Happy Wednesday All! Well I was going through many of my "cards" this past weekend and found this one and just had to re-create it.
It was a card that was done 5/6yrs ago by "Margaret Gruse" she was the 1st Demo I met. I'm not sure what the card was called..but I called it the "Explosion Card". ; ) I Loved the Night of Navy and Silver she used and so I kept the color and the Lay-out the same. Next photo is the inside of it. Isn't it to cool???
LOVE this card! Now I was going to try and do a photo tutorial but I think it would be way to many photos but I'll try if not I'll for sure do a video.
Supplies used:
Stamp set: *I {Heart} Hearts, Well Scripted
Ink: Night of Navy, Silver Encore
Cardstock: Night of Navy, Whisper White
*$2 from every I {Heart} Hearts stamp set sold will be donated to the American Red Cross' Haiti Relief Fund.
Order a set from your Demonstrator today. If you don't have a Demonstrator contact me or click on my link to the right to order your set.
Here is another version. This if the way the Original Card was done and it opens the same way.

Happy Stampin,
First I have to say Leadership was a blast! It was my first time going and all I can say is that it won't be my last! Stampin' Up! totally pampers you! Like my New "Bag"? I LOVE it and yes we got the Stamp set to!
I also stayed for Regionals which was also a Blast and my 2nd time going. My mind is on overload with all the new goodies I got and not to mention all the great ideas too!
Well things are finally settling down here somewhat. You would think I was gone for weeks!
Just had to show this next photo as Shelli surprised all of us with this new coming soon in the next catalog Stamp Set! Talk about a nice surprise!! Can't wait to start playing with it.
So have you noticed the Heart thingee on my bag yet? Well below is a close up of it.
This is one of Barbara Jackson's "Make n Takes" from her Over the Top Swap Event that was held on Wednesday night! It is a "Bag Tag". Is this too cute or what???I was one of her Helpers and let me just say
this event is "AWESOME". I'll be sharing my Swap along with some other great swaps that I received. Including the top 3 swaps over the next few days! So stay tuned and come back and check it out. I also have some cute little treat holder ideas coming along with step by step directions.
