TROPICAL PARTY!



I made a little time to play with some of the goodies I treated myself to from the Summer Mini Catalog! I love being a demonstrator when those minis come out because we get to preorder and play with some things before they're available to our customers. Of course, this helps me to plan workshops and clubs and classes where I can highlight all of the latest and greatest products.

Here are my first creations with the Tropical Party stamp set and the Island Oasis Designer Series Paper. I often start off making one card and then don't really like it, so I make a few minor changes and see if I like that one better... so goes my creative process.

For the card with the ribbon that was stamped with Rose Red, I added some crystal effects to the drink and straw. For the Pumpkin Pie card with the flowers, I added crystal effects to the straw and then added crystal effects to the 'rim' of the drink and sprinkled some Dazzling Diamonds Glitter on that.

I am looking forward to more play time soon, and will definitely share what I come up with!
