Tea Shoppe + some pleated Satin Ribbon by Stampin Up and me

Isn't this new Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper the cutest ever? It has this beautiful elegance and a hint of distressing. You can get a pack of 12 sheets of 12x12 inches for free during Stampin Up's Sale-A-Bration time. So from January 24th until March 31st 2012 you will get free products for every $60 that you spend. Love it!

I love using the clear blocks from Stampin Up.

Pool Party is for sure one of my favorite Stampin Up colours.

Here is one handy Scallop Circle SU punch

Hi dear everyone.

And then the day is almost over again. Our 2 oldest are swimming with my hubby at the moment and our youngest is reading some books in her room. Guess what I am doing at this hour :) You got that right.. I got myself some time to post the card I created today.
I loved using those cute little tea cups from the Tea Shoppe Stampin Up stamp set (#125547 - $33.95 for 10 of the cutest vintage stamps) It is now for sale through the NEW Occasions Mini Catalogue from Stampin Up. Which is available from January 4 - April 30 (Queens Day in Holland :) 2012.

I also enjoyed the dimension and flirty touch that my 3/8'' Blushing Bride pleated Satin Ribbon from Stampin Up gave to my card, without having to stitch or glue those cute little pleats! Love that ribbon (#125570 - $9.50 for 5 yards) So glad I didn't need to stitch those pleats myself. I snipped the length that I needed and it looked great.

  + the sweet Colour Queen Ladies had one beauty of a Challenge that I had to use for this card. They encouraged us in their 118th Challenge (!!!!!) to use the following colours: Cherry Cobbler, Pear Pizzazz, Cameo Coral, Cool Caribbean and white. Well.. the colours I picked are super close to the ones on their blog. I hope that's okay :) I love how it turned out. Thansk for the inspiration Colour Queens!

Well.. I have to bring our littlest one to bed now.. She is done for the day. But I am so glad I had some time to post today. I hope you will enjoy your evening.. Thanks for stopping by and as always I love your comments and little notes on my blog. I will for sure swing by yours if your comment is linked to your blog. Talk to you later!

Inky hugs, Pauline
