Itty Bitty Buttons card and Prize Drawing

 Here's another card using the Itty Bitty Buttons, Bit, and Punch. I took a close up of the buttons, but the picture didn't come out very well, so I decided not to use it.  Hopefully, you can kind of see the stamp behind the buttons.  I know I've said this before, but this is a really cute set. I especially love the versitility of it.

I also made a test video, using this card, however, my computer is not reading the DVD-RW for some reason. I actually meant to use a scan disk instead, but forgot to put one in. Anyway, looks like I'm getting a little closer to getting videos up for all of you.

On another subject, over a week ago I mentioned that I had some exciting news and I posted a link for the curious to find out the news right away. Well, for those who don't know I am having my first give away.

I am soooooo excited to let you know about a drawing I will be having at the end of  June. From the month of April to the last day of June my goal is to get 50 custumors/followers.

Woohoo!!!  If I reach the 100 mark, then in addition to the items I've listed below there will be another SUPER prize, but that's a secret suprise. I will reveal it as we get closer to the 100 mark.

There is also an Itty Bitty Bits stamp set (hope to play with it soon).  This is so cool. Wouldn't you love to always have the right button for your projects? Well, now you can. With this adorable set you can make your own custom buttons. You can use the Itty Bitty Bits stamp set or just a coordinating paper, like I did in this project.  In my next post you will see more of these buttons.

FYI Vintage Vogue stamp set is leaving us at the end of this month. This is a very pretty set and I have used it a lot. If you haven't ordered yours yet, just go to my site http://www.lmdstampin.stampinup.net/ to order.

24/7 online shopping. How fun is that?!

Have a blessed day.

Enjoy the journey : )

Another Pop-out Card

Well, here it is Thursday and I have yet to make a video.  Copying and pasting the watermark, I added to the last pic I posted, to other pictures has taken me a couple of days to figure out.  Like I've mentioned before, I have a lot to learn. All I can ask is that you be patient with me. I'm bound to get all this blogging stuff down, eventually, if I keep trying. Meanwhile, here is another pop-out card I made. Hope you like it.

Recipe

Night of Navy and Whisper White cardstock, Whisper White 1/4" Taffetta ribbon, Whisper White Craft ink, Stampin' Pastels, Happy Moments stamp set, and Beautiful Wings embosslit.

The Beautiful Wings embosslit will be gone at the end of this month, so don't delay. You don't want to miss out on getting this beautfiful embosslit. Go to my Stampin' Up! site to order yours and all the other items used in this project.

Thank you for visiting.

Enjoy the journey : )

Birthday Pop-out card

The days go by so fast. I still haven't gotten around to video taping. I have so much to learn. However, I did learn how to watermark my cards. So I guess you can say I am making steady progress. It's just not as fast as I'd like. Oh well, some progress is better than none.

I wanted to add a post today, so here's a card I made for my oldest daughter's birthday. Unfortunately, it's late. I will be mailing it off today.

Lord willing, I will get a video up sometime this week. In the meantime, hope you enjoy the card. I used the Vintage Vogue stamp set for the background and the Spring Song stamp set for the image. The sentiment came from the Happy Moments stamp set. Stampin' Pastels and Classic ink colors are; Regal Rose, Night of Navy, Always Artichoke and Taken with Teal. Papers used are Whisper White and Regal Rose, and some pink scrap paper I had. Other accessories used are; Dazzling Diamonds, 1-1/8th circle punch, scallop circle punch, and Regal Rose 5/8th" satin ribbon.
