Thank You Blog with the Bertucci's - June 2022

 Mistakes Generate Creativity

What does that mean?  Mistakes generate creativity.  Have you ever worked on a project and were just about finished and then... S-M-E-A-R...you find a smear on your project.  You have two options.  One, you can through it away and start over or two, you can "fix" it.  If it's a small item that didn't take you long, you probably would choose to trash it.  But, if you've worked on it for several hours, you'll be tempted to see what you can do to "hide" the mistake.  

Sound familiar?  I was working on the cards below and then, I saw the SMEARS!   And on almost every card!  Somehow my inky fingers got on them or my block was not as clean as I thought.  And to make it worse, the color was Sweet Sorbet (RED)!   The worse!  So I opted to "fix" them. Luckily, the smears were at the top of the card, so I cut that part off, trimmed it, and matted it to Sweet Sorbet card stock. The results are the cards below. Mistakes generate creativity!  See one of my new creations below:

My cards below are part of the Bruno and Kylie Bertucci's Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Training Program Blog Hop.  

The Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Blog Hop is created through the Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Training Program provided by Bruno and Kylie Bertucci.  The blog hop offers you beautiful stamping ideas and creative inspiration from over 40 Stampin' Up! International Demonstrators.  Many of the Demonstrators will be using the new products found in the new 2022 - 2023 Annual Catalog and the soon to be released, July - December 2022 Mini (Holiday) Catalog.  

We, Demonstrators, participate in the training program provided by the Bertucci's to help us build a successful Stampin' Up! business and to reach some goals we have set for ourselves.  We really appreciate your support.

My cards shown below use the stamp set and dies from the Sending Smiles bundle from the 2022 - 2023 Annual Catalog.  I used some of the new In Colors along with some of my favorites to make the flowers.  The grass and leaves at the bottom were made with two of the stamps and two colors, Soft Succulent (2021 - 2023 In Color) and Parakeet Party (2022 - 2024 In Color).  The flowers were stamped with various flower stamps from and ink colors: Sweet Sorbet  (2022 - 2024 In Color), Crushed Curry, Fresh Freesia, and Blushing Bride.

The word "Sending" was stamped in Sweet Sorbet and then was cut out with a die from the bundle.  The "Thank You" comment was stamped with Starry Sky ink, another 2022-2024 In Color.

The stamp set has several nice stamps included in it.  First, there's several sentiments that go nicely with "Sending" such as "Smiles across the miles", "Love & Big Hugs", and "A card to say Hello" .  It also has several flowers like the ones on the card below.  I love stamp sets that offer several different ways to create cards.
