I made these a few days ago, I just forgot to post them. I'm a bad blogger. I don't update enough =).
I made this card for my husbands grandma (still haven't mailed it).
-Stamps-Doodle This and Polka Dots & Paisley.
-Ink-Chocolate Chip, So Saffron and Whisper White Craft ink.
-Paper-Rose Red, So Saffron and Chocolate Chip cardstock. So Saffron prints designer series paper.
-Accessories-Chocolate Chip 1/4" grosgrain(retired), white Signo gel pen and Watercolor Wonder Crayons.
This one I'm not too crazy about, but I was trying to make myself use Looks Like Spring, which I rarely pick up anymore. I don't think the So Saffron or the Regal Rose fit in with the Rose Red and Old Olive. The layout of this card was a CASE from page 41 in the new catalog. The ideas in there are soooo much better this year!
-Stamps-Looks Like Spring and Artfully Asian
-Ink-Rose Red, Old Olive and Regal Rose
-Paper-Rose Red and Old Olive cardstock. Rose Red and So Saffron Prints designer series paper.
-Accessories-Spring Bouquet punch, pewter Hodgepodge hardware, Rose and Chocolate chip 1/4" grosgrain (both retired), light pink gingham ribbon, and clear rhinestone brad.
The scalloped circle on this card was made using the corner rounder punch. You can see a tutorial for that HERE. The layout was a CASE from Jeanne S on SCS. You can see her card HERE.
-Stamps-Wild About You, Polka Dots & Paisley
-Ink-More Mustard, Certainly Celery, So Saffron, Basic Black, Bashful Blue and Ruby Red.

Altered clipboard
Here is an altered clipboard I just finished. I think I liked it better before I decorated the top. I think it's a little bit over done or something. I don't know, maybe it would have looked better if I used the same paper I used on the rest of the clipboard. Sorry, lately my blog seems like it's mainly Doodle This. I just can't get enough of it! I'm kinda tired of most of my other sets. I think I need to trade some of the on Splitcoast.
-Stamps-Doodle this
-Ink-Chocolate Chip
-Paper-Rose Red, So saffron designer Prints paper and Chocolate Chip cardstock
-Accessories-Clear Rhinestone brads, Watercolor crayons, aqua painter, blender pen, Rose grosgrain (retired), Chocolate grosgrain (retired), and Apricot grosgrain. For the grosgrain ribbon that is retired, you can just get the white ribbon dye your own. Check out THIS awesome tutorial by AmyR.

Doodle This
Well as promised, here are some non-Christmas cards. =). All three of them used Doodle this, and Polka dots & Paisley(both from the Spring Mini Catalog). I just recently got Doodle This. This has got to be my favorite set I've ever used. The possibilities are just endless, and it's so great for watercoloring with Stampin' Up's Watercolor Wonder Crayons with an aqua painter.The colors on this card are So Saffron, Rose Red, and Chocolate Chip. The image was stamped in Staz-on black ink, and colored in using the Rich Regals Watercolor crayons with an aqua painter. The edges were sponged using creamy caramel. I also used a piece of Apricot grosgrain ribbon.
On this card I used Basic Black cardstock, and Glossy White cardstock. Images were stamped with Staz-on, then colored in with Stampin' Write markers. Colors used are Rose Red, So Saffron and Mellow Moss. Edges were sponged with Bashful Blue.
The cardstock used here is Rose Red, and Whisper White. The flowers were colored with Watercolor crayons and an aqua painter. The flowers were colored in with Regal Rose, then shaded with Rose Red, the centers are So saffron. The vines are mellow moss. Edges sponged with Creamy Caramel.
All items used for these projects can be found in the Stampin' Up! Spring Mini Catalog, or in the 2006-2007 Idea Book & Catalog.
