Celebrate Today

Hi there! Yesterday I spent most of the day doing some work on my Project Life albums for my boys. I spent a few hours sorting and the documenting photos from our family holiday to Florida in 2007. It brought back so many lovely memories and the boys looked so small and cute. I will share my pages with you another day.

Last week I had a new stamp set delivered - Celebrate Today. This was one of those sets that I didnt think I needed and then I saw some fab makes and I realised what a useful set it would be for both mens and womens cards. Then later on I was flicking through our demonstrator leaflet that we get from Stampin Up every other month, called Impressions. I just loved the makes on these pages in the leaflet. This is just one of our little perks for being a demonstrator. If you fancy joining up and getting £130 worth of product for £99 then please do contact me for more info. I made one small card based on a card in the leaflet as you can see below and then this fired up my creativity and I made another 3 in the series, all to match. I will share the other 2 with you another day.

So here is the little basic card based on the sample in the leaflet, very easy to do in multiples. The colours I have used for this set are Pool Party, Pear Pizazz, Hello Honey and Basic Grey.

Here is another card I made to form part of my displays. The hardest part? Sorting the bakers twine, tying it to the balloons and then tying them all together.

This stamp set is amazing value at £23.95 for 17 stamps or you can upgrade and get the matching framelit dies for a total cost of £32.95 so you don’t have cut those balloons out in a perfect circle!
