I offered to make the table decorations for my beautiful cousin Grace's bridal shower this weekend.  I pondered for a while what would look best, and came back around to the petite purse die.  Since her colors are red & gold with pink accents, here's what I came up with! I used the Petite Purse die (pg. 233) and a similar texture folder to what I used here would be Beautifully Baroque (pg. 227). Cardstock is Real Red & Pink Pirouette. Champagne Glimmer Paper (pg. 193) Pearl Basic Jewels (pg. 209) The small flower is from the Boho Blossoms punch (pg. 219)

One of the most common statements I hear from new stampin' customers is "I don't know where to start."  Sometimes getting into stamping can be a bit overwhelming since there are so many choices of stamps, card stock and ink colors, and other produces like punches. (And we love those coordinating punches!) Paper Pumpkin is a great way to get started!  I like to call it my little Box of Happy for the month. Here are a few of the projects that have come in a monthly kit.... Paper Pumpkin is a great way to get started and grow your stamping fun!

I am blessed to have many wonderful friends and family who helped us welcome our little bundle of joy into the world.......thus, I needed thank you cards to express our gratitude!  I made these very simple with a thank you message inside. I used Stampin' Up! melon mambo paper and ink for the baby stroller and Staz-On black for the "thanks".   Like I said, very simple but totally cute!! Unfortunately, both of the stamp sets I used are retired, but you can check out these current ones as substitutes! (All located in the 2014-2015 Stampin' Up! idea book & catalog.)
