I'm playing catch-up. I've been wanting to post the card I made for the annual SU! Demonstrator shoebox swap my up-line and sister (Debbie Naylor) hosts each year. I love these events and usually stress over what to make. This year, I knew the color combo I'd use as soon as SU! announced the new In Colors. I've been in love with mint green since my middle school days. Oh, how happy I was to see Pistachio Pudding! It isn't quite my Mint Melody (retired long ago), but close enough! I have been seeing a lot of Mint/Navy clothes combos on Pinterest this year and knew a mint color would be coming. So, I had my colors set in my mind. Then, this awesome mosaic stamp set and matching punch and embossing folder came out. That was it - LOVE! So, this is the card I came up with.
While I was cutting out pieces for the swap, I looked up and saw the Crisp Cantaloupe ink pad. What a pretty color too! Well, I thought, why not try the card in this color too. I liked it! So, I put both colors in the shoebox and let the others choose which color they wanted to make. Here's a picture my sister took of me with my cards.
Here's a group picture. To read more about the day and to see what all of my fellow stampin' demonstrators made, please

Thanks for looking and have a great day!
