Susana's Custom Art & Card Design ~ Release Day Hop

Good Morning... Woo Hoo!!! Finally, time for the big SCACD release day blog hop! We have all been waiting to show you the gorgeous new collection by Elisabeth Bell for SCACD Stamps - Sampler Edition #5, and we know you've been just as eager to see them!


Want this badge?

There is a fabulous line up for you today, with the SCACD Design Team, the Quixotic Paperie Design Team and our very special guest - Susanna Boyd of CardoftheWeek and Papercraft Planet! Lots of lovely inspiration!

The new collection is now available over at Susana's Custom Art & Card Design in the Elisabeth Bell section! And for those of you in the UK/Europe, the collection is also available at Quixotic Paperie, Elaine has them in stock and ready to go!

You should have hopped over here from the lovely Carolyn Bounds, but... If you're only just joining us, you may want to start at the beginning over on Suzanne Dean's Blog, as you definitely don't want to miss any of the gorgeous creations! If you get lost at any point, or just want a recap on all the info, pop on over to the SCACD Store Blog!

Here's my make using the Go Green girl with the planter from the new release, such cute fun images and teamed with these papers remind me of summer... I've used Card Pattern's sketch 69 for my card design. I couldn't resist making a notebook based on Kazan's sketch with a working paper mill that spins round too!
