Love this snail
I loved Garden Whimsy and the matching Jumbo Whimsy ever since I first layed eyed on it in the catalog. Of course it was on my first order. I had to have it!
I started out with a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Always Artichoke cardstock folded in h alf. I punched the two bottom corners of my 2″ x 4″ piece of Groovy Guava cardstock with the ticket corner punch and wheeled it with white cardstock and the Jumbo Rough Around The Edges Wheel.
Since my freaking scallop circle punch gave out on me yesterday, I reverted back to using my Marvy Uchida scallop circle punch. It’s a bit bigger then the one from Stampin’ Up!. I stamped the cute, cute snail with Chocolate Chip classic ink on Shimmery White (is there any other white cardstock?) and punched it out with the 1 3/8″ circle punch. Next I cut a layer of River Rock cardstock with my coluzzle.
River Rock Double Stitched Ribbon finishes this quick card off. I have to say I like how it turned out. I will have to use that color combo again. I love this saying! So perfect to send a card to good friends!
Forgot to mention: The paper pierced trail of the snail is made with the Priceless Classy Brass. I had to have it and it’s wonderful for the paper piercing guides alone!
What a cute card! I absolutely love the color combo- adding it to my inspiration notebook! Can’t wait ’til Friday! That set should be at my door around 2:00.
oh you lucky girl….love that garden whimsy set! Can’t wait to see you play with all your goodies!
i love this card! I love your white wheeled background and the ribbon finishes everything off so nicely. Great job!
Adorable card. I must say the new catalog finally pushed me over the edge on finally ordering the jumbo wheels. I’ve held out so long, but they are just too cool to go any longer without! LOL!
Love it!! This is my fav set from the new catty!! :0)
Cute card Beate! I havn’t ordered this set yet but it is on my LONG list of stamps to get! I love the double stiched grosgrain ribbon! I love how this card turned out!
Oh, I LOVE it! Now you’re gonna make me have to have the wheel!
Absolutely adorable!!!
This is so cute! I love this color combination! Awesome card!
So super cute! I love everything about this card from the colors to that sweet little snail!!
You and your snails — I knew you would get this set! AND I knew you would do something awesome with it!
i love how this one turned out!
I knew I was going to like this set and now you have sold me on it with your wonderful card!
Love it! I have this set too and hope to play tonight! I’m very jealous of your stamping time! I’m still working on mounting sets that I got Monday.
Hi Beate,
I’m a die-hard fan of yours. From colors to style you got it going on with card designing.
I know you are not crazy about Wild Wasabi, but I have to say it is one of my fave colors now. You should try it instead of the always artichoke. I think it will make the card a bit more lively.

You are always taking on challenges, challenge yourself to using Wild Wasabi tomorrow!
Very whimsical! I love how the little pierced part on the bottom panel matches the pattern at the top.
What a great color combo, and that little snail is too cute!!
I so shoulda ordered this set!!! This is fabulous in the new colors!! I love that river rock ribbon! Hmmm… maybe after 10 days in Virginia, I’ll have to put in another order?! LOL Oh! That’s bad! Please, though, keep posting cards with this set! Make me want it!
(Well, I do already want it, so I guess that’s not the point!)

Love your card!! I have that set on my wish list for my next order!!
This is SO cute!!! And darn if you’re not going to make me get this set. And the brass. AND the wheel!! Sheesh!
Hi there!
I love checking your blog and have been a fan of your tutorials on SCS for a couple years now.
Thanks for all you share!
So your brand new SU! scallop punch isn’t working already?? I was thrilled when I saw it in the IB&C and it’s on my first order - which is yet to arrive. Now I’m a bit worried!

Hi again, Beate. TAG!!!!
You inspire me everyday, and I must thank you for commenting on my blog. When I saw your comment I felt like a girl in high school when the coolest girl in school just said hello to me. Thanks for making my everyday visually and creativly pleasing!! No other way to say it…You rock my stamping world! Better get out my rough around the edges wheel.
Thanks again!
Lindsey
That was the first set I saw in the new catty that I HAD to have… tomorrow…tomorrow… thanks for your inspiration to get me ready!
