Papillon Potpourri - Happy Birthday

Happy Monday,

It's the start of a new week and I have been busy playing with the much anticipated Papillon Potpourri stamp set and matching punch :)  This stamp set has proven to be really popular and it's been out of stock for what seems like an eternity!  Anyway, here's what I made using one of the soon to be retired colours: Bashful Blue.  Inspiration was taken from this card.

Ornament Keepsakes

Hi all,

With a great promotion for November, I just had to give in to buying the Ornament Keepsakes Bundle!  I love the ornament on the front cover of the Autumn/Winter Catalogue and just knew I had to make one.  Recently cranked up the Big Shot (alot) and reproduced the ornament, which I'm really pleased with.  The picture doesn't do it justice, but believe me, there's lots of Dazzling Diamonds on there!

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler and Gumball Green (In Color 2012-14).  DSP - Be Of Good Cheer (P164).
