Introducing Tip Top Taupe!

The new 2015-16 Catalog is live! Click the photo of it in the sidebar -------------> to see the pdf, or scroll down to the Shop Now button -------------->  and browse it in my online store!

I thought it would be fun to show you the new In Colors. Of course, there is no such thing as a "new" color, but tints and shades and all that technical stuff can make a color seem fresh and bright and trendy! Stampin Up chooses the In Colors based on the Pantone projections for hot new colors--the ones you see in home decor, clothing, paper supplies, and more.

Today's focus is Tip Top Taupe. It is featured in the fun new Designer Series Paper Stack "Cherry on Top," just to make it easier to love. I really think we will love this Taupe, as it goes with everything and makes a great neutral! I'm still mourning the retirement of Baked Brown Sugar, and Tip Top Taupe is helping to console me.

Shiny Graduation Stars

We made this card at May's Stamp Club meeting. Doesn't everyone need a graduation card this time of year??? The larger star in the left corner is inset--we die cut the shape from gold foil, then die cut a "nest" for it in the cardstock. It's also a farewell card to one of my favorite colors:  Baked Brown Sugar!

I think this is my favorite card from next month's Card Buffet! It features some products from the new (live today!) Holiday Catalog, such as the Star Confetti Punch and the Lucky Stars Embossing Folder. This makes a great card for a birthday, a love note, or an encouraging note for a friend.
