Worlds Greatest!

Are you completely immersed into the Olympics as I am? Talk about a HUGE distraction to my creative time.  It's so incredible to hear and see every athlete and their stories. I love it all but I'm obsessed with swimming and gymnastics.  I've kept my TV on while creating and I'm finding my cards are coming out crooked because I'm not focusing.  NOT good.  I guess I'm lucky this only happens every 4 years. <smile>

Lots of great news coming from Stampin' Up!  We have an amazing Recruiting special you will want to check out.  It's only $99 to get started and the best part is that you can customize your kit YOURSELF by choosing $125 in retail merchandise.  It's very exciting.  Check out more details HERE. I would love to have you become a part of my team.  

You will also see the fantastic MDS 31 days of savings special on my promotions page.  WOW! Take advantage of this amazing deal. 

Speaking of MDS… Tuesday means NEW downloads.  You can see them HERE. 

I've been playing with MDS 2 and there are so many great changes to this already awesome program.  75 upgrades that I think you will be REALLY excited about.   For this layout I played with one of the new upgrades—-> Changing the color of embellishments.  YIPPIE.  You can see this on the staples that I used on this layout.  I colored them Tangerine Tango. Whoo Hoo!!  I also recolored my stitching. 

Here is the list of supplies I used on this layout: (P.S.-this is another upgrade that ROCKED my world.  I can easily find my supplies by the click of a button! Thank you Stampin' Up!)

You know I always love a set that is REALLY versatile.  The World's Greatest and You're Amazing stamp set are just that.  We all know of people that we think are amazing or the GREATEST so why not show them with a hand stamped card? I also used the Family Reunion stamp set to make them more personal.  I figured my husband needed a card from me ans I think he's the GREATEST.  Below you will find the products that I used on this card.
