You should have arrived here from <a href="http://www.luckydogstamper.com/" target="_blank">Linda's blog</a>. If not, why not start at the beginning with <a href="http://www.papernstamps.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Karen</a>? This month's theme is get well cards or cards of support and encouragement to tie in with A Muse's <a href="https://www.amusestudio.com/sarahcallahan" target="_blank">Stamp Out Breast Cancer</a> promotion. I have two cards to share with you today. For the first card, I featured A Muse's Sunny Side of Life stamp set and the Butterfly Trio dies. For the second card, I used Clean and Simple Stamping's sketch also featured in <a href="http://wastamper.blogspot.com/2012/10/october-blog-hop.html" target="_blank">the previous post</a>. For this card, I used flowers instead of butterflies.<br />

I have finally had a little time to create again. One of my new favorite products is A Muse Studio's Splash! It is a quick-drying spray ink with a fabulous matte finish. I used it here in Cherry for some bookmarks that I made as thank-yous for my customers. If you have ordered something from me lately and haven't gotten one - don't worry - it's in the mail (or will be soon:)). This project was inspired by a very similar one made by my friend Su. I used the Nevermore set by A Muse. It includes a background stamp perfectly sized for bookmarks imprinted with passages from <i>The Raven</i> as well as the clock and raven shown below. Both bookmarks actually used Vanilla paper, but were photographed in different lighting conditions. </span><br />

Today I am joining some fellow consultants in sharing brand new items from A Muse Studio's 2012 catalog, which you can peruse <a href="https://www.securedcontent.net/amuse/pdfs/2012AMuseStudioCatalog.pdf">here</a> or by clicking the picture on the right. You should have arrived here from <a href="http://ritaholmes.blogspot.com/">Rita's blog</a>. If not, please go back to the beginning of the hop at <a href="http://www.papernstamps.blogspot.com/">Karen's blog</a> to see all the new A Muse goodness.<br />
<br />
My card uses the new Floral Duet set. I wanted some larger flowers on which I could practice my Copic coloring. This set is great because it includes two sizes of flowers in both an outline and solid design. If you don't feel like coloring, you don't have to.:) My card also features one of the yummy new colors in the Venetian Palette - Lido. I stamped and colored these flowers and then cut them out and popped them up on this wonderful cardstock.<br />

Here is a sneak peek of the cover:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ4XBx4jsyoSb-YO5cW-FoNAydqVz4G1gWHXsKSUGnb_zugJKwMjUjRedOkvF2O6ZAR1rTLshLMHrBBB-T9puySDorzbAIDryMYpHNQTwF23BO9PeVqlQdqqKCa5SY_2p8G97uY31t4_Y/s1600/BCATA12L%25281%2529.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ4XBx4jsyoSb-YO5cW-FoNAydqVz4G1gWHXsKSUGnb_zugJKwMjUjRedOkvF2O6ZAR1rTLshLMHrBBB-T9puySDorzbAIDryMYpHNQTwF23BO9PeVqlQdqqKCa5SY_2p8G97uY31t4_Y/s1600/BCATA12L%25281%2529.jpeg" /></a></div><br />
There are new papers, inks, dies, and of course, stamps!! I've already ordered my catalog, and I can't wait to get my hands on it. (The cover is all I've seen so far as well!) We were shown and able to pre-order a few new items from the catalog, and I created a card with the new Keep Calm set:<br />
<br />

The first two are very simple cards that I used for make and takes. Many of the ladies at the crop had never heard of A Muse Studio, so it was a great way to introduce them to their products. As you can see, the addition of one element on the second card by my friend Carla:) helped to punch up that card a little. I love the My Aim is True set. Not only are they lovely stamps, but they also bring to mind this wonderful <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vs6HbYit5-A">classic from Elvis Costello</a>. They also fit the theme for this week's challenge at the <a href="http://amusestudiochallengeblog.blogspot.com/2012/01/love-is-in-air.html">A Muse Studio Challenge Blog</a>. Please check them out for more A Muse goodness!<br />

