Tropical Chic Suite

When I attended Onstage earlier this year the first bundle that caught my eye was the fabulous Tropical Escape Suite. Even though I live less then 10 mins to our local beach it still made me think of a beautiful tropical resort, with drinks being brought to me by the pool…..I have yet to do this in my 41 years but it is on my bucket list! I can dream right?

With beautiful lush foliage stamps, detailed Designer Series Paper and stunning new colours to work with what more could you ask for! I am loving the new Granny Apple Green Stamp Pad that accessorises so beautifully with this set.

Ill be honest the thing I look for when purchasing a bundle is will it be versatile and will I want to use it over and over again. I want a stamp set thats going to tick lots of boxes – versatility, value for money, multiple sentiments, fun to work with and scrapbook friendly. This list goes and on and luckily for me and you this set has it all!

Here is a gorgeous little card that I whipped up yesterday! I can’t take the credit for the design however as It was one of the samples Stampin’Up designed for the new colours they recently launched. The sweet little Gable Box was one of the Make and Takes I designed for our attendees to create for the Annual Bingo Launch over the weekend.

Heres a Video on how to create this card! Ill pop the instructions down below for you.
