Colour Challenge #7

It has been far to long since I've posted a colour challenge and I noticed that I had skipped challenge #7. I did make a card with this colour challenge but never posted it. So I will show that card but also my new card.

Today's colour challenge is: Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, So Saffron

This Happy Birthday card was made using the Bliss stamp set which is no longer available.

I made this card using one of the new Hostess sets. One thing I love about Stampin' Up! is they come up with new ways of giving us free products. If you are familiar with the hostess program we provide then you will know that it has changed. Before July 1st, we had hostess levels which if you sell a certain amount of products you could get one item from the hostess level that you achieved. Now, you earn hostess dollars and all hostess sets are easy to achieve. For selling $200 in products, before taxes and shipping, you earn $35 in hostess dollars. With that you can get 2 stamp sets just for being a hostess!! Isn't that just GREAT!?!?

Now on to today's card list.

Supplies
Stamp Set: Precious Butterflies *Hostess set 122515W & 122517C
Card Stock: Pear Pizzazz -5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 & circle; So Saffron 5 1/4 x 4 & border; Poppy Parade 5 x 3 3/4; Whisper White 4 3/4 x 2 & circle
Ink: Classic Stampin' Pad -Pear Pizzazz 119784, Poppy Parade 119782, So Saffron 105213
Other Supplies: 1 1/4" Circle 119861; 1 3/8" Circle 119601; Lace Ribbon Border 122362; Victoria Crochet Trim 118481; Dimensionals 104430

GREAT JOB SHELBY!!!! :)

Here are some special gifts made for our super special teacher and all the great friends Shelby made in JK.

Here is the card made for Shelby's teacher! The stamp sets I used for this card are both retired but I just love both these sets and won't let them go. The are First Day and Tart & Tangy. However, the Thank You stamp is not retired and from the Curly Cute stamp set.

This little desk is so adorable!!! I found this desk on Stampin Queen's blog. I just loved these desk when I saw them, I had to make one for Shelby's teacher. This is the front view. Below are the top and drawer view. The great thing about this desk is that it was easy to make. All the drawers are filled with goodies for the teacher such as paper clips, thumbtacks, Liquid paper dry lines and chocolate.

The drawers are made using the Big Shot and the Matchbox die.  

These Sour Cream Containers are the gifts for Shelby's new friends. These are super fun, quick and easy to make. Each package had a little treat for the children to enjoy.
