Re-purpose with Stampin' Up!

Yesterday at my Stampin' Up! hostess club, I challenged the members to bring a re-purposed item that was using SU products to decorate.  Here are their projects.....

Happy Mother's Day

I used Stampin' Up's My Digital Studio to design some rack cards for Creative Inspiration.  I am attaching both front and back.

Baby Red Potato Salad

I tried a new recipe this evening that my daughter Suzan had told me about.  She has been using a lot of recipes from Gina Homolka from http://www.skinnytaste.com  This Baby Red Potato Salad is very tasty.  I used some fresh basil and parsley (from my herb pots) instead of the green peppers and scallions and used sweet onion instead of red onion.  The red wine vinegar makes it taste fresh and light.
