Lots of Polka Dots and Paisleys

This past Monday I had my monthly demo meeting and we did a shoebox swap using our new Polka Dot and Paisley stamp sets. It was fun to see the designs that everyone came up with! Even though we each designed our card using the same stamp set, every one of the cards were different. I thought you would like to see the variety.

Notice the long, So Saffron card in the middle? This card was done using the new long notes with matching envelopes available in the Spring Mini catalog. It also uses the Petals & Paisleys double-sided designer paper and one of the cool new punches - the spiral punch . Thanks goes to Kelly for designing a card that showcases so many items from the new catalog and sharing her long notes with us all!

The small turquoise matchbook style card on the bottom is also a gum holder...what a cute idea shared with us by Bea. I know I'll be making some of those at future workshops for sure! It is always fun getting together with others to stamp! Wait until tomorrow...I will show you a really cute card I made with one of my favorite stamping buddies - my Aunt Roberta.
