Pals August Blog Hop

Welcome to the August 2017 Pals Blog Hop. Thank you so much for joining us today. This month we’re going to “Cut It Out”. Participants will feature projects with “cuts” from punches, dies, Framelits, Edgelits, or Thinlits.

Whether you’re just starting the hop, or have come from a previous Pal’s blog, you’ll find the line-up toward the end of my post to help you move along.
My project is made using the new Cat Punch and coordinating Spooky Night DS Paper from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  As a demonstrator I get to pre-order items and try them out before they are available to everyone.  
For the inside and sentiment I used the new Spooky Cat Stamp Set that also matches perfectly with the Cat Punch.  This was one of my top "must have" items in this year's Holiday Catalog.
I grew up watching a little TV Show called "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch" and she had this adorable, well; maybe not so adorable, talking cat named Salem.  As soon as I saw this design series paper, that is what I was reminded of.  
And being a cat lover myself, I happen to have my very own black cat named Fang.  He always seems to know when it is time to stamp and make cards.  He usually gets out all the ribbon...lol!
Please take a minute to mark your calendar for our next hop on September 13, 2017. Now hop along using the Blog Hop Line-up below. Thank you so much for hopping with the Stampin’ Pretty Pals today. Don’t forget to leave us a comment. We’d love to hear what you have to say about our creative “Cuts”.

Bits & Pieces For #GDP099

For this card I followed along with the Global Design Project Challenge #GDP099.  This week is a fun theme challenge. I chose to do an anniversary card as my own anniversary is coming up soon and I thought this was perfect for it.  To play along, head over to the Global Design Project and see what the design team came up with this week. 
I used the Background Bits Stamp Set for my sentiment and punched it out using the Pretty Label Punch.  I decided to use the Layering Squares Framelits Dies and the Lots of Labels Framelits Dies along with the Starburst Punch for the background layers.  The color mix is:
 
I added a little bit of silver metallic thread and some rhinestones for some bling.  This will make a great anniversary card for my hubby next week :)

Thank you for stopping by today.  Here are all of the Stampin' Up! products I used for this card.

Happy Mail Monday!

It's Happy Mail Monday!  Here are some of the wonderful cards I received this last week.  This one comes from the Stampin' Up! CFO congratulating me on a recent sales goal I achieved.  I cannot tell you how thankful I am to all my stamping friends and team for helping me along the way :)
I cannot tell you how blessed I feel to open my mailbox and see these hand made cards.  These two cards come from some very special people: Lisa & Kristin.  

Stampin' Up! Statement of the Heart:

Beautiful Bouquet for #tttc009

Today I played along with the Tic Tac Toe Challenge.  Make sure to head over and play along!  For this challenge, the board was created by Design Team Member Felicita Johnson.  Take some inspiration from the challenge board below, using three elements in a row of your choice. Whatever row inspires you is what you are challenged to create! 
I chose the trio down the right side of the board using the plants, stacked sentiment and all things round line.  I cased this card from my pal Windy Ellard, you can see her original creation HERE.
 
Of course I changed it up a bit to make it my own creation.  For the background I stamped the stems and leaves in Old Olive onto the Whisper White card stock.  Then I embossed using the Garden Trellis Embossing Folder.  These colors make such a pretty card and work so well with the Petal Garden Design Series Paper Stack.
If you are loving the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set as much as I am, make sure to check out my featured product in August here.  Thanks for stopping by today.  Here are all of the Stampin' Up! items I used for this card:
