I wanted to do some stamping tonight, and I also wanted to make some cards with the extra supplies from a recent Stamp-A-Stack.  I made 15 cards in no time!  I hope these cards inspire you to make a few cards yourself!

This card was one of the make-n-takes at the Stampin' Up! Regionals in Minneapolis, MN on Saturday, April 4th.  Regionals is an event put on by Stampin' Up! for demonstrators.  I learned a lot of great tips for workshops, and a TON of great stamping ideas!  It is one of the reasons I love to be a SU demonstrator!

The stamp set is Soft Summer and is in the Occasions Mini.  I thought I had enough flower sets, but after using this one, I think I may have to add one more to my collection!  The directions said to use markers to ink up the solid part of the flower stamp and then stamp it, but I decided to color the flower in with some markers (More Mustard, Old Olive, and Ruby Red) and then use my blender pen to blend the colors.  This was a fun, easy, and quick card!

It will be held at Mountain Bay School in Weston, WI from 6:00 - 8:00 PM. The cost is $21 ($10 of this will benefit March of Dimes).

Hope you can make it! Attendees will make one birthday card and 3 of each of the other cards (10 total).

I finished a can of almonds and I thought...,"I should stamp something on this!"  I used Raspberry Tart DSP on the can.  I made it stick with ModPodge.  The card stock is real red, cameo coral, and whisper white.  I stamped the flowers with StazOn jet black and colored with real red, cameo coral, and kiwi kiss.  Now I need to fill it with a yummy treat!
