My mouth literally dropped open after I discovered my Stampin’ Pretty logo embroidered on this adorable pouch duo. This was a thank you gift I’ll treasure forever from one of my downline members, Brian King.
The zippered pouches were sewn and embroidered by Brian’s boss (he’s an accountant by day), Laura Wiese. Laura even lined the interior with Stampin’ Up! Summer Smooches Fabric. Brian made the sweet coordinating butterfly card. Be sure to check out his blog for more of his papercrafting ideas.
Sue Bendinsky of my Stampin’ Pretty Pals created this adorable card which captures the essence of the Stampin’ Up! Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper and Bright Blossoms Stamp Set. I love how she framed the vase and cropped the single flower and rhinestone–the perfect touch!
Naki Rager (also one of my Pals) created this card and charming mason jar filled with paper buttons. The Chevron Embossing Folder background is so striking and she pierced and “sewed” around the sentiment with Stampin’ Up! Island Indigo Baker’s Twine. Catch more of Naki’s card ideas on her blog.
Stacy McCain (not a member of my downline–just a sweet fellow demonstrator) surprised me at the Stampin’ Up! Convention by sharing this adorable mini clip board, covered in Stampin’ Up! Summer Smooches Fabric. The clip has a magnet that keeps the board in place on a refrigerator. What a precious way to post a reminder note!
Those friendly, little tulips are the perfect Stampin’ Pretty personalization for this “congrats” card from Amy Gehman (a member of my Stampin’ Pretty Pals). The mason jar full of Bright Blossoms tulips and “lid” really pop among the stamped Crumb Cake jars. Such an artistic perspective, Amy!

Mary, thanks for sharing these today (and mine, too!). I love seeing what everyone has done 🙂 The fabric pouches are amazing! Congrats again on your many achievements this year!
Awesome, you mean a lot to many people. That was so thoughtful of Brian and Lauren did an excellent job on the pouches. You are very lucky to have so many friends.

Great post today. The pouches are so fabulous! Lucky girl! Brian certainly is a sweetheart.

Love these projects!I was excited when the stamp set had your fun tulip in it but wished it had been larger. These projects bring back more inspiration for using all of these products. Summer is not over, yet.
