Beauty Abounds

 Cammie created a beautiful background using the Beauty Abounds #148726 stamp set.  The girl was stamped using the , Beautiful You #151412 stamp set, colored, hand cut and then placed on the focal panel.

Congratulations Beautiful You

 Happy graduation from Hickory High School to my beautiful niece Meredith! I used the oh so popular Beautiful You #151412 Stampin Up Stamp set and added a small square and tassel for the the mortar board in the Hickory school colors.  The diploma was a scrap piece of copy paper rolled up and tied with bakers twine. Love how it turned out!

April Calendar

 Birth month is over and I have flipped the calendar to April so now I am back to my normal postings rather than daily birthday posts! Today’s post is the calendar page I altered for my friends calendar that I made her.  It features the Stampin Up Beautiful You  #143637 stamp set.  To add texture I used the cloud mask from the Pattern Party Decorative Masks the and the Shimmery Embossing Paste #145645 to create the clouds.

Hello Gorgeous

 Pink and Black were meant to go together and I pulled out some of the now retired Pop of Pink Stampin Up DSP to use for today’s card/  I added the sentiment and the woman using the masking technique and the Beautiful You #143004  stamp set to create this birthday card.

She’s Back

 I was so happy that Stampin Up brought back the Beautiful You #143004 stamp set in the all new 2018-2019 Annual Catalog so I decided to use up some old DSP to make a card.

Beautiful You Returns

 The 2017-2018 Stampin Up catalog introduced the Beautiful You #143004 stamp set and decided to carry it over into the next 2018-2019 annual catalog.  I was so happy because it is a very fun and versatile set.

Celebrate Life

Well I thought I was going to make it thru the winter without getting the flu but low and behold it hit me over the weekend but thanks to the miracle of Tamiflu I am feeling alive and well again! To celebrate, I made this fun card featuring my favorite and most used stamp set in the Stampin Up annual catalog- Beautiful You #143004.  The patterned paper for the background and the dancers dress are from the retired collection Pop of Pink.

Brighter Days to Come

 It’s been awhile since I posted a card using my favorite stamp set from the Stampin Up 2017-2018 annual catalog- Beautiful You #143004.  I used leftovers from the now retired Pop of Pink DSP from Stampin Up for the background and to piece the umbrella and the girls dress.

Boo-tiful You

 For today’s post I am posting a card and a treat because I love a card that has a theme and a play on words and when you can add a treat that makes it a double bonus! This is my favorite card I made for Halloween this year and it features the Spooky Night DSP # 144610 and I used the image from the Beautiful You #143637 and colored her in with my Lemon Lime Twist Stampin Write Marker and dressed her with coordinating patterned paper from the Spooky Night collection and added a hat hand cut from the Spooky Night paper. I modified the sentiment from the Beautiful You set by adding a banner with a Boo from the now retired Mr. Funny Bones stamp set.

Now to carry out the the Boo-tiful Theme, I created a treat using some witch candy I found at Dollar Tree.  I just did a simple reverse Matchbook design and cut an oval frame to showcase the witch.  I made these to give to all the Boo-tiful ladies in my life.

Brighter Days Ahead

 For today’s post, I combined two popular stamp sets (Beautiful You #143004 and High Tide #143006) in the Stampin Up annual catalog to create this beautiful uplifting card.
