My There She Goes mini sets arrived just in time for me to participate in the blog hop today :) Yippie! Haven't been stamping much this week due to these facts: 1. I have been in trying to set up my new classroom and that's taking a ton of time. 2. As I mentioned before, we were renovating our bedroom and the mess spilled out. We have not yet cleaned the mess that spilled out in the craft room. It's a real mojo killer. And 3. I just about cut the tip of my thumb off in our sliding door on Sunday and it hurts!!! I think I probably could have used a stitch but it's too late now. It's actually MUCH better than it was earlier in the week but I still have had to be careful.
Anyways, here is a preview of the two mini sets I was lucky enough to receive in the mail.
Can I just say that for mini-sets, Jessica has sure packed a pile of stamps in that space!
My first card uses the first set called Polka Dot Blooms. I used the Fall to Layout 56 from Clean and Simple Stamping. Colours are Rich Razzleberry, Kiwi Kiss and Whisper White. The sentiment is from the Dream Big set as are the stamps for this next card.
This wedding card uses Going Grey, Basic Black and Papertrey white. The grey layer is on dimensionals. I added jewels to make it a little flashy but am thinking that smaller jewels might have been more appropriate? Unfortunately, they ripped a bit when I tried to take them off so they are staying!