If you would like a template, please email me. They are simple to make, and you can make four out of a 3.5"x10" piece of card stock. I used these for a make and take at a crop that I was invited to recently, and they were a big hit. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

A Muse offered their consultants some great deals on their new holiday offerings, and they included several hand-stamped samples. I thought it was a great way to get our creative juices running. This sample uses our new classic tags dies and the Too Cute to Spook set on pages 4 and 5 in our <a href="https://www.securedcontent.net/amuse/pdfs/2011ASHolidayCatalog.pdf">holiday catalog</a>. It uses just a quarter sheet of cardstock for the base. The short ends are folded in towards each other and held with super-sticky tape.<br />

I went crazy with the Elzybells last summer when Elizabeth closed up shop and have yet to ink up all of them! I know you can relate.;) I sign up for swaps just to force myself to use my supplies. Somehow, I am always scrambling to get them done at the last minute no matter when I sign up...sigh...This girl is all set for summer. <br />

Here is the My Favorite Things card that I created. I used the <a href="https://www.mftstamps.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=7_11&products_id=1162">Who's That Musical Girl?</a> set and killed two birds with one stone. My younger ones had their piano recital this weekend, and I made up a few extras to give to their teacher. I was in a hurry when I took this photo, so it slightly out of focus. Of course I didn't notice until I gave all the cards away. Sorry!!<br />

I know it's been a while, but I <i>have</i> been stamping...just not posting.;) Today is the day for our A Muse Studio Blog Hop. You should have arrived here from <a href="http://lauriechilton.blogspot.com/">Laurie's blog</a>. If not, you can go back to the beginning at <a href="http://kania-amusestudio.blogspot.com/">Samantha's blog.</a> This month's theme was to create your own patterned paper. Coincidentally enough, I had created these card fronts for a swap on <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/cards-f107/muse-cardfront-swap-due-may-31-a-t522853.html">SCS</a>.<br />

I love how these turned out, and I can't wait to see what the other ladies in the swap created. Thanks for looking!

It's been a whirlwind week or so. I was in charge of the end-of-year banquet for the piano department at DS's arts high school. It was tonight, so I finally have time to breathe. This weekend was also DD's ballet performance. It's been crazy, but I hope to get back to stamping tomorrow and have something new to share with you soon.

Today I am participating in my first ever blog hop with some fellow A Muse Studio Creative Consultants. The theme this month is "Congratulations" to celebrate all those upcoming graduations, babies, weddings... you name it. You should have arrived here from <a href="http://amusesentimentaljourney.blogspot.com/2011/05/lets-celebrate.html">Doris' blog</a>. If not, you can go back to the beginning at <a href="http://kania-amusestudio.blogspot.com/2011/05/muse-studios-creative-consultant.html">Sami's blog</a> so you can see all the A Muse goodness. There may be blog candy, so be sure to check everyone out!<br />
<br />
I seem to be continuing my orange kick from last week, and here is the card that I came up with. As I have a teenager in the house, I wanted to make a card that could be used for either graduation, or another high school milestone. My DS goes to an arts school and there are always performances, adjudications, and auditions that he and his friends participate in. <i>ETA:</i> To line up the sentiment multiple times, I used my Stamp-a-majig stamp positioner, which you can find on page 107 of the<br />
<a href="https://www.securedcontent.net/amuse/pdfs/2011AMuseStudioCatalog.pdf#page=107">A Muse Studio catalog</a>. And yes, it took a couple tries.:)<br />

All are available from A Muse Studio. As my UPS man did not make it here Friday due to bad weather, you will have to check back later today for a picture of the blog candy! Included will be a yard each of the ribbon used in this card and a paper sampler. Comments for blog candy will be accepted until noon EST Friday, May 6th.<br />
<br />
<i>ETA:</i> My UPS man arrived. Here is your blog candy! This is my first shipment of the Shimmer Couture paper. OMG - I am in love! You will receive a sheet each of the Shimmer Couture Damask Cherry, Shimmer Couture Damask Onyx, Polka Dot Orange, and Ocean papers as well as a yard each of the ribbons shown.<br />
