Sweet Card Set & Fond Farewell

 

This is a fond farewell as my design team term with the Paper Made Bakery is ending this month. I wanted to send hugs to Shannon Fralish. She is our fearless leader at PMB. It was such a joy working for her. I just love her beautiful kits.

 

Pictured above is a sneak of my latest project using the "Classy Lady" kit. And keep reading to see my fave PMB projects that I've made during my term.

Am I Caught Up Yet?

 

Happy Monday everyone!

 

I'm back from my sunny California vacation. The weather was awesome! I had fun at Comic Con, Universal Studios, and I even got to meet several celebs from "How I Met Your Mother" and "Game of Thrones".

 

Whew....now I've got to get caught up on all of my blog posts.

 

Today is all about the Paper Made Bakery. I just love this month's kit. Here are two cards that I made.

 

 

I added some sparkly bling, ribbon, a stick pin, and a button. The birthday sentiment on the first card is from Fresh Squeezed Stamps.

The July Fresh Baked Kit is called "Classy Lady". Orders yours here!

I'm entering the first card in a couple of fun challenges:

 

Moxie Fab World - Birthday Card Challenge

 

Seize The Birthday - Anything Goes (STB #5)

 

Sarah Hurley Challenge - Pink Sparkles

Are You a Classy Lady?

 

This month's Paper Made Bakery Kit is just so classy!

"Happy Birthday Gift Cup"

I used my Lifestyle Crafts dies to cut different shapes to decorate the front of the cup. I also used Fresh Squeezed Stamps from the kit to add a sentiment.

The July kit is called - "Classy Lady"

I'm Turning Into a Geeky Stamper

I must admit...I'm really starting to get {ADDICTED} to stamping.

I still can't believe it myself! It's sooo fun!

What really got me inking up more are the wonderful kits at The Paper Made Bakery. I used the April Kit called - "Vintage Daydream" for this one. The stamp is from Fresh Squeezed Stamps and is included in the March kit.

I'm up on the blog over there today so be sure to check me out - HERE! 

Another confession.....I'm really, really, really proud of myself. You just don't know how much improvement I've made. (I've been practicing my stamping like crazy). That's why I had to show off this card today. (insert sheepish grin)

Here's my next accomplishment - {heat embossing}

Yes, I know....I know... I'm so behind on this stamping thing. I'm slowly but surely learning from you stamping fanatics.

Please let me know if you have any stamping tips for me. I really want to know where I can find some sort of clear stamp block with guide lines on it. This will help me stamp straight on the paper. Please help a sistah out with some recommendations! (Don't be afraid to be an enabler).

Challenges:

Simon Says Stamp - "Happy Mail"
