Today's card is a CASE of the card at the top of page 72 of the current Idea Book & Catalogue. It was created using blues for the catalogue, but I preferred a more feminine pink palette for my version of the card, so I changed the blues to Rose Red (the lighter shade was achieved by stamping off the image on scrap paper before stamping it on my cardstock). I love how versatile the projects in our IB&C's are -I often change out colours or stamp sets to get a different version of the cards or scrap pages in the book. Sometimes I get what seems to be a completely different card!

The huge range of projects and ideas is one of the many great benefits of owning your own Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalogue. I'm currently taking preorders for the new 2009/2010 Idea Book & Catalogue, to be released on April 1st. With co-ordinating product suggestions, current style watch features and hundreds of project samples, this is one of the most versatile, useful project books you will own. Pre-ordered IB&C's are available to my readers for the special price of $15, including postage (usually $18.90 including postage). To reserve your copy, please email me with your name and postal address and I will reply with payment details. Payments are accepted via direct deposit, paypal or credit card (visa and mastercard only -please do not send credit card details through the mail).
