vacation:
Oh..there will be more!
