Blogger's Challenge #22

Edit to add: I removed the card as I am using as an entry for something!
Challenge #22: Inspiration challenge! This one literally fell into my lap. I normally toss unfamiliar catalogs but this catalog from Seventh Avenue looked interesting, even though I wasn't going to order anything. I decided to look through it and found this great bed set as my inspiration for this week!

I chose the Priceless stamp set and used Chocolate Chip, Basic Black, Ruby Red and Creamy Caramel ink. I stamped the word "priceless" onto the Chocolate Chip satin ribbon (which is BUY ONE GET ONE FREE UNTIL DEC. 15 OR SUPPLIES RUN OUT! YOU CAN ALSO CHOOSE THE PURELY POMEGRANETE OR ONE OF EACH!) Then, I used a sponge dauber to make a flower from the Pretties Kit Ruby Red and added that with a pearl center, also from the Pretties Kit. Mounted the entire thing onto a Ruby Red card.

The BOGO (Buy one, get one) is not the only special item SU has until Dec. 15 (or supplies run out!) go to: www.stampinup.com and click on Specials and promotions and see what else is available with the Wrapping up the Holidays promo along with the other specials SU is running with the Designer Series Paper and the All in the Family promo.
