Stamping On The Bayou

Celebrate Independence Day!

Fourth of July is this Friday - family, and friends gathering together to celebrate our nation's independence! We used this cute invitation to invite our loved ones for BBQ, pool fun, and of course, FIREWORKS! Invitaitons are so easy to create for any occasion. Contact me for your next party. I can help you customize invitations and party supplies with any theme you can think of.

Using Vellum

This is an invitation I made for my niece's 1st birthday this August. My sister wanted a Pretty In Pink party for her so this is perfect. I love using vellum paper to create a soft layer. I embossed the images from Doodle This with Iridescent Ice EP. There is a faint touch of glitter from behind the vellum. It is quite lovely. Invitations are my favorite projects to create. You can use Stampin' Up! images to cater to any theme you dream of. Order either vellum paper or vellum cardstock for your summer projects today. You can view vellum in the Spring/Summer Collection here.

It's Wedding Season

I participated in a wedding themed swap on my Stampin' Up! cruise to Bermuda. All the swaps were beautiful and I'm so excited to share them with you. Handstamped invitations and cards add a special touch to any celebration. It is so easy to create custom themes with stamps and colors. There is no limit to what you can create. Just look at all the beautiful ideas in the Spring/Summer Collection. Need a catalog? Contact me today to get your copy.
