Only a few days to go until the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue goes live, with all the new goodies. And believe me, there are lots of gorgeous goodies in this one!
In the meantime, I am going to be sharing some cards using a few of the retiring ones, and today I enjoyed some carfty time making these cards with the Sheet Music background stamp.
As a musician, I love this stamp, it is real music, not just random notes, and it is so gorgeous for cards and scrapbook layouts, so I am personally sad to see this one retiring.
It will be one that stays in my personal stash though.
Here are the individual cards….
And then I decided to go with some colour, and chose my favourite, Highland Heather.
The gorgeous butterfly is fussy cut from some retired Designer Series Papers, but they are too special to give away, so I am still using them.
I am going to share my cards to some card Challenges:
Global Design Project – Birds, Bees and Butterflies
Stampin’ Up! Only Challenges – Masculine Project
CAS Colours and Sketches – Sketch Challenge with a focus on the sentiment
Fusion Card Challenge – Sketch Challenge
TGIF Challenges – Make a Set of Cards
I hope you are having a crafty weekend.
Happy Stamping!

Chris, your cards are so beautiful! I love the story about why the sheet music stamp is so meaningful to you, as well as your clean and simple designs. The butterfly card is my personal favorite. Thank you so much for joining TGIF Challenges this week!
