Mother's Day Mosaic

Feel like I have been chasing my tail since coming back from convention, so this is a little later than intended but better late than never!

One item I was really sad to see on the recent retirement list was the Mosaic Madness stamp set and co-ordinating punch. Thankfully we will still have the mosaic embossing folder! So I thought for a last hoorah I would use Mosaic Madness for some Mother's Day cards this year - and I would use images from the set that don't coordinate with the punch (since I tended to use those co-ordinating ones more). The Modern Label punch, and the Label Something stamp set are on the retired list as well. I've also used three of the retiring In Colors with Crisp Canteloupe, Strawberry Slush and Coastal Cabana. I really love these colours together and have been using them quite a bit over the last few months, it will be sad to see them go :(

Christmas Break

I still have some Christmas cards to share, but thought it might be nice to share something else for a change. This card was kind of inspired by a few images of mixed tiles that I saw around the traps. I thought that using a mixture of embossing folders would be a great effect, though it was quite fiddly to put together! I mixed it up even further by flipping some of the pieces over, to get some positive and negative impressions. And since the new Stampin' Up! catalogue came out, with the new set of In Colors, I've been dying to put Rich Razzleberry together with the new Blackberry Bliss. It's taken me long enough but I finally got there... and this won't be the last you see of the pair, let me say that now!
