Welcome to the Dusty Durango Path of the Royal Blog Tour. You are currently located at Stop Number 2.
Hi - welcome to my blog! I'm so glad to be a stop on this great Blog Tour - I hope you enjoy what you've been seeing so far! I'm so happy to feature the stamp set Party Hearty with you on this stop!
I love making birthday cards and since we just recently had a birthday in our house it was sooo fun to play with this stamp set for the blog tour. My birthday girls favorite color is Pink so I started with that and then just let the creativity flow!
Card uses: Cardstock- Regal Rose, Old Olive, Real Red, Whisper White; Ink-Old Olive, Real Red, Regal Rose; Accessories: Modern Label Punch, Clips Assortment, Silver Brads
For my next work of heart I just HAD to use some glitter... I love love love Glitter in case you didnt know..... it's just such a great embellishment and is honestly pretty inexpensive! Besides, who doesn't like something shiny in their life right?!
I use Dazzling Diamonds glitter mixed in with Crystal Effects to "frost" my cupcakes on this one! They look so YUMMY in person! It's hard to tell in my photo (and I just couldn't get a good angle) but the cupcakes circles are raised up with Stampin Dimensionals too so they practically jump into your mouth!
Supplies used: Cardstock: Regal Rose, Real Red, Old Olive, Summer Sun, Whisper White; Inks: Summer Sun, Regal Rose, Olive Olive, Creamy Caramel; Accessories: Modern Label Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Paper Piercer & Mat Set, Crystal Effects, Dazzling Diamonds, Stampin Dimensionals
Here is a close up of those yummy cupcakes and paper piercing....
And as a bonus - here is the PERFECT goody treat bag!
This great treat bag uses our Sizzix Curly Label Movers & Shapers Die for the Big Shot
I saw this treat bag shared by a fellow demonstrator and just HAD to use her idea to create a treat bag using Party Hearty (hers was made for wedding favors and was totally elegant looking)!

Those are so cute! I especially love the "bling" you added on the frostings! My favorite sets-since I can't chose just one-are the Asian inspired ones and the new Medallion stamp (must get that soon). Thank you for sharing your creativity!

what great samples!
I know it sounds silly for a bg stamp to be a fave, but I really like the new woodgrain stamp. I can see so many possibilities for it!

Listing a favorite stamp set is hard. I really love the hostess set Asian Artistry. I used it at my demo's open house yesterday. I hope I can earn it this year. Thanks for sharing your great projects.

I love your cards and that gift bag! That would have been a great favor to use for Andrea's wedding. Oh well. It's hard to say exactly which is my favorite stamp set but for now I think I have to say it's A Peace Within. I love the peacefulness of it plus the cat! I'm a demo. :-)

I am a fairly new Stampin' Up! customer so I can't say I really have a favorite set yet. I love Halloween and saw some super cute sets in the new catalog that I think I "have" to have though :) Thanks for the super ideas!
