Bella Rose

Still can't figure out why some images go in sideways. I even saved this picture sideways to see if it would flip it right... Anyone know how to fix this?

I love the layout of this card. It is so simple and quick. This was cased by Susan on SCS.

Stamps: Absolutely Fabulous

Ink: Riding Hood Red

Paper: Pink Pirouette, Bella Rose DSP

Accessories: Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon and Build A Brad

Inspired By Nature

I wanted to start using some of the sets that we got at convention. We will be doing a class in August using the Bella Rose Designer Paper and this set so I wanted to make a card using this set as well. I first inked up the stamp in Summer Sun and then used sponge daubers to add the other colors.

Stamps: Inspired By Nature
Ink: Summer Sun, Old Olive, Kiwi Kiss, Chocolate Chip, Tangerine Tango
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White
Accessories: Old Olive Twill - which I would switch out once my new catty order arrives :)

Bella Rose Bottle

This cute bottle was made by Sara. I was in a 3D swap at convention and this is what she made for the swap. I really love the new Bella Rose Paper.

Convention Make and Take

I just love this box. It uses many of the new things coming up in the new catalog. I really like the look of the ribbon gathered with the silver glitter lining.

Stamps: Wild About You, Short Order Alphabet (I think)
Paper: Tangerine Tango, Pacific Point, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White, Riding Hood Red
Ink: Pacific Point, Kiwi Kiss, So Saffron, Riding Hood Red
Accessories: Jumbo Eyelet, 1 1/4" Circle Punch, Sponges, Natural Hemp Twine

Yeah --- Top Sales !!!!!

So I was at a shoebox swap tonight and Ashley delivered me this way cute pail basket full of Stampin Up goodies. And I just love the vinyal lettering. I haven't paid too much attention to it until this convention and I can't wait to try it myself. Anyway the reason for the surprise gift basket is that I was number one in sales this year for her team :) WooHoo - Yay for me. Okay so I may be her recruit that has been under her the longest so the odds were in my favor :) But the real kudos goes to Ashley for her performance this year. She earned the incentive trip to Hawaii this next year and even more exciting - she in in Stampin Up Founders Club this upcoming year and gets to take a trip with Shelly and got this really great pink bag and she was Stampin Ups #10 Rising Star this year. Way to go Ashley for your Rockin Year!!! Now let's get stamping so we can fullful our new wish list...
