New Stamps

I recently received my box from Paper Pretties with my new My Favorite Things set Hit the Beach. I love this cute set - so many possibilities . . . .

This first card is the one designed by Christie Ortman, the owner of Paper Pretties. Isn't it cute? I love the teeny, tiny bling in her belly button! The instructions and color photo for this card were so easy to follow and everything was pre-cut - how easy is that??

This next card is one I made using only the supplies in the box. I wanted to make something different but not use any of my supplies. I think the beach ball background came out cute, but does anyone know how to use the white gel pen without getting line streaks??

Finally, this card again uses the paper in the kit (the red stripe is reversible to these blue stripes) and I added ribbon that I bought from the Paper Pretties store as a "Suggested Add-On". I colored the images with my SU! markers, added polka dots to the bikini. sparkly lines to the flip flops, and even doodled around the circles on this card (which I never do!!). The white circles are put on with dimensionals to give some "pop".

I did make one other card but it was for my "Guest Designer" spot with Paper Pretties so I can't show you yet . . .check back at the end of the month, or if you are a member check out the Member's Only Gallery!

Thanks for visiting, I hope you enjoy your weekend!
