Medallion Notebook

This morning while I listed to a recording of the Stampin' Up Convention 2013 Webinar I made this cute little notebook to take notes in while at convention.

I somewhat CASEd this from the new catalog. If you have not received one and don't have another demonstrator let me know and I will get you a catalog.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Daydream Medallions stamps set (w131976 c 126467). It is so fun to layer. I wish I would have bought it in wood though since I use it so much. I also love the new in colors. Here I used Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe and Baked Brown Sugar. Check out the fun new Ruffle Stretch Trim in the new in colors also. So fun! LOVE IT! If you would like to purchase a share of the new trim you get 5 yards. One of each of the 5 new in colors: Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding & Strawberry Slush it is only $5.25 per share. That does not include shipping.

Thanks for looking and have a great weekend.

Convention Swap

I have the hardest time coming up with convention swap cards. I usually made a full card, but noticed that most people just do the front. So this year I got smart and just made card fronts. I wanted to use the new in colors and this is what I came up with.

Double embossing is super fun and looks fabulous. I inked my chevron texture embossing folder with versamark and then put my paper in and ran it through the big shot. As soon as it was through I added a little Iridescent Ice Embossing Power and heat set it. And there you have it a beautiful background.

My little buttons are made with the new Simply Pressed Clay 130685 and the Buttons & Blooms Simply Pressed Clay Molds 131272. If you pop them in the freezer for a second with the clay in the mold they come out so much easier. Or if your mold has been in the freezer for a bit they are easier to get out in one piece also without ruining your image.
