I held my very first Virtual Stampin' Up! Facebook Party this past weekend and it was a blast! It started on Friday Night and ran off and on until Sunday at 4 pm. I posted tutorials and gave out prizes, we all shared cards and other projects we were working on and had lots of fun! I hope to do it again, but first I have to rest up from the first one!!
Here are two of the projects I posted on the weekend.
The first is a card using one of my favourite stamp sets from the Occasions catalogue - Going Global
And the second is a Nugget Book Favour that could be used for so many events! I used the Shine On Specialty Designer Series Paper for the cover as it is heavier than regular DSP or cardstock.
Happy Stamping...
Going Global!
