• Easy card design; get two cards with one cut with the So Very Vellum Specialty paper

  March 10, 2020

  ---

  The 2nd set of Sale-a-Bration products are here!  There are 5 new items you can choose from that you get FREE with a $50 – $100 order from now through March 31st.  Honestly I am guessing the Vellum and Flowering Foils papers might sell out before March is over. 

   

  I made these quick cards with the pretty textured So Very Vellum and the Eyelet Lace embossing folder in the annual catalog. 

  
  

  To get two pieces from each quarter sized sheet of vellum see the measurements and tips are below.

  
  

  

  The colors are Pool Party, Soft Sea Foam and Purple Posy which are the colors this specialty vellum comes in.  It has a dotted grid of texture on each sheet!  This specialty vellum is one of the new FREE choices with any $50 order in March. See it here. 

  Tips:

  1. Cut one piece of vellum measuring 4" X 5 1/4".  Make a mark at 1 1/2" from the upper left and 1 1/2" from the lower right and cut each piece in half at a diagonal.  You'll have 2 perfect diagonal pieces for your cards.  
  2. Adhere the vellum to the White 4" X 5 1/4" card base using liquid glue; I prefer Multipurpose adhesive.  I added a thin line under the dots on the vellum and it doesn't show at all!  
  3. The die-cuts are from the Stitched So Sweetly dies; I did add a scalloped 1 1/8" circle punch between the two layers and sponged the White pieces. 
  4. The greetings are from the So Sentimental stamp set; it's a bundle with the dies at a 10% savings.  See it here.

• Peaceful Poppies cards kit to go; RSVP by March 19th!

  March 9, 2020

  ---

  The cards kit to go features the Peaceful Poppies designer paper. It's full of hand painted blooms accented by watercolor effects all inspired by fields of poppies.   

  The 5 designs include two unique fun fold cards which are easy to make yet special for the recipient. 

   

  
  

   

  This kit to go includes $20 in actual product (before tax & shipping).  You're getting the 10 cards pre-cut kit for just $5!  See those beautiful die-cuts and trim pieces? They are included in my kits!  I do the time consuming work for you so you can enjoy the fun of just stamping and assembly. 

  *If you like pre-cut card kits you will LOVE my monthly kits to go!  Here are some comments from my subscribers:

  – I made all the cards, and had a great time.  I loved all the different folds and color choices.  Thanks for making my week!

  – Your directions are always so easy to follow and your projects are unique.

  – I just received the January card kit and love it!

  – I loved these cards; they were so fun to make. 

  Here's one of the fun-fold cards in this month's kit.  It has a pocket for your greeting and/or a gift card if you'd like to add one.

   

  
  

   

  I did use the poppy image from the Painted Poppies set in the card above. 

  For my greetings I used the Peaceful Moments stamp set seen below.  If you add it on you will get a free Sale-a-Bration choice with your kit. Or choose the Peaceful Moments bundle  and earn you a free SAB choice. See your free choices here.

  The Painted Poppies bundle is not available right now but should be back mid April! Both of these bundles coordinate together beautifully and are part of the Peaceful Poppies suite on pages 24-27 in the mini catalog.

   

   

    

  The cards kit to go includes the following:

  – a pre-cut cards kit for 10 cards; including die-cuts and many punched pieces

  – Free pdf instructions with photos, measurements (to make more), step by step instructions and a supplies list

  – 1/2 package of the 12 X 12" Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper

  – 1 full package of the Peaceful Poppies sequins

  – 3 spools of colored Baker's twine in Poppy Parade, Black and Garden Green

  **You have through March 19th to RSVP for this kit.  It's $28 for locals and $36 for long distance and includes Priority Shipping.

   

  If you'd like to add on the Peaceful Moments stamp set or the bundle (seen above) please let me know.  If you do add it on, (or anything else of $30 or more) I will combine shipping AND you get a free Sale-a-Bration choice! See the free items here. 

   

  ***Be sure to RSVP by the 19th to get your kit! 

   

  It's just $28 for locals and $36 for long distance people with Priority Shipping. Kits should be mailed out at the end of March and the pdf tutorial is emailed.
