Creative Card Buffet - Summer Mini Style

Hi Everyone,

With the release of the new Summer Mini Catalog and all the wonderful products that it contains, I decided that this month's Creative Card Buffet would be a great opportunity to showcase how to use these new products.

Today's card share is one of the card designs available for this month's Card Buffet and showcases the stamp set Sentimental Journey and is accented with a brad from the Circle Designer Series Brads that you can earn free with the purchase of Sentimental Journey stamp set.

This stamp set is so versatile and works well for cards and scrapbook pages. With Father's Day less than a month away, this stamp set would be perfect to create that special Father's Day card and this would also work well as a Graduation or Retirement Card.

Think of all the wonderful scrapbook pages you could create using this set or choose a special moment and create a page to be framed and hung on the wall.

Like this card? Then I hope you will join me this Saturday at my home studio to create this card as well as other wonderful designs using the new products from the Summer Mini Catalog. Visit my Events Calendar for further details.

Tomorrow I will be sharing another card design that will be available at this month's Creative Card Buffet, so I hope you will return soon to see what I have to share.

Have a wonderful day.

Until Next Time.

Stampin' Hugs,

Tricia Butts

May is National Scrapbooking Month

Hello Everyone,
Sorry I have been MIA for so long. April was a crazy month and this month I am chasing time with end of school activities, so I apologize for not posting to my blog for the past month. Only 2 more weeks of school and then things should calm down a bit, I hope.

May is National Scrapbooking Month and Stampin' Up! has a fantastic special to celebrate and help you with your papercrafting projects.
Just purchase a qualifying scrapbooking stamp set (see list below) or the My Digital Studio software and receive a FREE package of Designer brads--choose from four designs!
