Ampersand Embossing Folder and Natural 5/8" Chevron Ribbon Make a Statement

I created this card for my recent Birthday Card Buffet.  It was a hit!  We embossed and sanded the Core'dinations cardstock added some bold colors and topped it off with the new Natural Chevron Ribbon.   Just a strip of sticky strip holds it in place and makes this card unique.  I love how the ampsersand folder does so much of the layout work here.  Just add a quick coordinating dressed up greeting at the bottom and you're good to go!

Colors used here are Island Indigo, Early Espresso, Summer Starfruit, and coordinating paper from Soho Subway.

Thanks for looking today.  Now that I have a few things ironed out here, I should be good to be back at blogging now!

Color Lab!

This is so exciting! 

Click on the link for "My Create Ink...Color Lab" to play with color schemes to decide the best for you and your event.  There are pre-designed schemes to look through (they seem to be very Valentine's Day themed), but on the left, you can choose Stampin' Up! color families.  Just click on the color you like and it pops it in the box to build your schemes.  Be sure to play with all of the color families :) 

Thanks for playing :)

Engagements!

Check out the engagement announcements I finished last week, under the engagements page.  I think they turned out great, so classic and pretty!  Tell your friends who just got engaged...I can do their weddings too :)  Working on samples for those right now!  Thanks for looking.
