***This is my second post for the day!  Be sure to scroll down so you don’t miss out on my project for today!***

The Retiring Lists come out on Monday…SO, before then…

A CONTEST complete with a PRIZE!!!
Go through the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog (HERE it is online if you don’t have a hard copy.  Or click HERE to download it.) and pick out 10 stamp sets you think will retire. Email that list to me by Sunday, April 20th at 6 pmCentral Time.
The winner will receive $30 in FREE product of their choice! If there’s a tie, the first person who sent their list to me will be the winner.
I will announce the winner on Monday in the email I will send out to share the retiring lists with you.
To Be Eligible:
-You must be a current customer (have placed an order with me in the past 12 months).
-Email your list to me at Sarah@SarahLovesToStamp.com (please use ‘Contest’ in the subject line).
-List must include only 10 stamp sets from the 2013-2014 Annual Catalog (do not include Occasions Catalog stamps or online only stamps)
-Late entries will not be accepted.
Finally, if the Retiring Stamps are revealed early, only the entries that were received before the release will count.  (I’m not expecting this but it’s only fair to those who got their entries in before the list was announced.)

Hi there!

Combining my Design Team project from the As You See It Challenge today with a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches and the color combo from Dynamic Duos (last week’s) has resulted in the card you see above.

Come on over to the As You See It Challenge and play along with us this week!  We’re switching it up with theme week this week…anything ANIMALS! 🙂  I chose to use this super cute bunny from the adorable Baby, We’ve Grown stamp set from the Occasions Catalog!  Love this little guy!

AYSI-Challenge-033

I got a little excited about this sketch and made a whole bunch of these cards in different color combos.  I also filmed a video for you on how to watercolor.  The sentiments on all 4 cards are different, showing how versatile this little image can be.  The main card above says “Happy Easter,” whereas the other 3 cards are baby themed with “for your shower,” “hello, baby,” and “thank you.”  Think of what a great gift a set of the “thank you” ones would be for a new mom!

I also showed some variety in the backgrounds.  One is Designer Series Paper, one is dry embossed cardstock and the other two are (surprise, surprise) my favorite, Core’dinations cardstock!!! (Seriously, can I even make a project without it?)

I’ll be back with the video as well as the How To and Supply List soon!
