Hey girlies! Here's card #4 of the group I made the week before the Stampin' Up! Retirement list was due to come out. I had a hunch this set (Fun and Fast Notes) would retire, and I wanted to get some more use from it, before it did! Its a super fast, super easy card, and from June 27-30, you'll see variations of this CAS layout. All I did was ink up a background stamp, lay down a sticky note where I wanted to mask the area, stamp the background. Then in the left over space, stamped the images with Staz-On and then went from there. Super fun, super fast!

Ingredients: (All SU!)
Fun and Fast Notes, Polka Dot Background Stamp, Whisper White CS, Black Staz-On Ink, Aqua Painter, Regal Rose Classic Ink, Chocolate Chip Classic Ink, Baja Breeze Stampin' Write, So Saffron Stampin' Write.

Fundraiser for Chaz

Hi all! I participated in a fundraiser a few weeks back, and these are the tags we made. $2 from the sale of each Tag Alongs Stamp Set was donated by Stampin' Up! to Ronald McDonald House Charities, and my full commission on all orders taken for this event were donated to a local family who spent a long time this year having to live in a Ronald McDonald house in Hamilton, Ontario. Thankfully, their little boy continues to work towards a full recovery, and has returned home now.

I won't post ingredients, as I CASEd the tags from the current Stampin' Up! Catty, only changing colors, a few punches, and layers to suit what I had in my stash. One thing I WILL tell you, is that I was so pleased to be able to fund raise this way, my brain is already clicking on ways to use the new Turtle & Co. Set being released July 1st, and this time SU! is donating $3 of the purchase of each stamp set to the Ronald McDonald House Charities!!!
