JAI #172: INSPIRED BY THE NEW SU! CATALOGUE





This week at Just Add Ink, Mae has challenged us to create something inspired by the cover of the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue.  It is such a cute, fun, scene, that also featured at Stampin' Up!'s recent Convention; I just love it.  Take a look:






A little Ikea frame has been sitting unloved in my cupboard for a while.  I decided to make a 'sampler' of the new Stampin' Up! In Colors, to display in my craft room.  Here's what I came up with, inspired by the photo above:







...... and a closer view of a few of the "punchies":
