Stampin’ Up! Pop of Christmas Pineapples!

Hey, y’all!  Welcome to the week!  Hope your weekend was good – we welcomed Fall.  No kidding, thinking-it-might-be-time-to-switch-from-shorts-to-jeans, easy breezy, raining leaves Fall!  We’ve got the windows wide open to air out the house.  No one has started burning leaves yet, so we can even keep them open at night!  The grass will start to die off so the girls will be able to lose their much-hated grazing muzzles soon.  Even Bo is feeling perkier than his 27 years!  It’s wonderfully wonderful!   It’s the time of year that makes summer and winter worth putting up with here in Georgia!

As a result of the arrival of Fall, I made a card with…pineapples.  

Yea – there’s totally no correlation…

Just Us Girls was doing a Trend challenge – pineapples – so I decided to play along!  I pulled out Pop of Paradise and the Pretty Pines Thinlits.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Pop of Paradise Hello!

Good morning and welcome to Tuesday! 🙂  I’ve got an icy cold fruit drink for you today.  I know it’s gonna slide down cool and easy.

Well.  It’s a card.  That looks like a drink.  So…it would probably be good to not try to drink or eat it.  Cuz…well, you know….paper!

I was playing with a really tropical palette of colors and it sort of made me lean to the Pop of Paradise stamp set.  So that’s what I used to make a card that you could use for almost any occasion – or just because it’s Tuesday!  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Pink Pop Of Paradise Thinking of You

Made it to Friday again, y’all!  Yippee!  Only one more weekend and a week and then I’ll be on my way home! 🙂  Time for some home time – harvest the tons of tomatoes and Chile Peppers, maybe plant some more turnips – did I tell you I brought a mess of them with me?  Cooked them last weekend – oh my goodness!  They were sooooo good!  I froze a bag of them to take home so Wayne can try them.  But….they’re kind of calling my name – he may be out of luck!  If y’all like turnips and have a garden – get you a packet of White Ball turnips.  They’re spectacularly good!

No – I haven’t changed my blog to a garden show! 😉

Let’s do a card, shall we?  This one took me back to one of the first stamp sets I got in the new catalog – in the Demonstrator pre-order.  Pop of Paradise features a cute and saucy flamingo.  I paired her with one of the cool sentiments in the set and gave her a little assist from the fun Love You Lots set.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Pop of Paradise Thanks for a Single Stamp Set Saturday!

Good morning, y’all!  I’m kind of hoping that when you read this, I’m still half-asleep in bed.  And that all my stuff is in the car.  But – it’s also kind of likely that all my stuff is still piled up in my room.  And that I’m schlepping it down to the car.  Also possible that I was anxious to get home and so I woke up too early and got on the road before it was light.  Or close to being light.  We won’t know until tomorrow.  It’s a mystery.

But I hope I’m still in my bed! 🙂

It could happen.

For today – I made you guys a fun thank-you card using the uber-cute Pop of Paradise stamp set and a pretty green and pink color scheme.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Pop of Pink Paradise for the Happy Stampers Blog Hop

HappyStampersBlogPostBanner-2
Mornin’, y’all –  welcome to another edition of the Happy Stampers Blog Hop!  We’ve got a fun sketch today and I’ve interpreted it in a….tropical way.  To match the return of the muggies here in Savannah!  And traffic.  

Traffic isn’t tropical.  That was a little random association going on.  I thought muggy.  Then I got a brain picture of heat waves rising off of asphalt.  While sitting in traffic – which we do here every day on the way home.  Yukkk.  It’s as bad as Atlanta, I tells ya! 🙁

But – that’s not why we’re here.  We’re here to see some cards made by some talented ladies, who all started with this sketch:

12313635_1305624596130779_8167946357580835360_nI took a tiny bit of liberty with the sketch, but… the elements are there!  I used some of the new Pop of Pink Suite of products in the 2016-2017 Annual Catalog.  Some Pop of Paradise stamp set images, a little Pop of Pink DSP and some pretty Pop of Pink Washi Tape.  And I added a little bit of the Layering Love stamp set.  And a few surprises.  Take a look-see:

This was a card for a friend at work.  He’d gotten a Mother’s Day card from me.  Then a birthday card for his daughter.  Then he asked me for a “love” card for his fiancee!  This is a woman he knew way back when they were teenagers – then they kind of went their separate ways for 40 some odd years – and now they’ve found each other again.
