Grid Cards

I have been stamping, honest! I've been working on dog-related cards as a Christmas present for my friend who volunteers for a dog rescue. It looks like there's going to be over 60 of them, thanks to my stamping friends who have sent me stamped dog images and phrases in abundance. (Being a cat person myself, I don't own a single dog stamp.) I will post pics of the doggie cards once the whole kit and kaboodle is finished.



My upline and stamping friend Hewitt snagged me last Saturday to make some cards using the Calendar grid stamp in the current Stampin' Up! catalog for something other than a calendar. These two cards use the Doodle This set, also in the current catalog.

Pomegranite and Wasabi? But it works!

I cracked open three new packs of paper this morning -- a full pack of Purely Pomegranite, a full Pack of Wild Wasabi, and an assortment pack of all of the new "In Colors." Here's the first card that I came up with...

SU! stamps: Doodle This, Doodle Jumbo wheel
Ink: Purely Pomegranite, Wild Wasabi
Cardstock: Pomegranite, Wasabi, Vanilla (looks better combined than it tastes!)
Other: Pomegranite and Wasabi double-stitched ribbon, foam dimensional for the flower on the right, blender pen for flower centers
