Yeay! Whining really pays off...

Yep, I'm taking the day off on Tuesday... now I can CUT OUT MY BRAND SPANKING NEW STAMPS!! I came home tonight to a couple of Priority Mail lovelies :)


{squealing with utter giddiness}


Oh what will I use first?! Funny Farm?
Summer Boys? Oh... maybe Spunky Sprite Boys? Maybe go the whole grown up tailored look with Victorian Elements or Aged Ornaments... or maybe...

{giggle}


... stop it!

How about some more design call submissions...


On to tonight's show! :) First up, Penelope Forever Love:


Stamps: F
orever Family & Go Abroad

Paper:
Penelope SWIC & Cardstock

Ink:
Claret , Violette & Burnt Umber Palettes, VersaMark

Other:
Penelope Ribbon, Transcendence EP, Pop Dots, staples


All of the roughed-up edges for this one were done with my fing
ernail. I embossed the sentiment, and it really gives a nice sheen. The "LOVE" & heart are also popped up. I tried to work outside the color box from the usual lovey-dovey cards.


Next up, definitely a dude card... Pimp-My-Ride Anniversary :)


Stamps: Cars, Trendy Greetings

Paper: Winchester SWIC & Cardstock

Ink:
Noir Palette

Other: VersaMarker, Pewter Hardware, Pop Dots


I used the VersaMarker to create a very subtle shadow line under the car. And this baby was definitely distressed with a tool!


OH! Check this! All of The Angel Company's discontinued accessories from the last catalogue are ON SALE!! Yep, 25% off! You can either order directly from my online store, or email me (see sidebar) your order & you can get in on Customer or possibly Hostess Benefits!! Ask me how :) Supplies are limited so hurry!

can't wait to see what you do with the new rubbah! :) I will hopefully get some soon too and maybe your stamping mojo will rub off on my lazy-butt stampin' mojo which seems to have gone "on holiday" since seminar. :)
