Stampin' Addicts New Catalog Blog Hop - Age Awareness

WOW have you gotten your new Stampin' Up! Catalog?  What do you think? Are you as excited about it as I am.  I just love it there are so many great things in it.  I have fallen in love with a bunch of the new stamp sets and of course I love all the new Designer Series Paper.

I just want to welcome you to the Stampin' Addicts Blog Hop for the 2014 - 2015 Stampin' Up! Catalog.  I start it off but since you can start anywhere you might have just come in from Paula - she is showing off some Sweet Stuff.  Wasn't it sweet?

I am showing off a new Photopolymer set called Age Awareness.  Yes it is a Birthday Set, with 15 stamps, and I really love it, we really needed a jazzy, fun Birthday set and I think this is it.

This set is great for quick, easy, no layer cards. So my first card just flew to of the box when I opened it up.

I used some of the new In-Colors, I love how crisp and clean it is and so easy to do.

Stamp Set - Age Awareness (135381); Ink - Blackberry Bliss (133642), Hello Honey (133643), Tangelo Twist (133646); Card Stock - Whisper White (100730).

Next I tried a little of the new Designer Series paper Moonlight.

Don't you love that color combo.

I was going to do a box and I had a really cute idea but I have so many cards I have done with this set and we can only have 4 photos so I said I would just do the cards.  Hope you don't mind.  This next one is a man card. I have a friend (yes i do have one) who has a birthday on July 4th.  I seem to forget it every year,  I remember his birthday as they always shoot fireworks off but I just don't remember to send him a card.  Hopefully I will send his this card before his birthday this year.  At least the card is done.

You think it will make up for forgetting it for years?
