~Stamp Simply Ribbon Store presents…..~

Good morning, friends!

Have you ever had a secret that you were just bursting at the seams to share?   I remember when I found out I was pregnant with my first child, I couldn’t wait to tell everybody, but I had to wait until Christmas to tell my parents first.   It was excruciating!

Well, it’s Christmas..lol.. no, not really.   Today I get to tell you all about a new adventure!   Awhile ago, Sharon Johnson (notimetostamp) aka Stamp Simply Ribbon Store, contacted me about a design team she was putting together for her store.   I was so excited about the ‘birth’ of this new team.   I wanted to tell everybody, but had to wait until today!

It really is a dream team.   Here we are:

 

Sharon Johnson (Stamp Simply Ribbon Store)

Deb Saaranen

Holly McMillen

Michelle Woerner

Sherry Cheever

Linda Duke

Barb Schram

Ok, so if you don’t already know about Sharon’s store, then YOU MUST check out the gorgeous products she carries.   See that header up there?   That is a picture of the new Webster’s Pages Postcards from Paris Kit.   It comes with papers, ribbon, pearls, journal notes and did I mention the ribbon?!   Here is a project I made with the kit….

I have to take a moment to *GEEK* over the ribbon.   I know, I know…I’m harping on it.   It IS the most luscious ribbon I have ever worked with.   And then there is the bow easy.   I have always been bow challenged, so this little tool has quickly become indispensable to me.   Perfect bows, every time!

Here are my deets on this card:

Stamps:  JustRite Stampers’ Romantic Sentiments

Colors: Vanilla, Bermuda Bay, Webster’s Pages dp

Ink: Versafine Black Onyx

Accessories: Satin Ribbon, Kaiser pearls, Circle Nesties, circle punches, bow easy, Cotton Scraps #11 Flowers, decorative plate, dimensionals, sticky tape

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Ok, now here’s the fun part.   YOU can win the Webster’s Pages Postcards from Paris Kit!   On Tuesday February 23, 2010, we are having our very first blog hop as a team.   At 8am EST that day, we will start hopping from Sharon’s blog.   Along the way we will show more projects.   All you need to do is drop a comment on the blogs.    On February 28th at 6pm EST, a winner will be chosen randomly from all the comments on all the blogs.   Easy peasy, right?   You definitely want to get in on this!   Check out the goodies in that header again!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Thanks so much for stopping by today!   Make sure you check out the other girls’ blogs… they have created some GORGEOUS eye-candy!   Many blessings to all!

Hugs,

Holly

    Oh Holly! Your card is stunning! I have been analyzing all the little details, the 1/2 border backing on the sentiment AND the other 1/2 peeking out behind the sunflower, the double bow, the metal and pearl accents. Everything is perfect! I am so thrilled to be on this team with you. I have been a huge fan since my early days at SCS. My “favorites” page is dotted with your cards. LOL! Hugs to you my friend, michelle

    […] HOLLY McMILLEN, Design Team Coordinator — I have admired Holly’s work for years.� She was one of the very first to strike me with that *WOW* factor when I was a newbie at SCS.� Her designs are always crisp and clean, but not necessarily simple, incorporating layers upon layers of meticulous detail.� I had the pleasure of serving with Holly on the Dirty Dozen Design Team at SCS in 2007.� Those are definitely times you never forget and it was my pleasure to share that experience with Holly.� Holly’s DT reveal project can be seen�at her blog, Toy’s Haven.
