Typeset Card

Another piece of art using the New papers! The Milepost Shapes are corrugated cardboard pieces, so all I did to create this look was run my ink pad over the corrugated part. So cool and adds that extra pop.

In just 2 more days, you'll be able to view the newest Idea Book online!

Sneak Peak--Artwork from the New Idea Book

 Here's a one page layout I created using some products from the NEW Autumn/Winter 2011 Idea Book. I immediately loved this paper pack. The coordinating embellishments are awesome too-- Cork Alphabet and Canvas Stickers.

3- D sized stamp sets-- three!

Stampin' Up Catalog

Click on photo to see it up close.

Pam, my Stampin' Up consultant, gave me a copy of their new Catalog last week (thanks, Pam!). I think their catalogs are so beautiful! Their stamp images are awesome. I want to own all colors of the 1 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon! I love that stuff. It's like the chocolate and white ribbon that came in the CTMH You and Me Kit.

Anyway, I created these 3x3 cards using CTMH supplies, but inspired by the Stampin' Up catalog. I love using that book for inspiration. I used several different stamp sets and inks, so I'm  not going to list them out. Simple, yet cute cards.
