We all get so excited when we see the new products in the catalog but one of things that I get really excited about is the beautiful artwork in the catalog. I love thumbing through it to find projects that I want to re-create. I was having a hard time coming up with a card to make Brandon for his birthday. I do not have many "boy" sets on hand so I was really racking my brain. I went to the new catalog and found a card that I thought would be boyish enough and use a few new products too- SCORE.
I used the Forever Young stamp set. Honestly, this stamp set hasn't seen a lot of ink and after making this card I'm sad it's been neglected. For this card I used a few new In Colors such as Midnight Muse and Summer Starfruit. I love that the First Edition DSP is sticking around. I could kiss the person that made that decision. I love that paper and use it on just about everything. 🙂 The little button at the top of the frame is from our New Naturals Designer Buttons. Love that they are neutral and you can use them on anything. Even a manly card. The stitched ribbon is also a new product. These will come in our new beautiful In Colors. They won't disappoint you. I stamped the bottom greeting using my Fabulous Phrases stamp set and the only reason I did it like that at the bottom with another piece of cardstock is because I screwed up. Yes, totally messed it up but I recovered it. SCORE!
The one thing you are going to be excited about with our new catalog coming soon… the change in our ink pads. They are incredible. I can't wait to show you the MANY reasons I love them. If you have ever tried an Ancient Page Ink Pad—–> That's what our new pads remind me of. Just pure incredible.
Most importantly Brandon liked his card. Alexis wanted to know how I got his picture in the frame. LOL. Silly kids. I want to thank you for taking the time to wish Brandon a happy birthday. He loved it and he really had a GREAT day.
You are amazing readers and I appreciate you SO SO SO SO much. Thank you.
XOXOXOXO

Love this card Kimberly. It is perfect for Brandon & does look just like him. Alexis asked a smart question. I would think she'd thought you'd used your MDS, hee, hee! I have been using this set for my Mother's Day Cards.
