Tonight is stamp club! Yeah, we had a few months break from club so, I am excited to be getting together with my stampin' girls again!
This is one of this months club cards. I have just started to use the new Basic Gray color and am really loving it.
This is the quick and easy card for the night and at my club the 1st week of the month, they said it was their favorite! I have a hard time keeping it simple at times. I tend to put all kinds of detail and embellishments. But this card goes to show, it does not always have to be over the top to be a good card.
This card uses the Just Celebrate Set from the Occasions Mini Catalog. It is proving to be a fun stamp set and I am enjoying all the fun images and different sayings.
The butterflies are stamped with Basic Gray ink, punched out with the 1-3/8" square punch and the outline was colored in with the Versamarker. Then each square was popped with a dimensional. The four colors I used are: Purely Pomegranate, Wild Wasabi, Certainly Celery, and Pretty in Pink.
The background was stamped with Basic Gray Ink using the Polka Dot Background stamp. I "tied" it up with Basic Gray Taffeta Ribbon and punched the Just Celebrate saying out with the Word Window Punch.
BTW - I have a few openings in my Stamp Clubs. We meet once a month to stamp projects using the newest stamps, techniques and paper crafting trends. And each stamper gets a chance to be hostess and earn Stampin' Up! Merchandise for FREE. I have stamp clubs in Boise and Meridian, ID. If you are interested email me for more details.
Happy Stampin'

Very cute, I LOVE simple and this is proof that simple can be awesome!
