Sale-a-Bration starts today!!! Paper Blooms Descending Layers technique


From today through February 28th you can earn free product with your Stampin' Up! orders!  For every $50 or $00 you spend you can choose a free item.  Check it out here.

The new Mini Cut & Emboss machine is now available!  And when you purchase it you can choose a free SAB item too!

It's small, light weight and fits on your work surface so nicely!  It also fits many of our dies and you can see which ones by the special icon in the catalogs. 

This cute machine has a compact footprint for easy storage and travel. The 3-1/2" (8.9 cm) platform works with many of Stampin' Up!'s smaller dies and embossing folders. Includes 1 Mini Base Plate, 2 Mini Cutting Plates, 1 Mini Embossing Plate, and 1 Mini 3D Embossing Plate

Are you enjoying these sneak peaks from the new 2021 Stampin' Up! Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs?  It's always fun to play with brand new products.  Today I'm playing with new 2021 Sale-a-Bration (or SAB) items.  

The Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper is full of flowers and fun color combos!  I decided to use my Stitched Rectangle dies to create this layered effect.  If you want to watch a video on how to do this click here. 

I used the third smallest and the third largest die in the Stitched Rectangles set.  It looks like I wasted a ton of paper but the entire card is made with one piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" X 4".  It's so cool!  

Navy layers are:

  • Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Smallest rectangle is 3 3/8" X 2", middle is 4 1/2" X 3 1/8" 

You might wonder what I used for the greeting.  The White piece is a new die from the Potted Succulent dies seen here. The Rococo Rose layers are punched pieces; 2 of them.  I used a 1" X 3 3/4" strip and the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the ends.  The center piece is the Story Label punch.  The pearls on the label are the NEW Pastel Pearls on page 19 of the new Spring Catalog seen here. 

Thanks for stopping in today; stay tuned for more projects tomorrow!

  • Honey Bee & Little Ladybug; choice!


    I received this gorgeous swap card from my friend Diana Gibbs. I just love it!  

    Sweet and simple; but a big wow in my opinion.  The bees are colored with Blends markers in Seaside Spray and Mango Melody plus a little Wink of Stella on the wings.

    That pretty Golden Honey Specialty designer paper is one of the FREE choices in our Sale-a-Bration catalog right now.

    Get it free with any $50 order through March. But beware that some items do not last through the promotion; they've been known to run out of some items before the promotion ends. 

    The circles are 1 3/4" and the bees are die-cut using the Detailed Bee Dies.  These come in a bundle with the stamp set at 10% off.  See them here.   It pairs beautifully with the Golden Honey designer paper above.

    My friend Judith had a workshop this weekend and she loves the Little Ladybug stamp set so I gave them a choice of two cards.  She was so excited to earn this stamp set FREE with her workshop order. 

    Remember that I'm giving away one set in January!  Everyone who places an online order from me will be entered in the drawing. 

    I used a Light Flirty Flamingo Blends marker and the Wink of Stella and So Saffron ink for the belly. A bit of Petal Pink for the faces and sponging on the circles as well.  We added Gold pearls for an accent which pairs nicely with the Golden Honey specialty DSP. 

    The card stock measures 4" X 5 1/4" white, DSP is 1 7/8" X 5" and the Black is 2" X 5".  The circles here are 3/4", 1 1/2" and 1 3/4" in size. 

    Below you can see how we stamped the inside of the card.  

    Which one would you choose to make? 

    Besides Sale-a-Bration there are three more January Specials just for you!

  • Little Ladybug; get it FREE


    Here's the other card we made at my January Flowerbug's Team Meeting featuring the Little Ladybug stamp set: 

    I thought the Friendly Silhouettes cat tails/grass die-cut would work well with this set.  See the little ladybugs behind the grass?  I did trim off the 'cattails' so it's just grass here.  

    This Little Ladybug stamp set is free with any $300 order. Gather some friends together for a book party!  Or have your own party and get ALL of the hostess benefits. 

    Did you know if you order $300 you'll get the following:

    1. $36 in free product of your choice
    2. 6 FREE Sale-a-Bration choices! 
    3. The Little Ladybug stamp set; free!
    4. You're over half way to a free stamp set from me with my Buyer Brownie Points rewards program; see that here.

  • Little Ladybug Spinner Card!!


    This fabulous spinner card was made by my friend Susie Wood; she sent one to me as we like to make cards for each other to share with our customers.  I love her style so much.  Visit her blog here. 

    Isn't it adorable?!  It's classic Red, Black & White; perfect for the Ladybug set. The center circles are 1 3/4" and 2" in size. The Black piece is 4" X 3 1/4" in size and that circular opening is 2 3/8" using the Circles Collection dies and punches.

    This cute stamp set is FREE with any $300 order placed during Sale-a-Bration; January through March 2020.  If you don't think you can swing that large of an order I have a few suggestions for you. 

    1. Have a workshop/party and invite your friends. Their orders will add up so you can earn it free!
    2. Place one big order (if you can). You'll get 6 free $50 Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and earn $36 in free hostess benefits. 
    3. Have a book party; inviting your fellow stamping friends to order. I can open a host code so all of the orders can be shipped to each person's ome. Sale-a-Bration is a great time to order!  Free products for each $50 you spend.
    4. Purchase the starter kit and join as a Demonstrator!  Then you get 20% off your $300 order so you're really spending just $240 to earn this set!  Plus you would get 6 free Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and $36 in free hostess benefits. 

    All you need for a spinner card is a window, something to spin and some string or thread.  She used our Silver metallic thread here.  The window is made with our Circles Collection Framelits. 

    Watch the FB live replay video below to see how it's done. 

    You might wonder where the black polka dots came from. She used a sponge dauber!  So easy!! 

    Below you can see both cards I demonstrated on my Facebook Live this week.  Click below to see it. Be sure to follow my page so you don't miss it each week on Tuesday's at 11 am CT.
