Thanks a Bunch; a sneak peak of Sale-a-Bration


I joined several online swaps and challenged myself to play with the new Sale-a-Bration stamp set called 'Looking At You'.  It's all about carrots!

Here's what I came up with:

I paired it with the new Sale-a-Bration paper called Dandy Designs.  It's 12 X 12" and has 48 sheets.  It's free with a $100 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion; January 5th – February 28th. 

When figuring out my card swap I came up with two different cards.  The left card is simple but shows off the images and DSP. The card below on the right is a fun fold card.  

The center panel on the right card above and the card below slides up and down; I call it a Vertical Slider card.  It's not attached to anything but 'catches' on both sides of the center gatefold design with three circles or squares adhered to the back.  It's so easy!  Here's a link to the video on how to make it.  

I decided to fussy cut one carrot on each card and pop it up with Stampin' Dimensionals.  It took a little time to do 22 of them, but worth it in my opinion.  

Here's a photo of all 22 cards I made for my swap.  I love the colors for the carrots – Mango Melody & Granny Apple Green – I think they're perfect for them.  

You can earn this stamp set free during Sale-a-Bration – January 5th – February 28th.  Any $50 order and it's yours!  Stay tuned for more sneak peaks this week.

Below is a video tutorial with another version of the vertical slider card:

  • Fresh, new color combination with Inked &Tiled – fun fold with video tutorial too


    I've been working double time getting ready to leave for our Norway cruise – this year's incentive trip with Stampin' Up!  I'm thrilled to go on this year's trip with my husband.  He's a fabulous traveling partner! 

    Depending on WIFI, I hope to share photos on Facebook and Instagram while we're gone.

    "Fewer than 1% of Stampin’ Up!’s demonstrators worldwide achieve this trip."

    I'm not usually a Subtles or Neutrals kind of gal but I sure love this beautiful color combination!  It's Gray Granite, Petal Pink with a bit of our new Pebbled Path.  

    What do you think?  I haven't Gray Granite often because I never found a color to pair it with.  But Pebbled Path is gorgeous and among the same color tones. And add Petal Pink and it's beautiful!  

    I stamped the large leaf image repeatedly on the Gray Granite layer. The greeting is on a white die-cut from the Timeless Arrangements dies. I added a few of the pretty die-cuts under the greeting before layering a folded piece of ribbon (Ribbon Duo Combo Pack) and then to the punched & textured Petal Pink circle.  

    My card is an easy Z-fold – 4 1/4" X 11" card base scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2".  

    I added lots of texture with the Timeless Arrangements dies.  The pretty 'Hello' greeting is from the new Layering Leaves stamp set. It's a new favorite and I LOVE that it matches the Bough punch!  See it here.

    Isn't it a beautiful set? 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 4 ¼” X 11” score at 2 ¾” & 5 ½”
    • Earthen Elegance DSP front 2 ¾” X 4”
    • Gray Granite 4” X 3”
    • Petal Pink 3 ¼” X 4 ¼”,  circle 2 ¾”
    • White inside 5” X 3 ¾”

  • Cheerful Daisies card; perfect for Springtime!


    I'm excited to share this pretty card with you. We made it at my May card clubs. It features the Cheerful Daisy bundle.  

    I absolutely love the colors!  I chose Lemon Lolly, Garden Green, white and the new Azure Afternoon.  I think the blue washed layer from the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper shows off the white & yellow daisies perfectly.  

    Here's how we finished the inside: 

    I sponged extra yellow on the Lemon Lolly daisy centers before adding the White die-cut over them. Here's  a photo of the dies  display I made: I did not add the separate individual daisies that fir over the large yellow die-cut below.  On my card they're white.

    The ribbon wraps all around the card front and ties on the far left.  The greeting covers the knot so you see mostly the ends. 

    Check out that amazing, detailed greenery die-cut!  It even comes out of the die easily.  Love it!  


    See the Cheerful Daisies bundle here; I think it's wonderful!  Best daisy set we've had for awhile.

  • Quick cards with just ONE sheet of the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper!


    The Fresh as a Daisy designer paper seen here is filled with pretty daisy prints and soft washes of colors – many are our newest In Colors and Core colors! 

    Here are the 4 cards I made from just one sheet!

    This one sheet has a bunch of printed, blocked patterns ready to make fast cards with.  

    One of my favorites is this one; featuring a pretty bouquet of white daisies on our new Bubble Bath pink color. 

    I added a strip of White card stock below, ribbon, a greeting and a pretty foliage die-cut which are both from the Cheerful Daisies bundle. 

    I LOVE this one!  Again, white daisies on a washed background. I paired this piece over a strip of Early Espresso cardstock on a Lemon Lolly card base.  I heat embossed the greeting in White on the die-cut in the Cheerful Daisies bundle. White twine finished it off! 

    What a gorgeous scenic background this is!  I dd nothing to it but stamp the stems & leaves and added the die-cut daisies, greeting and gems.  The colors are Copper Clay with Crushed Curry. 

    Lastly is this pretty triple-panel card in Azure Afternoon with Copper Clay.  I cut the daisy panel into three pieces measuring  1 5/8" X 4" tall. 

    Again I heat embossed the greeting in White embossing powder onto a piece of Copper Clay card stock. I added a die-cut daisy to the side. 

    I'm featuring this pretty paper in one of my May card kits to go. I have a limited supply of them so grab yours while you can.  See it here.  

    Which one of these is your favorite?
