Sale-a-bration – the final countdown!!!

Hi – I’m back with the final card we made at my morning March class.  This is my favourite out of them all.

My camera really hasn’t picked up the gorgeous Calypso Coral colour very well.  I should have waited for natural light to take the photos!

This card uses the Elementary Elegance stamp set which co-ordinates with the Curly Label Punch.  The frame stamp has various elements to it, including a crown, butterfly, bird and key.  The set also includes a little single stamp of each of these things!The base here is Calypso Coral, with a layer of Soft Suede.  The Very Vanilla card has been stamped with the frame image in Calypso Coral ink, and sponge daubed around the edge with Soft Suede ink.  The bottom section of the card is layered with some Everyday Enchantment DSP, a strip of Calypso Coral punched with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, and also some of the lush Crochet Trim Ribbon.

The sentiment was stamped in Soft Suede ink onto Very Vanilla card and punched with the Curly Label punch, then daubed around the edges before being added to the card with Dimensionals.  Lastly a flutter of butterflies were added across the card.Have you got all of the lovely sets that have been available during Sale-a-bration?  No………  well there’s only a few days left to get those £45 order in!

More Sale-a-bration

I have a couple more cards to share with you today :o)

The first cards uses the Sprinkled Expression stamp set.  I have stamped the star image in Versamark Ink and added Clear Embossing Powder over the top.  Once heat set I have then used Peach Parfait ink and sponge daubed all over.  This is mounted onto a 2 3/8 Scallop Circle of Poppy Parade.  The base is Poppy Parade, layered with Soft Suede and then three strips of Everyday Enchantment DSP.  The sentiment is stamped in Poppy Parade ink and mounted onto a 1 3/8 Circle of Poppy Parade card.

The next card uses the gorgeous Fresh Vintage stamp set, along with one of the sentiments in the Elementary Elegance set.  The card starts of with a Poppy Parade base and a Pool Party layer.  I’ve added some Everyday Enchantment DSP and used the 1/2” Circle Punch to bite into the corners where I’ve then added a Basic Pearl.  The tag was cut from Very Vanilla card and sponge daubed with Soft Suede ink.  I used markers to colour the image, and underlined it with the wavy image in Poppy Parade ink, with the sentiment in Soft Suede to one side.  Lastly I punched a hole and added some Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon.

Hi, I really hope everyone has had a fab weekend…….. it’s whizzed by!

I wanted to do a quick post to share a few more cards I made at Cate’s baggie book day a few weeks ago.

The lighting wasn’t great when I took these photos unfortunately.  Both cards are made with the Elementary Elegance stamp set.  The first card uses some of the gorgeous In Colours for 2011/2012.  The banner is a great way to get a ribbon effect without ribbon.  The sentiment has been stamped separately and punched with the Curly Label Punch, then popped onto the card with Dimensionals.

The second card is very pink and girly.  Lots of the others girls at the craft day were putting 18 and 21 on there cards, and I think a few of them thought I’d put my numbers the wrong way round!  However, if I remember, I will use this card for my nieces 12th birthday in June.  Again the centre sections was punched out and popped up with Dimensionals.  The colour scheme is Rich Razzleberry and Pink Pirouette.

Right, off to finish tidying my craft room after spending this afternoon making a mess.  Needless to say I didn’t get as much done as I needed to, so I’ll be hot-footing it in there tomorrow after work. 

   

Sale-a-bration Showcase

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a fabulous week!

Over the next few days I am going to share with you a number of projects using the Sale-a-bration stamp sets and Designer papers.  I was very lucky to take part in a craft day with a number of other members of the Blue Angels – my stampin up nanna Cate’s team!!!  We spent the day making four cards with each of the four stamp sets, so 16 cards in all…………….

Here are just a few of the cards made with one of my favourite sets – Elementary Elegance

The first is card is using one of the sentiments from this set which has been stamped inside the Designer Frame Embossed Oval.  A bit of sponge daubing, tearing, some pearls, a strip of SAB Designer Paper trimmed into a banner and a layer of Marina Mist card embossed with Perfect Polka Dots, all on a Crumb Cake base and voila!!!!!

 

This is a little square card with a Pumpkin Pie base.  The frame image has been stamped on Whisper White in Soft Suede, then stuck to a Night of Navy layer before punching out the centre with the Curly Label Punch.  The Hello image was stamped and cut into a banner, then the Crown image was stamped in Night of Navy and cut out to adorn the sentiment.

If you would like to get your hands on this lovely stamp set then you simply need to select products from the Main Idea Book & Catalogue and/or the Spring Mini Catalogue amounting to £45……..  And with so much to choose from, maybe you’ll end up needing to select two free sets – you get one for each £45 you spend after all!
