Welcome to our Maine Demonstrators Stampin' Up! Blog Hop.  You should  have arrived here from my friend and team member, Carrie Arsenault's blog.  I hope you are enjoying this sneak preview of Stampin' Up!'s new 2016-2017 Annual Catalog.  This hop will go live  Wednesday, May 25th at 7 pm.  If you reach any of participating blogs before 7pm the links may not have been activated yet.  Leave a comment along the way to let us know you enjoyed the blog hop.
I am using the coordinating Painter's Palette stamp set  for both of my cards.  The first card uses the Painter's Palette stamp set which is part of the Playful Palette suite (coordinating mettalic thread, baker's twine, washi tape, stamps, and paper). Wahoo!

Supplies:
Stamp:  Painter's Palette – Wood 141907, clear 141910
Cardstock:  Emerald Envy  – 141415  cut 5 1/4" x 10 1/2"  score at 5 1/4"; Whisper White – 100730 ' cut 3 1/2" x 2 1/2"; and Plalyful Palette Designer Series Paper Stack – 141657 cut 2 each 3/4" x 4", 3/4" x 5", and 3" x  4".
Ink:  Basic Black – 140931, Peekaboo Peach – 141398, Flirty Flamingo – 141397, Sweet Sugarplum – 141395, Emerald Envy – 141396
Accessories:   3/8" Rauched Reekaboo Peach Ribbon – 141427, Metallics Sequin Assortment – 138390
Fancy Fold: Center Step Card

Angled view:

The second card uses 2 new stamp sets: Pop of Paradise and Confetti Celebration. I think the flamingo adds a "playful" addition to the card.
