Hello there! Today I have a couple of things to share. First up is the brand new STAMPtember® collaboration stamp set by Tim Holtz. I love Tim’s blueprint designs, sized perfectly with card makers in mind.
This exclusive Tim Holtz stamp set is a STAMPtember 2015 Limited Edition that will only be available for sale at Simon Says Stamp until midnight EST September 30, 2015 (while supplies last). Since I am not really a coffee lover, I turned the iced coffee image into a Cotton Candy Crème Frappuccino. Pink is always more fun anyways, right? I also stamped the striped pattern on the side using the new Basic Stripes stamp set.
Also wanted to share that I have a project up on my dear friend Virginia Lu’s challenge blog for her latest Geometric Patterns challenge.
I created the dimensional pattern by using the Chevron Pattern Full Card die.
I took a positive cut from the die and used it as a guide to pop up each little piece, keeping them all perfectly aligned. It took some time, not gonna lie. Not sure why I’m always so drawn to such time consuming designs. I blame it on the rainbow cardstock.
Check out Virginia’s latest challenge and play along for your chance to win a $25 Simon Says Stamp gift certificate! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Maybe you could share that story with us one day, I always enjoy your background stories!! Anyway, just wanted to tell you that you always have the bestest cards to me!!!

Loving that drink stamp and fantastic/painstaking work on that VV card!
Be still my heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Second card)
These are fabulous. I love the new TH set and the idea of a Cotton Candy Creme Frappucino is delightful. The second card is amazing, lots of work but well worth the effort!
Happy Fall and Happy Stamptember, Laura B! Love this blue prints set! You are tempting me something terrible, with your lovely cards! lol
Your work is so inspiring Laura – I had just 5 minutes ago decided not to put the full chevron in my cart at SSS (as it’s rather full already!) but I saw your card and decided I must now have it!!! I love your cheery designs and the way you take things to the next level – the time you put in is well worth it as your cards are fantastic. Thanks for inspiring us 🙂
The frappacino card and the geometric card are so awesome! I love the yummmmmy color of the frappacino drink….I can taste it now!!! Hehe! And the geometric card is a labor of love….really, so straight and colorful and creative. Only YOU would be able to do create such awesome cards.
love the colors on this card. . . beautiful!
Love the dimensional geometric card…and yes, the right cardstock can make for labor intensive, but very cool projects
Your cards are fabulous! Thanks for sharing–your blog provides so much inspiration!
Love this!
Ooooowww…I really love your iced coffee card, AND your chevron card. Great inspiration….
Love both these cards – especially the one that took all the time (tee hee, glad you do them and not me) :o)
Wow, amazing cards!
Is there really such a thing as a cotton candy creme frappachino? Your card looks delicious and I’d like to try one!
both are wonderful cards, although I don’t think I would attempt the second one. Love the TH stamps this year.
Fabulous and fun designs! Love your cards!
I’m always drawn to the most time consuming option it seems! Thanks so much, I enjoyed this card!
Beautiful cards Laura! I love that die cut and how you popped each piece off the card. Talk about patience 🙂
