Colors! And Some Organizing!

Have I told you how much I love the Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers? I love to color with them, I love them for shading, and I love to look at them! Here are all my markers in their cute little trays I bought at our local craft store. It makes me happy looking at them!


And here is all of my card stock, in the same order as the chart on page 4 in the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog. The rack is actually wire cubes from Target. John helped me add more pieces inside the cubes with zip ties to make more shelves. The whole thing fits perfectly in a cabinet in my office. And it's just the right height to have my paper cutter right on top!


I didn't take this picture- it was shared on Facebook, but I had to share it with you in case you haven't seen it. Inspiration for this year's In Colors? M & M's! Pretty close!


Hope you're enjoying all the new colors! Happy Stamping!

Around The Corner Balloon Bouquet Stamp Share For Leaders Swap

My second card for the Stamp Share For Leaders swap using new items from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog. Around The Corner isn't just for corners!






Since the punch does a large and small balloon, I put the small balloons inside


Fun colors! I'm so glad Coastal Cabana is back!


Here's another color combination: Lovely Lipstick and Pineapple Punch

Love You To Pieces Puzzle Pieces Stamp Share For Leaders Swap

The second swap we did for Stamp Share For Leaders was using new items from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog that we couldn't pre-order before the catalog started. This bundle caught my eye the first time I saw it so it was on my first order. Here's my first design:






To make it easier to line up the puzzle pieces, I turned them over and taped them together, then put adhesive on them and attached them as one piece. 


I love these colors together!


This was my first card, trying to decide on colors
Berry Burst, Fresh Fig, Lemon Lime Twist, Whisper White


Another color combo
Bermuda Bay, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist, Whisper White
