Stampin’ Girls Gone Wild

Posted on May 29, 2013May 29, 2013 by Josee

Hey! It’s Wednesday!!! That means it’s time for STAMPIN’ GIRLS GONE WILD!! Connie and I would like to apologize for being a little hit and miss these last month. With the loss of my Mom and a tornado hitting Connie's hometown, it’s been a wild month for both of us. Thank you for your patience with us! One of the many things that Connie and I love about being Stampin’ Up demonstrators is the flexibility we have. When”life happens”, we know that we can take a step back. Thank you all so much for sticking with us!!!

This week is Connie's turn….are you ready for her beautiful project?!

I have been itching to share this technique with you! A fellow demonstrator, Margaret Raburn, was at my house a couple of weeks ago and shared this technique with me. It’s amazing! I have to warn you though – IT’S ADDICTING!!! Once you try it, you will KEEP GOING! The laundry won’t get done, you’ll have to eat out for a week because you won’t want to cook, you’ll just want to keep on stamping. You have been warned!

I love the soft tones of this card and of course, some great dimension! So Saffron, Pool Party, and Wisteria Wonder are just beautiful together!

Here’s the inside (no card should be naked inside)

And while I was at it, I made a masculine version too. Notice that I used the postage stamps to cover up the flower on the background? Everything else looked masculine except that. What’s a stamper to do? Cover it up!

Ready for the video?!

I hope you are inspired! Now, go clear your calendar and start creating!! 🙂
