Another birdhouse card

This time I used Thoroughly Modern designer paper. I am expecting my pre-order today from SU and it should have some of the new designer paper for Valentines in it. Can't wait!

Vintage Vogue for Regional

Today's card features Vintage Vogue, Very Vintage wheel, and the new punch XL two step bird punch (which also punches the leafy branch). All will be in the new Occasions mini that begins on January 5th. The colors are one of my favorite combos: Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry. I punched the bird from Rich Razzleberry designer series paper. The ribbon is new too! The Occasions mini features 5/8" satin ribbon in nine different colors. It's really pretty and satiny.

Vintage Vogue set from the new occasions mini!

Where did December go? I have been stamping but I am sooooo sorry that I haven't been posting. I guess my New Year's Resolution will be to post more often. I do have several cards made to share this weekend and January's scrapbook project to show. I have been working on my swaps for Leadership and Regional in Phoenix next week. I pre-ordered the Vintage Vogue clear stamp set (which I just realized will be my FREE set at regional, oh well) and I have to tell you, I like the clear blocks. It is much easier to see where you are stamping! I think I will continue to go clear. The card I am sharing today is for the leadership swap. It features Basic Gray and Pretty in Pink. I also used the Very Vintage coordinating wheel. The Occasions mini features a new style of punches. I used the scalloped trim punch on this card. I'll post my regional swap tomorrow.
