I admit when I first saw these in the Occasions Mini, I just sort of glossed over them but now that I have seen them in action, I have just got to get me some!! Sue Berreth hosted an Occasions Mini/Sale-a-Bration swap at her stamping studio so I will be showing you all the nifty ideas I got there. We had some fabulous designers at the event including Lisa Lin, Lisa McTaggert, Chrissy Mentzel and Sue herself to name a few. I did not get who designed all of the cards so I can't always give appropriate credit but will do so when I know!
You are probably wondering what do sweet peas have to do with crafting??? Aren't they are either a starchy vegetable or a nickname for my young child?? Nope - they are custom-colored felt pieces, many are handcrafted and can you believe you get over 50!! pieces for a mere $7.95??? WOW - you will be seeing these little guys soon in club and other venues very soon! Take a look at this wonderful card:
I love this card!!! In addition to the Sweet Peas, it uses the new extra large flower punch and the new Perfect Polka Dots embossing folders. OK...just have to say it...can't stop it...isn't it just SWEET?!
I used to call my son "sweetie peatie" when he was little. He is 15 now and just a hair taller than me so how many shades of red do you think he will turn when he learns that I told the blog-o-sphere that I called him that? He is such a neat guy and as I write this - off somewhere on his dirt bike, soon to return and probably covered with mud which will then get tracked into my house, which won't make me happy but I guess if he is nice and had fun, I might let him get away with it...
TTFN! Michelle
