But remember these Sale-a-Bration items are only available while supplies last. Already they are out of TWO choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog. The Rings of Love 12" DSP and the Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes. So if you have something from the SAB catalog on your wish list; get it soon!

What an amazing scene Amanda created here! So many details! I especially appreciate that she colored her hippo in Pool Party; who says they have to be gray?

Her background is made with the Rays of Light stamp seen here. The rest is all Sale-a-Bration items. Her colors include Pool Party, White, Crumb Cake & Crushed Curry

She stamped the greeting from Amazing Phrases and fussy cut it, placing it between 'waves'. She added Wink of Stella to her water. The little splashes of water & the life preserver truly make this scene complete!

One of my favorites was made by Gwen. The way she added ribbon for a 'towel' on the silver/metal tub is genius!!

Kelly created a cute scene mostly with the Hippo dies. Her colors are Smoky Slate, Real Red & Balmy Blue. The little water splash die-cuts add motion to the scene!

Mary, one of my Flowerbug team members, made this cute card for her Card Club this month. She used a blending Brush with Flirty Flamingo ink for a soft background. The lights and bow at the top are from the Tree Lot dies in the Sale-a-Bration catalog. See them here.

This cute card was made by Amy Storrie. I love the sunglasses! The other neat thing she did was to use the Hippo dies along with the Stitched Circle in the Beautiful Shapes dies so they match up perfectly! Her Designer Paper is the Cottage Gingham in the Holiday catalog.

You can see the Hippest Hippos stamp set here and the Hippo dies here. Get them both free with a $100 online order and you'll also receive my free July cards kit! Offer good through Saturday, July 30th.

New Catalog Party display pictures!

January 10, 2023

I held my new catalog party on Saturday showcasing the Spring & Sale-a-Bration products. It was so fun to have my customers/friends stop in to see everything & visit.

Here are a few photos of my displays of new 2023 Spring Catalog products:

Above you can see the Delicate Desert and Enjoy the Journey designer paper. Below is the Country Floral Lane designer paper; wonderful for Valentines.

Save

Above you can also see the Country Gingham 6" designer paper and lots of swaps featuring this Country Floral Lane suite.

I always join a bunch of swaps so I can get a bunch of samples so I can create display boards like this one:

I wish the pictures were a little clearer for you but there was some reflection on the clear envelopes covering each card.

Save

Below are photos of quite a few of our new Designer Paper; the titles of each are shown in the photo.

Save

Below are swap cards featuring the Regency Park Suite seen here; one of my favorites!

Keep in mind I didn't make all of these cards. I did make that 'many' but received different cards back for the swaps I sent in. I love swapping!!

I'll share more products & swaps featuring Sale-a-Bration tomorrow.

Sentimental Park with Country Gingham DSP card swap

January 9, 2023
I always join a bunch of online swaps with each new catalog. It's so much easier to make a bunch of one card than it is to make one of several different cards for my display boards.

Here's one I made with the Sentimental Park bundle seen here.

Save

I chose to use the Country Gingham 6 X 6" designer paper pack; it has multiple gingham patterns in just a few colors. I added White & Blushing Bride to it.

Notice that pretty white die-cut for the greeting; it has attached floral design on opposing corners for some pretty detail. There are two sizes of this type of die in this bundle and one without the side details. This one fits inside the largest one; the floral detail has slits on the inside to allow the smooth die-cut to fit right in!

Save

The Blushing Bride oval is from the Framed Florets dies. The pretty texture on the White banner is done with the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here; also new in the Spring catalog.

Save

My measurements are simple:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- DSP 2" X 4"
- White banner strip 1 1/4" X 5"
Notice the alternate print I used on some of the swaps below; I love having a few choices in similar patterns.

Save

I'll share some photos of my new catalog party from Saturday later this week. Stop back in!
