MAY 31 is the LAST DAY TO ORDER from this catalog.

I had fun combining some of my Spring Catalog embellishments on these 4x4 cards.

Did you see what I did?

I layered the pink lace trim from the Artisan Embellishment kit right over the Vanilla Seam Binding!! fun!

If you don't recognize the printed paper on this card... it's because it's a NEW SNEAK PEEK from the Soho Subway DSP pack from the NEW Stampin' Up! Catalog!

 I think my VERY FAVORITE embellishment EVER is the beautiful flower trim (on the card on the right).. it's available for a few more days in the Spring Catalog!

Cinco de Mayo SPECIAL through 5/7

--------------------------

When I grew up and shopped for a prom dress (back in the dark ages), I can assure you it looked nothing like this... but.. from what I have seen in the stores in the mall lately, this could absolutely be a 2013 Prom Dress!

Dress up glimmer roses

I used the Stampin' Spritzers with 70% rubbing alcohol and some Basic Black Reinker to spritz the Silver Glimmer paper for this dress (see this post for more info).. .isn't it gorgeous and dramatic!?

For MORE ideas spritzing your GLIMMER PAPER, click HERE and HERE

I also used the Stampin' Spritzers with 70% rubbing alcohol and a few drops or Regal Rose reinker to spritz the vanilla flower trim.

See video here for more ideas to color your flower trim.

Dress up glimmer roses 2

The background was embossed with the Lacy Brocade Embossing folder (#127819) and then sponged with a little Regal Rose ink.

Finish off this beautiful dress with Pearls (#119247) and some Vanilla Seam Binding Ribbon (#120999)

I sent this card to Shelli at Stampin' Up! after she had called to congratulate me on a sales milestone and we chatted about the Dress Up! ensemble ... I hope she liked it!

I was so excited to see this gorgeous card idea from Connie Babbert online a week or so ago, and I immediately decided we needed to make this card in my stamp class on Saturday!

Tea for two apothecary accents cards

Two things that really set these cards apart from your average card are the paper piercing and the pearls

Tea for two apothecary accents cards 2

BIG SHOT TIP:

When you are die cutting your Apothecary Accents label, you can die cut the oval out of the center at the same time! 

Tea for two apothecary accents oval die 2

Then use the little pieces from the side of your Stampin' Dimensionals sheet to place on the diecut before adding it to your card:

You know how much I love the adorable Dress Up Collection by Stampin' Up!, and I have been using the Dress Up Framelits (#130101) to make cute girlfriend Birthday cards!

Dress up sunshine sprinkles card

This dress form is set off by placing it on a Whisper White die cut from the Apothecary Accents framelits (#127003)

I used Sunshine & Sprinkles Designer Paper for the background and for the dress, and then I used a Stampin' Up! Doily (#129399) that I dyed with some Regal Rose ink in a cup of water!

Dress up sunshine sprinkles card apron

A bow of Rose Red Seam Binding Ribbon (#121844) at the waist finishes off this dress.

The Happy Birthday stamp (from one of the MOST OVERLOOKED stamp sets, "Made for You", pg 44 in the Annual catalog, #126340/126342) is stamped on a die cut tag from the Labels Collection Framelits (#125598)... I added some extra happiness to the tag with the Stampin' Paper Piercer (#126189) and the Festive Paper Piercing Pack (#127857).

My 2nd birthday greeting also features the Dress Up Dies in a snazzy color combo of Calypso Coral and Midnight Muse! 

Did you know you can make a cute collar for these dresses????  See below for instructions.

Don't you love the script background? It's a piece of printed paper from the Print Poetry Package, found on pg 16 in the Spring Stampin' Up! catalog, #129312.

Happy Day to You is found on pg 137 of the Annual Catalog and is available in wood or clear (#126149 / 126151).

The cute flower is from the Decorate A Daisy set, pg 115 Annual Catalog, #125989 / 125991.  I used it for both the collar and the punched flower below.  Top it all off with an In Color Designer Printed Brad, #122940.

Core dinations cardstock
It is currently offered in 3 colors in the Stampin' Up! Spring catalog on pg 12.

Sab stamp a stack hexagon core dinations

As you can see from the cards above, the beauty of this cardstock is that the core of the cardstock is a lighter color than the outside.. so when you use a Stampin' Up! embossing folder and the Big Shot to emboss the paper, then SAND it with the Sanding Block, you reveal the lighter color!
