PPA71 Occasions Mini Cupcake Punch

Stampin up cupcake punch occasions mini catalog
Notice anything different about my Stampin' Pretty blog?  Veronica McCollum (VK Design Company), who designed my original banner and buttons, helped me with a blog "mini face lift."  Take a look around at the new look and organization on the side bars. Very nip tuck.  Highlights include a new Tutorial Library, themed category buttons and a special button for my 1 Minute to "Wow" Video Tutorials.

STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:

  • Stampin up cupcake punch fabulous phrases Just like a cupcake wrapper (or is it called a "cup?").  I used a Crimper to add wavy texture to the Chocolate Chip card stock.
  • The Pear Pizzazz frame was fashioned with the Scallop Trim Border and Corners Punches.  My video tutorial HERE shows you how to make them work in tandem for squares and rectangles.
  • A little doodling with a Regal Rose Stampin' Write Marker adds a touch of whimsy.
  • Fabulous Phrases stamp set is my "little black dress" of pretty sentiments.  Great for combining words, too.
  • For a little polish, I added a coordinating Regal Rose pattern to the envelope flap.  Click to watch a video and see how easy this simple detail is!

WHERE IS THE "WOW?"  Now that the remodeling to our home exterior and landscaping is coming to an end, it will be quiet enough to "roll tape" on my 1 Minute to "WOW" Videos again.  I have lots of ideas I'm itching to share!
