New stuff

Hi Everyone,
No card today. I just want to show you something that the UPS guy left me today. I received a treasure trove of Spellbinders products, and the reason is ...................................
I won a Spellbinders contest back in January. Spellbinders was doing their CHA reveals and I entered their contest every day during the reveals and WOW, I received an email from Spellbinders indicating I had won all the product that was revealed on day 6. Talk about thrilled, excited, and so happy. I was all those feelings and more.Click here to read the announcement on their blog that I was the winner of the day 6 array of new products . 

The win has a total of 8 items:

S4-342 Square Swatches,

E8-013Classic Decorative Inserts Five

S5-084 Girlie Grunge Labels

S5-087 Mix'd Media Playtime

S5-085 Mix'd Media Elements

S5-086 Bitty Blossoms

ES-002 Nobility

S4-362 Ribbon Buckles

And one more thing..... I worked a stamping/scrapbooking convention Fri. and Sat. in Michigan, and I picked up a product that caught my eye, Paper-Soft Color by Viva. 

Can't wait to try this out to see how this looks on my projects. There are 20 different colors and I had a hard time picking just one color. I wanted to make sure that I would like this before I bought more. So I went with the apricot shade.I played a little bit with this when I got home and I think I am really going to like this stuff, so, now, I will have to decide what colors to get that I will use the most. Oh, decisions, decisions, decisions.

Well, I have to go. I have to get my Wednesday post ready and my new Art Impressions stamps came in while I was gone so I have to get to those. Guess I will go thru those and see what I will use for Wednesday and then there are all those new Spellbinder things, whoa, so many fun things to go thru!!

Thanks for stopping in today, see you soon,

Hot Air Balloons

Hi Everyone

It's Barbara here with my last post for Just Imagine Crafts/Kreaxions. I have been on this fabulous design team for 1 year and the time has flown by. You know the old saying, "Time flies when you are having fun". I had a blast. Got to work with a whole host of fabulous tools. I love the Kreaxions punches,(they are the best), a great circle cutter,(you will have to try it to see what I mean!!) and other tools as well. I had the great opportunity to work with the sweetest and most talented group of ladies. I will miss everyone on their design team.

For my last post I have used punch 918 - curves. It reminds me of swirling winds, so I thought this was a perfect punch to use on this card.  Also used the circle cutter to cut the partial circles. The circle cutter gives a perfect cut every time. 

Well that is it for today. Thanks so much for stopping in today. I will see you soon.
