JUST FOR YOU AND RETIREMENT CARD

 Welcome,
My order arrived yesterday, but I was too exhausted to play with it, and so you know the level of exhaustion had to be high for a gal not to get our her new stamps.  haha
Any ways Here is my first card using my new stamp set.  I probably should have stamped the sentiment on the side a bitter closer to the edge, but as I like to say about my many mistakes.. "it's homemade not hallmark"  

My second card features the new embossing folder from stampin up.  I just loved it.  I think my kids will like it too.  I'm not quite sure how to use it to the full potential I know it has, I might have to go check out pinterest for some ideas.. but I think it worked well for today's card with the ship.  The sentiment I thought was just a nice little way of saying relax, take it easy, tour the world.  which tied in well with the embossing folder.

Thank you for stopping by my blog.

Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping☺

  1. Two lovely card PJ. My goodness you must have been tired not to play with your new stuff yesterday!. The embossing folder is lovely and works really well with the image. The blue looks like the colour of the ocean too. Youl find lots of exciting things to do with your embossing folder. Try embossing with core card then gently rub the raised bits. This is a lovely effect. Barbxx
