Here is what we created at stamp club last week. It is the perfect tag for the perfect gift. One of the ladies in club saw some cute wine tags from a winery and thought "we can make those", so we did. The tag uses the Top Note die (113463) , Square Latice embossing folder (119976), Vintage Springtime dsp (Occasions Mini), and the 3/4" circle punch (119873) for the grapes. To make the grapes we started with a piece of cardstock cut into a triangle. We layered the circles (6 in Perfect Plum and 7 in Concord Grape) from the top down. I did 3 in the top row, 4 the next, then 3, then 2, then 1. The leaf is the 5-petal flower punch in Pear Pizzazz. Happy Stampin' Tricia The April Spring is Blossoming Promotion going on now!

I had to share this exciting news! My husband and I are going to be on HSN (home shopping network) tonight! I belong to a website called HouseParty.com, if you don't know about it you should look it up. We won a Kraft Philadelphia Cooking Creme party. We received a free Green Pan, Cooking Creme, spoons, and other trinkets just for holding the party. Then as if that wasn't enough, we applied to Skype our party on HSN, and were picked! So exciting! So we will be on tonight at 7pm p/10pm e. Please tune in! Of course I made the goody bags and will share with you what I did with those later. Happy Stampin' Tricia
