Blendability Markers from Stampin' Up!

Blend-abilities!
Coming Soon!

While at leadership we learned about an Awesome new Product line, Blendabilities Markers.  They are similar to the copic brand.  They will be sold in 12 basic colors (3 of each –lite, medium, dark).  Each set of 3 will sell for only $11.95 WOWZA!  What a Bargain!!  There will also be an eraser marker, I don’t remember the official name, but it’s AWESOME! It will remove unwanted marker strokes!  So Cool!  There will also be a set of 5 markers in flesh tones.  Here’s a picture of the twelve colors blended. 



 I cannot wait to get my hands on a set of my own.  I played with them a little while at Leadership and boy are they fun and easy to use!



Here are a few pictures of the products, and samples and the new Memento black ink pad that is made specifically for the Blendability markers. These are not the best photos, but you get the idea, right?





I will let you know as soon as they are available for purchase.

Giggle Greetings, Stamp Of The Month

Giggle Greetings

I have to admit it, I did not want to use this stamp set.  Yes, it is very, very cute.  But I was sure I couldn't do a lot of different things with, not enough to keep up the standards the club members would expect from me.  But they said they believed in me....LOL...so I gave it my best shot.  Now, I am thrilled that I did it.  I love these cards and hope you will too!


This card has Whisper White card stock inside.  
The cherries were colored with markers &
blender pens and then covered with Crystal Effects.
The bowl was stamped onto Summer Starfruit &
cut out (the stripe was done with the Cherry
Cobbler Stampin' Write Marker.

The inside of this card has the 'hair ball' and the rest
of the sentiment on the inside on Whisper
White card stock.  I know the cat looks a little
ill...that was my intention! LOL


This card uses the Decorative Dots Textured
Embossing folder from Sale-a-bration for the front
of the card, and the spotted paper is cut from the
Watercolor Wonder cards in the Celebrate The
Everyday catalog.  The dog is cut out and lifted
up using Stampin' Dimensionals on the body & Head.
See layer sample below


This card is made with 3 pieces of card stock to
create the flaps.  The block of cheese is cut from 
Crushed Curry card stock, the candle from 
Coastal Cabana.  I think this is my favorite!
