Christi's Creative Crew: Adoption Cards

Although I have never adopted a child of my own, I can greatly appreciate those who have.
I was not adopted myself by my parents but I have been adopted into God's family, to which I can never be more grateful.
These darling cards are inspired by Tamara

I absolutely LOVE the new TUFTED Embossing Folder, but I did pull out a couple retired items (Cuddles & Kisses Stamp Set, Sassy Hearts Framelits.

What I changed up: The ribbon & color. I am using the Berry Burst Metallic Edge 3/8" Ribbon for the girl version and the Pool Party 3/8" Shimmer Ribbon. Both ribbons are currently in the Annual Catalog.

The colors on my kangaroos from ANIMAL OUTING are Crumb Cake light and dark STAMPIN' BLENDS on the girl version, and Ivory and Bronze STAMPIN' BLENDS on the boy version. Which one do you like better?

Stampin' Up!'s promotion for September is this wonderful Designer Paper called DASHING ALONG

How was the Dashing Along Designer Series Paper created?
To create our exclusive Dashing Along Designer Series Paper, Stampin' Up! used a mix of old favorites and new patterns to bring you beautiful, traditional Christmas paper. This collection of patterns has an eclectic feel and is perfect for layering, and while the newsprint design isn’t Christmas-themed, it was selected for its versatility and popularity. I hope you’ll love this Designer Series Paper as much as I do, and remember, it’s available for a limited time only!
