Big Shot Baskets & Blooms


My pre-order of the new Stampin'Up! Holiday Mini Catalog came yesterday....ten new stamp sets, a new punch, plus...oh boy!! I also ordered the Big Shot Special Edition Starter Kit....I got the Big Shot, but most of the dies were backordered, with the exception of the Baskets & Blooms. Now, I know I can use all my other dies in it, but I WANTED my new stuff...boohoo!

But at least I had the blaskets and bloom die to play with. My daughter came out today and we played with all my "tools". I think I have created another "card~paper addict", as she already does scrapbooking, so why not add this to it???

I made the basket on the left last night and together we made the basket on the right....these are addicting, too, and we used the yummy new SU DS paper Autumn Vine. It was fun and she is coming back tomorrow to work on some Bella cards, yep, I got her hooked on those too, she colored one in with chalks while she was here! She recently ran the JDRF Crop (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) and wants to send thank you notes to all the donors of prizes, food and our crop location at Pages In Time!

I have a few more things almost ready to post, so please check back!
