Upsy Daisy

I had to play with my new toys! I received this stamp set and the die cut in my last Stampin' Up order. I've been drooling over the Upsy Daisy set now for quite a while but didn't want to spend the money. Especially since I have other flower sets...but I don't have many (any?) nice siloutte stamps.



Isn't it a gorgeous stamp? I'm a little disappointed in my first card. For once...the picture looks better than the card in real life. I think it would have been better with black and red instead of brown and red. Oh well...live and learn (and then get Luvs! :-)) The basic layout is this week's sketch challenge over on Splitcoast.

I have two more cards to share in the days to come (another new stamp set and a digital image). Sorry I've been slacking a bit. I'm not sure it's going to get much better in the near future. This weekend is pretty muchly booked with a bridal shower and a "quilting date"...so probably no card making.

Have a great rest of the week!

I think this is so STUNNING Jane!! Really!! I love those black silouette flowers. Ya know, I've got lots of flower stamps, but they are all color-in ones...no silouette stamps :( Hmmm, loving this one though. Might have to invest in some.

LOVE LOVE LOVE that Top Note die though--adds so much class on a card. :)
(so glad you got your swap box too--I tried to find all my animal stamps to send you images of and I know I still have more. If you ever want images of anything on my blog, I'd be more than happy to send you more images okay?) xXx
