This week I discovered Creative Scrappers.   Their sketches seem to be right up my alley. This is last weeks sketch:

Stampin' Up Cards using mini-occasions & Sale-A-Brations Items

These first batch of cards are thank you cards created for all my customers.  These cheery cards are  for each order I have received and delivered.
I used Sahara Sand Cardstock for the base, pacific point cardstock and ice cream parlor patterned paper and quick accents.  The ice cream parlor pp and quick accents (yellow flower sticker) is one item from Sale-a-bration catalog. The ribbon and small buttons are a 2nd item in the Sale-a-bration catalog.  I also included a big button from the Spring Mini-Occasions Catalog.  The Thank you stamp is from Curly Cute set in the big catalogue.
My next set of cards were created for a co-workers birthday this week:
I forgot to take a picture of the inside, it is a gift card holder.
I love the new Take A Spin stamp set currently being sold in the mini occasions catalog.  There are 4 stamps.  I used tempting turquoise cardstock base with red real red and tangerine tango. 



 This card was created using some old scrap papers I had left from Imaginise's Birthday line.  I used the create a cupcake stamp with coordinating punch..  It is too stinkin' cute!
