amuse-bouche - Mother Earth

Today's amuse-bouche is cool & crisp, featuring the blues and greens of Shimmer Couture! 

And once you've finished taking in all the pretty new eye-candy, be sure to comment!  You just may win some of this lovely new paper!  Details below!

Emily's "thank you" card is simple elegance at it's finest.  So clean, so crisp, so simple ... so A Muse!  And adding just a hint of Robin's Egg Shimmer Couture, along with our new Leaf Frond stamp, really completes the look!

Elena created a lovely stationery set using Ocean and Lime Shimmer Couture and Shimmer Couture Damask (complete with matching container).  And did you spot the new Ocean Polka Dot Ribbon!?  So pretty!

This lovely card from Katie really shows off our gorgeous new Sky Blue Pearls!

 
Sky Blue Pearls and Robin's Egg Shimmer Couture Damask combine with the Leaf Frond and our new Classic Alphabet set to make this elegant personalized notecard! 
 
  
  

Lexi used our bold, graphic new "Thanks" stamp to create this beautifully bold thank you note.  And in addition to the new Robin's Egg and Lime Shimmer Couture papers, there's one more new goodie on this card: Sky Blue Twinkle Stickers!

Wasn't this a fun day of sneaks?  So clean and fresh ... simple elegance at it's finest!  But that's not all today!  Leave a comment, one per person, for your chance to win an assortment of these fabulous new papers!

These papers and stamps are showing up in your local shops now and will be available online October 16th!

I'll be back tomorrow with one more day of fabulous amuse-bouche you won't want to miss!
