Brand Spankin' New!

Looks what the man in brown delivered yesterday....the new Happy Heart Day Stamp set and Bali Breeze DP from the new Stampin' Up Spring Summer Collection Preview Catalog!!!! It arrived late in the day and we had tickets for a Christmas concert last night. Two Christmas parties today... so, not much time to mount stamps or make cards, but come on....with a stamp set this cute and DPs this gorgeous...I couldn't leave them alone = )! I mounted a couple of the stamps and got a "quickie" card made for Jen's SCS limited Supply Challenge ...to make a simple 3 x 3 card. You can see the LSC145 challenge HERE! Great way to try out my new stamps and papers. I am mounting this set a little differently to make it more "useable" for my preferences...and I'll show you how I'm doing that along with the other great stamps in the set in the coming week!! There's an elephant that's begging to be stamped....but he'll have to wait, just a little longer. I also received another new DP called Ginger Blossom...and it's so pretty! These two DPs from the new catalog are among the prettiest papers I've ever seen!!! Also received the new Eastern Elegance Rub-ons....can't wait to try those out too!! For this card I used one side of the Bali Breeze DP for the heart and the other side for the background...the colors are amazing...you're gonna LOVE these new DPs = ) !!!

Supplies for this card:
Stamps: Happy Heart Day Paper: Rose Red, Basic Gray, Shimmery White (love that stuff) & Bali Breeze dp Ink: Black Stazon, Rose Red Accessories: SU Markers and Blender pen, Silver cord and Silver Stickles (no punches...hey, I think that's a first for me)

Enjoy your weekend and stay tuned for more samples of those gorgeous new DPs, Happy Heart Stamp Set and Eastern Elegance Rub-ons! = )
