 We have lots of new stamps in the store.  The Hero Arts reorder is here.   Hopefully, we ordered enough of the Newsprint Tulip.

We have had a great response to our Dare to Share Challenge.  We always knew that our customers were creative and now we get to show off some of their great work.  First up is Vanessa. Many of you have met her on Demo Day and have seen first hand her fun projects.  I like how she used the French Pastry Doily Die for the base of the design and coiled up the rick rack to mimic a flower. 

 

Gigi used border punches and pop dots to give her card some great depth.

Debra D. added a fun cupid's arrow and a bit of bling to her card.

Maria F. combined the challenge items with a fun Valentine paper.

Marsha D. added some hearts, nice music paper and stickles.  Everything is better with Stickles.

Paulette T. thought outside the card and created a pretty candle holder.  The Memory Box flourish die was a fun piece to layer with the hearts.  I love how she covered the heart with the ric rack.  Very Creative.


Trish B. added some buttons for shine and texture.

Laura added some great tone on tone stamping, faux stiches and pearls for her elegant card.

Copic Spotlight - Creating Texture   Fee $24

 
 With Valentine's being our Design Team theme this month, I had to think in a more broad sense because I don't usually take pictures for Valentine's Day. I immediately thought of the new love in our family -- our puppy! So, I did a layout I just "love" with my hubby and our new puppy back in the Spring. I designed the layout with the whole thing on the diagonal just to create a different look and to keep your eye moving across the page.

 

 

For my base I used my new favorite cardstock color: DARK KRAFT! It complemented my puppy's fur color so he stood out in the pix. Then I used a Fancy Pants Love papers combined with Jillibean Soup embellies. It's so much fun to mix and match. My title "Puppy Love" is an old Jolee's from my stash.

  

Have you ever used a themed product collection for something a little different? Share it with us! We love to see your work too!!
