2 card ideas with Cradled in Love – a sweet set that’s free during Sale-a-Bration

One of the free stamp set choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog is the Cradled in Love set.  A sweet group of stamps perfect for baby cards.  See this stamp set here. 

Here's a quick card I created for my Open House boards:

My colors include Flirty Flamingo, White & Smoky Slate.  That large die-cut is from our new Perennial Postage dies seen here.

I paired it with the new Most Adored specialty designer paper – another free option during Sale-a-Bration this year. I added a 2" wide strip under the main element diagonally. 

Both the stamp set and paper are available through February or while supplies last.  See this pretty paper here.  It's filled with gold foil designs on one side and Flirty Flamingo & Real Red on the other.

This photo does not show it well at all.  The colors are rich and gorgeous!

Below is a super cute swap card I received from my friend Amy Storrie.

She used the Lighter Than Air designer paper, Highland Heather, Lemon Lolly, Gray and White. That adorable scalloped border from the Basic Borders dies adds so much!  I just love it!

  Last weekend we held our monthly Team swap and Lori made this super cute card.

  It's a vertical book binding card fold.  I love how this fold allows you to show off so much fun products like the DSP and the embossing folder. Her turtle & balloon are fussy cut from the Turtle-y Cute DSP.

  She used the Turtle-y Cute suite seen here. So many fun elements! Unfortunately the Turtle Textures embossing folder is currently unavailable.

  Sharon made this super fun card for our May Team swap. She used all 5 new In Colors!

  Save

  The circle die-cuts are from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.  These dies are a 'must have' in my opinion.  I love how she used them as the focal point of her card.  She was inspired by a purchased card she received and is using this card to introduce the new in colors to her customers.  She used the Plaster Painting embossing folder on the White layer. 

  She added even more dies to the inside!  

  Save

  ~~~

  Next is a pretty card made by Marla. She chose to feature the Beautiful Gallery suite seen here.  

  Save

  She die-cut the pretty leaves with the Beautiful Motifs dies seen here. These dies are pretty special as some of them only cut out partially which allows for some neat effects. 

  Then she cut a frame from the Gallery Blooms dies seen here.  Once she added the Secret Sea frame over the Cloud Cover die-cut she pulled a few of the leaves to the front, over the frame edge.  Genius!  

  The designer papers are from the Beautiful Gallery 6 X 6" DSP stack seen here.  And even her gems are from this suite! 

  Here's the inside view.  

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Card base – Vanilla – 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 1 1/2" & 4 1/4". 
  • DSP on the inside left 2 5/8" X 5 1/2", on the right 1 5/8" X 5 1/2" 
  • Cloud Cover layer is 2 1/2" X 4"
