Snow Swirled Stamping 411 SSC228

It's been a busy fall at school so although I have been stamping like crazy to get ready for craft shows, I haven't had much time to post on my blog.  So, with a few extra minutes in my day, I decided to show you what I have been up to.  I'll start with a card I did for a trade ealier this week using the inspiration from Stamping 411 and then move on to the craft show pictures.

 

Stamp Set: Snow Swirled

Cards Stock:  Night of Navy, Bashful Blue DSP

Ink:  Versamark

Accessories:  White embossing powder, scallop oval punch, Basic Rhinestones, white organza ribbon, snowburst embossing folder

Now, on to some posts from a craft show a fellow demonstrator and I did last weekend.  We got lots ideas from around the web, so if you see one of you great ideas, let me say thank you in advance.  Most of our stuff was a hit with the shoppers!

Upsy Daisy with New In-Colors for Stamping 411 Saturday Sketch Challenge 210

I'm back from a wonderful July 4th weekend and wanted to share another card with you using the 2011-1013 In-Colors that were just released from Stampin' Up!  I used them for the first time in my previous post, and I couldn't wait to try them again.  I am submitting this card for the Stamping 411 Saturday Sketch Challenge 210.  This card uses the Upsy Daisy stamp set that has been around for a while, but I love how it lends itself to featuring multiple colors and the use of markers.  The specifics for this card are listed below:

Card Stock:  Calypso Coral (8 1/2 x 5 1/2 and 3 1/2 x 3), Whisper White (4 x 5 1/4 and 3 1/4 x 2 3/4), Wisteria Wonder (5 1/4 x 1 1/2), Pool Party (5 1/4 x 1 1/2)
