Boy was this ever a roller coaster of a ride getting this card finished. I stopped by the
Create with Connie and Mary blog this morning, saw the color challenge: Tempting Turquoise, Tangerine Tango, Old Olive. Excellent, I thought...a fun summer card. Well...somehow I ended up with a Hello Baby card. I have no idea how. I've seen these adorable little pinwheels all over the web, and there is a fantastic new stamp set and coordinating paper in the
Stampin' Up! catalog. Thought I'd give them a try. Certainly these are going to become a favorite! Do you ever look around at your crafting supplies, slightly embarrassed by all that you have but secretly wish that the SU fairy godmother would just bring a few more things? That was me today. I kept thinking"" if only I had this die cut" or "that paper would be just perfect" or maybe "that new ribbon would be the best!". I could stamp for a year on just what is in my stash but seeing the new things makes me crazy for more!
Sorry for my rambling today...I just had too much fun in my stamping space today! Who knows what tomorrow will bring!

ReplyDeleteLove what you did with the colors. The pinwheel is perfect on the card. I, too, could stamp forever with my current supplies but SU and the new catty continue to feed my "addiction".
