I had a great time crafting this past August long weekend! I was up until rather late to finish up the last one on Sunday evening. I don't know how long it takes everyone else but it takes me a while sometimes. Especially if most of it is my imagination lol. I tend to get a lot of inspiration (help) from Pinterest. Everything is so Beautiful and there are awesome techniques as well! I also really like the Mojo Monday Sketches, but they are no longer doing them :(  Thank goodness I printed them out over the years because I just find it to be extra help when you can't think of how you want your card to look. Anyway... The first card I did I used the Coffee Cafe Bundle from the current Catalog. It is quickly becoming one of my new favorites. I know it's silly but my favorite part is that the little cup die cuts the little cups from the DSP, I just think that is awesome. I hope Stampin' Up! does more like that. This is the first card I did on the weekend and I have ...

A full price subscription is only $26.95 (including shipping) a month, so getting it for half off is an awesome deal! Not a bad price even if you want to just try it for one month to see how you like it. Subscriptions can be skipped for a month or cancelled anytime if your not entirely pleased with it.  I love this kit! I have been getting it since it started, 3 years ago I believe. It is a great way to get some ink colors and stamp sets along with a project of some kind all in one place AND for an incredibly low price for what you receive in the kit!

I was so excited when I had a co-worker ask me for a couple cards this week! One of the cards I had on hand but I need to make one for the second card and I have to admit that I used Pinterest for a little inspiration! Here are the links that I used for the color combination and the original card that I looked off of to create mine. As you can see one of my Pearls is blue... the best way I have found to color them is to use Sharpie Markers. The colors are limited but when they work, they look so nice!
