New goodies from Stampin' Up!
January 5th marks the beginning of a new mini catalogue and some fantastic new stamps sets. Stampin' Up! decided to offer the option of unmounted red rubber stamps which means less space (the sets come in dvd style cases) and a very nice decrease in price. It is also the beginning of Sell-a-bration where you can earn free stamp sets and other product with a purchase of $65 or more.
I LOVE this card! Its so simple but I still pretty and I used all 6 sheets of the new paper and since its double sided there is 1 heart for each pattern of paper :)

It can be so difficult to make a masculine valentine with all the traditional pink and red so I went as masculine as I could with it still being fairly obvious with the hearts. I haven't done many cards with the wood but it now has me thinking about the possibilities a lot more because it looks great!

I was gifted with a squash scrapbook and I had to give it a try, here is my first one. I had to use the new DSP because its sparkly and completely gorgeous! It is so wonderful it was almost physically painful for me to cut it up to use. It uses 3 square sheets of cardstock scored horizontal, vertical and once on the diagonal. You adhere them together on one of the middle sheet of cardstock and then decorate with patterned paper and plain coloured cardstock. I'm so happy with how it turned out and this first one is off to my Secret Sister in her last package from me. I like doing the Secret Sister and I plan to sign up again for the next round.
Colours: Chocolate Chip, Pretty in Pink, Real Red

I see that you are in Calgary too. I would love to get together if you ever feel like it. I need more scrappy friends, most of my friends just don't get it.
