Where is March going!? Life has been busy, so I am even more grateful than ever for my Stamping with Friends group to inspire me to get crafty and share my projects. Today’s Blog Hop is focused on our retiring in-colors. WAAAAA! I love love love this color group and I’ll be very sad when it’s time to officially say goodbye in early May.
If this is your first time checking out a Blog Hop, be sure to visit each site listed at the bottom of this post in the Roll Call so you can see all of my friends’ creations. Click the “Next” button at the end of this post to continue on the Hop to Tricia Butts’ post!
Here’s today’s card:
Not only does this project feature the retiring in-colors (and I managed to use all 5!) it also features other products that are retiring that are MUST HAVES for your collection: In Bloom stamp set (sadly, no longer available) and the Pierced Blooms Dies and Playful Alphabet Dies. I am telling you….RUN RUN RUN to my online store and order these items. There is really and truly nothing like them coming in the new Annual Catalog, and as of this post today all are still available. [Retiring items, including stamps and dies, are only available while supplies last.] The other thing to know…both die sets are discounted. The Pierced Blooms dies are only $18.50, and the Playful Alphabet dies are $27.20. WHAT?!
Here’s a close-up of these gorgeous flowers:
The HUGS was cut using the Foam Adhesive sheets. First you measure how much you need, peel one side of the dimensional sheet and add your cardstock, then run through your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine. Love the extra dimension that adds!
Here’s the inside of the card:
