I have been itching to try out this brand new set that SU gave us at Leadership when we thought the presents were done.....1000 women getting unexpected and gorgeous free stamps....you would have thought we all won the lottery!! Such a fun memory!! ;) I absolutely LOVE this new set and look forward to many more cards with it as it has other neat stamps too.....it's a beauty!! Hope you like my card!! I even said a prayer that something in this weeks inspiration challenge would enable me to use this set!! The background on my card is the stamp used over and over and over - and then vellum on top - NO DP HERE!! My new favorite set!!
PS - SINCE SO MANY ARE ASKING WHEN THIS SET WILL BE AVAILABLE - IT'S GOING TO BE IN THE SUMMER MINI CATALOG- SO IT'S A SNEAK PEEK HERE. THAT WILL BE IN THE MERRY MERRY MONTH OF MAY 2010 - I CAN'T WAIT!!!! (AND ALL THAT CUTTING THAT EVERYONE KEEPS COMMENTING ON, THAT'S WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU MAKE A MESS ON THE BACKGROUND TRYING TO CUT THE PANEL DOWN BEFORE IT'S DRY....A HAPPY ACCIDENT- HAHA)

Beautiful card Karen! I had to look twice at the background DP to be sure it was DP and not the stamp set. Goes so well together and your layering is perfect!!

Karen, this is a triple WOW card!!! I can see this will be a popular stamp for sure! I don't think I'd have the patience to do all that amazing cutting, though!
