Look Mom - No Stamps!!

Over the New Year's Holiday, I had the opportunity to play with some of my  stamps and accessories from the new catalog.  I have a favorite new toy - Rub-Ons!!

Here is a sample that I made using just the Rub Ons.  I colored the flowers in using Stampin' Pastels.  Not that I am giving up stamping - no way!!  They are a fabulous way to add depth and texture to any project.  You can't tell in this picture, but both these images are on the textured cardstock.

Here is another card that I made using the Rub-Ons.  Just the sentiment is a Rub-On.  In each package, you get 2 sheets, 1 each black and white.  It was nice to get a nice crisp white image without embossing! 

Check out My Favorite Card Samples for more of the cards that I made over the holiday.

The New Spring-Summer 2008 Collection is Here!!

Happy New Year!! I know that I gave you all a little teaser when I received my copy of the new Spring Summer Collection, but then you never heard from me again!!  Well, the holidays are over, the kids have gone back to school, and the Spring-Summer Collection 2008 is Now Available and can be viewed on the Stampin' Up! website. You can access it by clicking here.

In addition to some really beautiful new stamp sets, make sure to check out all the fabulous new Designer Series Papers!. I've included a description of all of the papers to help you know what the coordinating colors are. These are great as a reference when planning projects and when trying to come up with new color combinations to use in your projects.
