Hi All,
Stampin’ Up! just released the new Summer Mini catalog. You can view the catalog HERE or shop the products HERE. Anyway, FINALLY, Stampin’ Up! has created embossing powders to match some of the colors – yeah!! Ok, so only 3 colors are available… but it’s a start! I used Melon Mambo and Wild Wasabi on this card (you can also get Tangerine Tango). I decided to emboss on vellum just for something different.
I created the border around the card by just stamping a circle over and over. I used the circle from the Build-a-Blossom set, but you could use pretty much any circle. I varied the placement of the circle so that it wouldn’t look like one stamp – I want the recipient of this card to know that I hand-stamped every single circle!!
Also – Stampin’ Up! has 30% off some select scrapbooking stamps to celebrate National Scrapbooking Month! You can check them out HERE. For some reason, the discount doesn’t show up until the stamp set is in your shopping cart.
Enjoy the video and Happy Mother’s Day!

Thanks for visiting my video blog! I post a new video every Wednesday and sometimes an extra when I have time.
Love the videos, especially since they are speeded up! Fun and funny. Good ideas, too. I love your circle border! I gotta try that!
I absolutely love the clean & simple look of the card. Love the new embossing colors.

Great card…loved what you did to the tag! And the way you created the border is genius.
I love it!! Great job woman!!! I have never used vellum, but I will now!!
I’ve never used vellum before because I really didn’t know how; this is awesome!! Thanks so much for the great ideas. Your card is really beautiful!
My favorite part is the border you created. I hope you don’t mind that I will case it with credit given of course.
Your style is so awesome and your teaching is so easy to follow. Thank you for all the inspiration. This set is so versatile and fun to work with. I will be using lots of your techniques.
Howdy would you mind letting me know which webhost you’re working with? I’ve loaded your blog in 3 different browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most. Can you suggest a good web hosting provider at a fair price? Thank you, I appreciate it!
