Today I have a great collection of cards made by gals from my Stampin’ Up! family. First up, I have Mary Jane Ebie’s hand-stitched card.
The flowers are from “Wild about Flowers” and the designer paper is our new Envelope Paper. Don’t you love the stitched greeting?! Mary Jane used the Updated Essentials Pierce Pack to create the pattern for the stitches. Very clever!!
This beautiful ombre card was made by Amy Kunkle. Amy shows three ways to create this fabulous ombre look on her tutorial at Splitcoaststampers. Click here to see it.
I received this beautiful card from Terri Meehan, a leader in my Columbus family. She is two Stampin’ Up! generations above me. Don’t you love this Clean and Simple look? It is so fresh and pretty with the cool Mint Macaron stripes and sketchy leaves!
Last, but not least, a few from my upline Mindy Gray. She is a constant source of inspiration. This “Watercolor Wings” card is a swap she made for an event last month, and the two cards that follow are cards she sent to me.
Aren’t the Bohemian patterns and colors fun?
I love this sweet and simple card made in colors from our new English Garden designer paper. The prints in this series are so versatile.
As I mentioned, these cards were all made by members of my Stampin’ Up! family. When you join Stampin’ Up! as a demonstrator, you join under another demonstrator – in my case, Mindy Gray. This is why I make reference to “generations”. The associations are like a family tree, in more ways than organization. Having a crafting family is truly a blessing, and the big difference is this – you pick this family! You know you will be among people who share your enthusiasm for papercrafting when you join. Near or far, you end up with great relationships.
I was on my way to my “thank you” when I digressed…A big thank you to my teammates Mary Jane, Amy, Terri and Mindy for these wonderful cards today!!
Have a great weekend!
