Hello! Today is the first day that I'm finally able to pull out some of my new Stampin' Up! goodies and play! I'm sharing a card that I made this morning for the Play Date Cafe Challenge.
DEEtails:
Today's card features the new Delicate Doilies set from SU! Just fabulous! You know how much I like a good doily. :) I inked them in various shades of purple - Pale Plum, Lace Lavendar, Orchid Opulence, Concord Crush - and scattered them across my Crumb Cake card. Then I added some purple ribbon from my stash and a PTI Limitless Layer die cut. I added a sentiment from SU!'s Great Friend, which is retiring. So sad. I love that set.
Can you believe that we still have 6 days of school left?! Ridiculous, right? I know. The kids (and teachers) are definitely ready for summer! It's been a crazy few weeks! The end of the school year is always a busy time for me, which explains my disappearance from the blog world. I'm hoping that once summer vacation officially starts, I'll be back to my crafting routine. :) In the meantime, you'll get to enjoy a blog hop this week, featuring retiring SU! sets and my usual weekend Cupcake Inspirations post. Perhaps if I'm lucky, I'll get a few extra posts snuck in here and there. See you again tomorrow for some yummy cupcakes! :)
Pretty, Nina, oh so pretty! I have these new goodies too but haven't had the time to play with them yet. Thanks for the inspiration!

ReplyDeleteThis is really gorgeous - I do like that doily set!!
ReplyDeleteNina, I know all too well how busy the end of the schoolyear can be. I was just thinking that today, on the way dropping the kids off at school. Fairs, pool parties, game days...it's a lot of running around! So glad you found time to make a card for our Play Date Cafe challenge. I love what you did with that new doily set from SU! Gotta get my hands on that when it goes 'live'. Thanks for playing with us!
ReplyDeleteI love how you've used that stamp on Kraft with the pops of color over it. This card is so gorgeous and you've matched the colors marvelously! Thanks so much for playing along at The Play Date Cafe.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. I so hope we get this in our catty!
