The beginning of March, I went to the Stampin Up Regionals in Calgary. I got some cards ready for swapping. Here is one card that I did. I just love the colour combination of the Very Vanilla and Soft Suede. It is very unfortunate that we will only have this colour until the end of June. I usually fall in love with one or two of the new "IN Colors" and then have to stock up on them before you can't get them anymore. I used the embossing resist technique with the With all My Heart stamp set. I also used an embossing folder that I cut up. This was by a technique that I learned from a fellow Demonstrator. Her name is Sandy McIvor. A customer of mine gave me a hard time and told me that the embossing folders can come in borders. Yes I know that they can, but they are not Stampin Up and they don't coordinate with an embossing folder. Another card that I swapped was done with Stampin Up's Stencils and chalks.
I also used the new Scallop Punch that is in the Sale-a-bration . It really doesn't show in the picture, but I colored the Satin Ribbon with a sponge and Stamp pad to match with the Blush Blossom paper. I really like using the Stencils. There are so many different things that you can do. I will have to play with them more. 'Til later.
