March blog hop!


Welcome to this month’s blog hop with Di's Country Inkers!  
 Our theme for this blog hop is Case the catty. This means we pick out a project in one of the Stampin’ Up catalogs and then “case” it (Copy And Share Everything). Here is the card that I came up with:


 I chose the bag on p. 34 of the Occasions mini-catalog and turned it into a card.  Here is what the bag looks like:


 I knew I wanted to send my card to my mother on Mother’s Day, and since pink is her favorite color, I used a different paper from the Have a Cuppa designer series pack stack – one that has pink in it, of course.  


 Because her card will be going in the mail, I eliminated the spoon and tiny tag embellishment at the top. 


 To add some subtle bling that was mail-friendly, I added a few clear sequins above the pool party teacup. 

You can purchase all of the Stampin’ Up products used in my online store (A Nice Cuppa stamp set, Cup & Kettle framelits, Bermuda bay stitched ribbon, crumb cardstock, doilies).  
 






If you ever get stuck for a design with your Stampin’ Up projects, just flip through the catalog(s) for great ideas!

The next blog you will hop to is Connie's.
