Fifthe Avenue Floral Frenzy

Can you tell this is my absolute favorite stamp set The Fifth Avenue Floral

and designer paper Urban Oasis

This card was inspired by my downline and good friend Vicky!


I saw this on one of my buddy's blog and for the life of me I can't remember which one...

This another crafty idea of Vicky's. She did hers in Raspberry Tart and

of course I had to do Urban Oasis.

I was hooked on RBT for so long I needed to try something new!!

These cards are 3 3/4 x 4 1/4. I put the top note on the front with a sentiment. Then on the back I added another top note where you can write a message. The envelopes will go on other side of the folder.

These are perfect to make with the gift notes on the under $10.00 page #208 in the back of the catalog! In April, we will have a special promo, for every $40.00 order you place you will receive a FREE item from that page.

This is the Sizzix Box #2 stamped with Fifth Avenue Floral with kiwi kiss, basic grey. and baha breeze inks. It looks just like the Designer paper in Urban Oasis!! I used the lots of tags sizzlits for the sentiment with the Thank you stamp also, from the under $10.00 page! It's only $ 5.95. WOW, what a great investment. I love those tag sizzlits. They are a must have so easy to make an impressive classy tag or focal point for any card or project. Great journaling tags for scrap pages as well. They are on page 201 only $21.95.

This card features the new Birthday set "On your Birthday" page 141 $33.95 with 12 stamps in the set, it covers about every bday sentiment you could want. Even one that says look who's turning ( ) you just put in the number for year. I also really like the two sided kiwi kiss satin ribbon, with vanilla satin on the back side accented with flower fusions 2 and our rhinestone brads. What did we ever do without all these beautiful new embellishments to choose from

yeah, don't answer that demonstrators!!

This is the pillow top box, made with the Bigz Sizzix die cut from page 197 for only $19.95.

Great for baby showers, bdays, bridal showers and weddings. I actually have couple using them for their wedding and putting in small starfish. too cute. They are having a beach wdding wait till you see the invitation I designed for them.

It is also so easy to punch the box and put acetate behind the punch

and you can see what is in the box.

Nice and simple. I love the sentiment if you can't read it, it says:

"Plant your feet firmly and let your heart have wings" from the stamp set

Hope Happens $19.95 page 135

I love this color combo, baha, pink pirk, and choc chip

with a little paper piercing around the outside edge. Easy peasy!!
Use the mat pack for the paper piercing $9.95 in the accessories section.

Well I am off to try to move onto another set. I really don't want to but I must!! I have all this NEW stuff to play with and being sick for three weeks and not being able to stamp almost killed me!! Can anyone recite Step One for me! Have we actually formed Stampaholics yet? Does anyone have a meeting schedule! LOL!
