Stampin' Addicts Retiring Stamp Sets Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stampin' Addicts Retiring Stamp Sets Blog Hop.   It is almost time (Yeah!!!)  for the release of the Stampin' Up 2014 annual catalog.  To make room for the many new stamps and accessories we must say good-bye to some favorites.  Members of Stampin' Addicts have prepared a quick little hop of some of those retiring products.

The Road to Happiness is one of those retiring that I will miss.   It has a sweet little convertible with cute accessories ranging from birthday, friendship, thank you and wedding.  I used it recently for this bridal shower card.
I actually started with the idea of the diagonal striped paper for the road and built it up from there.  Kind of a funny starting point but it worked!

The card base is a bit different on this one as I used a 3" X 12" piece of DSP and added a piece of whisper white card stock on the inside for writing.  Looks like I forgot to stamp on it!  I usually add a coordinating stamped image on the inside.
Because this was a hand delivered gift I did not need to use an envelope and the card was part of the package decoration.
Thanks for stopping by today!  Please click on the buttons below to continue forward to Rhonda's blog where she has lovely projects with the Secret Garden set or backward to Heidi's blog where she has adorable projects with the Peek-a-Boo Frames die.
