Flamingo Lingo

3 x 3 Thursday: Flamingo Lingo!

021Pink flamingos!  How can a card get any better?  🙂

It’s 3 x 3 Thursday and here is another card that I’ve used as a thank you in my orders.   Little cards like this are fun and easy to make.

For some reason I’m extremely busy these days.  I can’t believe it’s almost October!  Sheesh!  I have events to plan and cut for as well as my every day (boring) chores.  I’d just like to sit down and play with all of my new toys from the Holiday Catalog.  I see so many adorable samples that I want to copy but I just don’t have the time!  🙁

I guess I should try to get more organized…..either that or stop playing games on my iPad and reading books!  Do have the same problem?  Is there a little something in your life that you enjoy doing that you shouldn’t do as much as you do?  Leave a comment and let me know.  I’d like to know I’m not the only one who wastes too much time!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!

I’m Off to Convention!

004It’s time to Party With My Peeps!  I’m off to convention in just a bit.  Can’t wait!  Woo Hoo!  There’s just something about hanging out with my fellow demonstrators, stamping, learning new techniques and checking out new products.  I LOVE it!  I’m so grateful that I can go.  Maybe you’d like to join me next year!  I’d love to show you the ropes!

This is my swap card for convention.  I’ll trade it for other cards and come home with tons of new ideas!  Of course I had to use my favorite Flamingo Lingo stamp set and my favorite color Melon Mambo because it’s PINK!  🙂

I’ll try to keep in touch over the next few days but if you really want to see what I’m up to at convention be sure to check (and LIKE!) my Facebook page.  Gotta go and get my bags in the car!  Have a great day and Happy Stamping!

My Absolute Favorite!

by

FlamingoLingo.0614Here it is! My absolute favorite stamp set in the new Stampin’ Up! catalog….Flamingo Lingo! Isn’t it adorable? I have this thing about flamingos. Not sure why, but I do.  When I first got that new catalog in my hands and was flipping through it this is the stamp set that I knew I just had to have!

I finally played with it last weekend and made tons of cards with it.  Ok…that’s a slight exaggeration but I did make a lot!  Here’s one of them.  It’s actually the first one I made.

 

010Don’t you love the scallop design on the card?  That’s made with the new Striped Scallop Thinlit Die for the Big Shot.  Too fun!  The thing to remember when using Thinlit dies is to place a sheet of wax paper between your die and your card stock.  This makes it so your card stock doesn’t stick in the die.

Don’t you just want to go on a tropical vacation when you see this stamp set?  I sure do!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
