Don't fall off your chair....

Yes it's a new post!!  Are you amazed??  I've discovered that working full time will seriously effect the amount of time you have to craft, and even more so the time allocated to blogging!  LOL.

Anyhoo.....on to the card.

I made this one up for one of Steph's down line challenges.  I really like it, and I have rediscovered the confetti white card stock that is used for the base.  Loving it!!

One of my friends recently told me that my style has changed since she met me, and she's right.  I've found that sometimes less is more, and I really think the simplicity of this card is what makes it. 

Card Stock: Confetti White

Ink: Not Quite Navy

Stamp: Razzle Dazzle, Stem Silhouettes

Other: Blueberry Crisp DSP, White Organza Ribbon, Dazzling Diamonds.

More Bag Tags/Bookmarks

Thought I'd show you some more bag tags or indeed they could be bookmarks.  You might remember them from an earlier post where I showed you the children's versions from school?  Well, I had some sets cut to size, so I thought I'd do a collection.

Here are some close ups.  These ones use the Apple Blossom stamp set.  It's a Hostess Level 2 set from the new IBC and I LOVE it.

This one uses the Great Friend stamp set, returning from the previous Spring mini.  So pleased that it has returned.

These 2 tags use the Punch Potpourri Hostess level 1 set.

And these three use Razzle Dazzle.

Simply Said was one of the first stamp sets that I bought at my first workshop.  I don't use it nearly enough. 

Hope you like them.....

Blueberry Razzle......

 I finally received my first order from the new SU! catalogue.  Sooooo many yummy new products. 

This first sample features the returning (Yay) stamp set Razzle Dazzle.  I've teamed it with the co-ordinating DSP Blueberry Crisp.

You'll notice the new white organza ribbon too.  Loving the new ribbon.  Look at the height this ribbon will hold.

How cool is that!!

Here is a close up of the stamped image.  I've used the Rock and Roll technique to achieve the two tone effect.  Then I've added Dazzling Diamonds.  After all you can't have the Razzle without the Dazzle !!! LOL!!!
