Hodgepodge Hardware

Hello Stampers!


Today I am very excited to share with you two cards that are Georgia Original Designs!!! I'm always so excited to show you projects, but I'm always more excited when it's a card or project I designed myself.


I have 2 versions of the cards to show you today.


The picture above was my original card. I used Regal Rose, Very Vanilla and Pink Pirouette Card Stock. I also used a piece from the Styled Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware that is part of the Inventory Blowout until January 18th. Please note that Stampin' Up! has limited quantities at the reduced price of $22.49, so you'll want to order yours before it's to late. You can shop online at: http://www.georgiacaulkins.stampinup.net/ and see the whole Inventory Blowout list under the specials.

The stamps sets I used are Upsy Daisy and Warm Words.


When I started to cut card stock for my card club, which was last night, I realized I didn't have enough of the Regal Rose Card Stock. :o( Above is the card that I altered to make it work with the supplies I had on hand. As you can see the card stock is now Pink Pirouette and Very Vanilla. I still stamped in Regal Rose, because I liked the color.

Which card do you like better?

Besides a card swap today I have exciting news to share with you. Right now Stampin' Up! is holding a leadership event in Florida. I wish I was there, and I could tell you this information first hand, but I still want to share a few things. Please note that I have not received an official notification from Stampin' Up! about anything listed below so the information may not be 100% accurate. As soon as I get updates I'll pass them along.

If you would NOT like to learn more about what is in the future for Stampin' Up! as well as information relating to the new catalog, which will be released on January 19th, please stop reading! Otherwise, please read on and leave me a comment. I'd love to hear what you think!



Last Chance. . . if you do not want to know about new Stampin' Up! products.. do not read on...

And I know you're dying to see the new book . . right? I know I'm stalking my UPS driver for my copy. Ok. . .here's what the new books look like. Please note that only demos who attended leadership received a spiral copy. In the past I've went to Staples and had them bind my catalog. I think it was around $6, but you should double check if you want to have it done.

Thanks for stopping and have a GREAT day!
