New Stamp Set

So on Saturday we had our Regional Training (my first one I attended) and it was great!  So many inspirational ideas from my fellow Stampin' Up Demonstrators and then of course, every single one of us received a new Stamp Set called, Mixed Bunch.  We knew before-hand the name of the Stamp Set so in preparation of receiving it on Saturday, I ordered the matching punch, called Blossom Punch which arrived Thursday last week.  I was really excited to receive my stamp set and then of course, the matching punch, as it is a really versatile stamp set.  This is what the stamp set and matching punch looks like.

I love the So Saffron Taffeta Ribbon and decided to use that as the deciding colour for the card I plan to make with the new stamp set and punch.  The other reason I decided to use it, is a friend of mine recently told me that her son is getting married and the colour combination for the wedding will be white and yellow and this just sparked the thought and colour combination behind this card, although I used a 'happy birthday' sentiment.

I further used my BigShot for the embossing (unfortunately the embossing folder is not Stampin' Up - not this time anyway), some Crystal Effects with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter and a Rhinestone to finish it all off.
