New In Colors, July Specials, and More!

I'm absolutely in love with the new colors offered by Stampin' Up! this year, and I've been playing particularly with a deep color called Razzleberry. At my June 19 Open House, you can play with Razzleberry, too, as well as with the Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper.

This card will be our featured free make-and-take for July:
Supplies: Razzleberry Card stock, Very Vanilla Cardstock, Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper, Crimper, Corner Rounder, Scallop Oval Punch, Large Oval Punch, and Fundamental Phrases Stamp Set, Razzleberry Classic Ink Pad.

I also made this cute little 3 by 3 book, perfect for a quick album:
Supplies: Razzleberry Cardstock, Very Vanilla Cardstock, Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper, Crop-A-Dile, Crimper, Scallop Oval Punch, Large Oval Punch, Fundamental Phrases Stamp Set, Razzleberry Classic Ink Pad.

Cut a strip of paper 3 inches wide by 12 inches long; score at three inch intervals, then fold accordion-style with the pretty side out. Punch holes and set gromets at edge. Crimp 1/2 inch strip of Razzleberry Cardstock; adhere. Punch Scallop Oval out of Razzleberry Cardstock; adhere. Punch large oval out of Very Vanilla cardstock; stamp with sentiment, and adhere.

Done!

Finally, a cute card I made with one of our new stamp sets, Animal Stories. It goes very well with the Garden Whimsy set, and I'm absolutely in love with the elephant.


Supplies: Razzleberry Cardstock, Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper, Razzleberry Ink, Creamy Caramel Ink, Nearly Navy Ink, Paper Snips, Animal Stories Stamp Set, Garden Whimsy Stamp set.
