Here are my picks for this deal: Flower Garden Embossing Folder, Perfect Pennants die and the Tasteful Trim die.  Let me know if I can answer any questions. Have a happy and creative day!

 OOPS! I forgot to tell you that Stampin' Up! has limited quantites of the 2012-2014 In Colors card stock back in stock.  

If you are interested in any of these please order them as soon as possible.  We have been told that once they are gone, they are gone!

I have  few more cards to share with you from the Stamp Ladies Fun Fold swap.  This beauty is from Kerri Gennett.  I love this card.

Such fun and happy colors.  Going to miss the Fresh Prints DSP stack from the Occasions Brochure.  

Super fun card!  Love this tricky but easy fold!

Ready for another fun fold card?  This one was made by Lisa Kirishian.  I know you are going to love this one too!

There's a fun surprise waiting for you when you open the card.

Who doesn't want a tower of presents on their birthday?

Here's the card I made for the swap.

The sentiment is from a new set called Work of Art which will be debuting in the new catalog.  I hope you have enjoyed all the fun folds.  

Wishing you a wonderful day full of happy moments!

Ready to see more fun folds?  This one is from Laurie Gaudette.  She certainly went the extra mile.

It is a pretty card but wait till you see it open!

Isn't it amazing?  I love it!

Here's a handsome card made by Kivonne Tucker.  This card is just a perfect man card, might be a perfect card for Father's Day.

Wait till you see this card open.

Such a clever card!  I love the folding she did.  I have more fun fold cards to share so come back and visit soon!  

Recently my Stamp Ladies team had a Fun Folds swap.  I am excited to share with you their fabulous creations.

First up is a fun fold card by Judy Toews. I love this folded star and it even fits into an A-2 envelope so you can mail it to the star(s) in your life.

Here's what it looks like open.

Isn't that just the sweetest?  

Next up is a butterfly easel made by Lisa  Brown.  This little beauty fits in a 3" x 3" envelope.

Here it is open

Don't ya love it?

Stay tuned I  have more fun fold cards to share in the the next few days. 

I forgot to post the Weekly Deals so here they are for the week of  May 6- May 12.

New In Colors,  Blendabilities, new ribbon, stamps and much more have arrived in the As the Ink Dries craft room!  What do you think was the first thing I played with? 

If you guessed Blendabilities,  you are right!  Blendabilities is Stampin' Up!'s newest coloring tools and  they are fabulous.  I have lots to learn but I had to share with you my first card.  

Stamps: Blended Bloom
Ink: Memento Black pad (love!), Cherry Cobbler Assortment Blendabilities, Daffodil Delight Assortment Blendabilties, 
Paper: Whisper White, Kaleidoscope DSP
Embellishments: Daffodil Delight seam binding ribbon, Rhinestone (colored with Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities)

The Blendabilities come in color assortments and each assortment (except for the Skin Tone Assortment) has a light, medium, dark marker.  This makes it so much easier to figure out the coloring and blending.  One thing I learned at the Catalog Reveal is you start with the darkest color and work lighter.  I know that is going to take some getting used to!  

I will be back to share with you the Weekly Deals and remember the Retiring Stamps list and the Retiring Accessories list.

The Stampin' Up! world is all a buzz with the unveiling of a new catalog and the introduction of Project Life by Stampin' Up!  I too am anxiously awaiting my pre-order of goodies from the new catalog.  In anticipation of the new products I am cleaning up my stamp room (again) and making room.  

I uncovered 2 boxes full of half finished projects, leftover card kits, and assorted other items deemed too precious to throw away.    I am working my way through the boxes and today's card started with the Raspberry Ripple inked and embossed layer.
