FALLING FOR FALL . . . AND "SPICE CAKE"


Every now and then, I get kind of obsessed with a project that is nicely designed in my head, and I can hardly wait to complete it.  This Fall decoration was that kind of project.  I had told myself that I didn't "need" to purchase Stampin' Up!'s "Spice Cake" designer paper, but I was wrong, wrong, wrong.  Just look at it . . . it's gorgeous!  I love that it has a few splashes of "Pool Party" (one of the new In Color colors) because I am in love with that color!  To create the stacked flowers, I used Stampin' Up'!'s new Simply Scored scoring tool.  I have to admit that I already owned "the other two" scoring boards, but the Simply Scored board really and truly has features that the others don't have.  Believe me . . . I would NOT have invested in a third scoring board if one of my others was just like it!  Other Stampin' Up! products used to create this project include Old Olive striped grosgrain ribbon, Eyelet Border punch, Serif Essentials alphabet dies, Leaves #2 Sizzix die, More Mustard grosgrain ribbon (retired), linen thread, and a few gorgeous designer buttons.
