The weekend just flew by and I didn’t have a chance to do the Inspiration or the Featured Stamper challenge yet. I hope I can catch up during the week.
The stamp camp was fun. I think everyone enjoyed it. After the girls left, Rick and I went to go shopping for a new TV. With the new season starting up today, I wanted to have a TV in my stamp room. That way I can stamp and watch the shows!!!
Well….my man had the great plan to upgrade the TV we have in our bedroom (we can’t watch TV in our living room, the AC unit is right there and super loud…lets just say the living room isn’t being used much). I got the LCD TVfrom in there and we went shopping.
Well…after looking at LOTS of TV’s we finally came home with a 50″ Plasma TV from Panasonic. Let’s just say it’s SWEET!
After we got home I prestamped the leftover card kits from Stamp camp. Then it was like 11 p.m. and I was pooped.
Sunday wasn’t much better. I packed up the card kits, worked on SCS emails and newsletter and then made a dozen of these cards. I did make a scrapbook page with the WSC20 layout later yesterday afternoon. I will share that one next Sunday.
I don’t know why, but when I make 3″x3″ cards, I seem to always go back to this layout.
I used the Darling Doodles Designer paper. I recently ordered it and I LOVE the color combo in there.
The card base is a 3″ x 6″ piece of textured Purely Pomegranate cardstock folded in half.
The designer paper measures 1 1/2″ x 2 7/8″ and has the bottom two corners ticket corner punched.
Wild Wasabi double stitched ribbon is rapped around it.
The butterfly from Just like you is stamped in Groovy Guava on Whisper White ink, punched out with a 1 1/4″ circle punch and layered first on a 1 3/8″ Wild Wasabi circle, then on a basic black scallop circle. It was adhered with dimensionals. A little Dazzling Diamond glitter was added with the glue pen.
Last I stamped the Thank you from All Holidays on the bottom right corner.

It’s ok to go with the same layout every time because they are really cute!
I won’t say anything to my husband about your TV. : ) We still have a little 24 incher from forever ago and he wants a new one REALLY bad.
I LOVE your 3 x 3 card. I love your style. Very cute colors and I love that butterfly. SO FUN!
I love little 3×3 cards…and your’s is adorable! They’re great for getting mojo going.
How lucky are you to get a TV in your stamp room. I wish I had one, but no room and no hook up. 🙁
Wow girl you had a smokin’busy weekend! Awesome score on the TV! It’s on my husband wish list 😉 Maybe for Xmas!

Great cards! Super cute. Had to laugh at your TV story. We purchased a 50inch plasma TV in February so I know all about TV shopping.
Cute card. Your new TV must be sweet! We have a 50″ big screen, not plasma or HDTV ready & my hubby is always making little “side” comments that we need to upgrade! Have fun!
I LOVE 3×3 cards! This one is SO Cute! I use that lay-out a lot on 3x3s too, it must be the lack of size. This is another stamp set on my never-ending wish list. 🙂
Great 3×3’s!! I love the colors! Your going to love that t.v!! Our living room is so small that if we got one of those we’d have to blow a hole in our wall and stand outside just to focus, lol!!!
Hugs, Rhonda
I tend to have a layout I like the look of best for my 4×4 cards. I know the feeling. Sometimes any other layout just doesn’t feel right. 🙂
Well, I was getting ready to say “You slacker!” when I read you hadn’t done the Featured Stamper or Inspiration Challenges yet! lol! But then I read everything you DID do! Man! I was just waiting to read that you had wallpapered the living room and solved the world hunger problem! *wink* I don’t know how you get SOOOOO much done, you really are my “get ‘er done” hero! Hugs, Angie
p.s. I would write more, but I need to get back to my 21″ tv that my husband’s co-worker dug out of his garage and gave to us! (not jealous at all…)
Such a completely darling card, Beate!
Now about this 50″ plasma TV … does DH even “need” a living room now? hahaha
