In with the NEW!

This chart shows the new color family structure. It doesn't show the new "in colors" that will be in the next catalog, you won't see those for a while. But this is what the main color families will look like for the next several years.

Out with the Old!

Stampin' Up! announced today that a large list of colors in our current catalog will be retiring at the end of June! They will also be bringing back some of our old favorite "in colors" and adding some new "in colors" that will stick around for two years instead of one. I am super excited about this change because I am loving the new colors, the colors coming back, and space that will be freed up to add more embellishments and ribbons in the future!

Here's the list of retiring colors:

This means that after June 30, 2010 these colors will no longer be available so if there is any of these that you must have you need to start ordering now.

Flower Pin

I can't sew but look what I made. I used the flower fold Bigz XL die and cut out the flowers from a flat quarter of material. Shelly showed these Flower Brooches at Convention last year and I finally had the chance to make one. If you are looking for instructions, Shelli has them on her blog here: http://www.soshelli.com/so-shelli-blog/2009/9/25/my-flowerful-brooch.html
Just click on the link for complete directions.
I will tell you though that I don't sew so, I used just a little hot glue to assemble mine.

More from My Digital Studio

Here are two more pages I made using My Digital Studio.

My Digital Studio

I finally got some time today to play with My Digital Studio, this page took me all of 3 minutes to make. I am loving this program.
