A Thank You


Now that the holidays are over, I needed to sit down and get the creative juices flowing to make my thank you notes for the gifts we received at Christmas.

I just started stamping, so I am still working on my supply of product to work with. But, honestly, do we ever STOP getting supplies? No! Never!

I instantly LOVED working with Stampin'Up product, so I joined up as a demonstrator so that I could get my stuff at a lower cost to me. AND free stuff too!! Gotta love it!
Anyway, back to the card. I used:

paper--Very Vanilla, green card stock, DSP Greenhouse Gala and patterned stack brights-orange
ink--Pumpkin Pie
stamps--For all you do-butterfly, Easy Events-thank you
ribbon--bundle green
punch--decorative label

Done! Easy peasy!

I hope you love creating as much as I do!

Hugs,
Robin

My New Blog

This is my new blog about stampin' and creating with paper. I love it! It is such a great outlet for me. To let myself be free to do whatever I feel when I see colors and textures and light. I am new to the Stampin' Up world but I decided to jump right in and start my business. But more importantly I want to learn lots of new techniques and then share them with you.

Sooo...bear with me while I get my blog up and running.

I will be posting soon and have some pics of the projects I am plan on demonstrating at my very first workshop. My upline Bev has ever so graciously allowed me to use her garage/ AWESOME work studio for my first workshop. The projects will be a Valentine and a Valentine's goodie box to put some yummies in for your sweetheart or someone who you just want to give some yummy goodness too! Chocolate always makes people smile! ;0)

Hugs,
Robin
