Avant Garden

There are just 8 short days left before Sale-a-bration ends! So you’ll want to check out these lovely cards made with the Avant Garden stamp set (Sale-a-bration 143272)

This first card I made for my February thank yous. (Everyone who places an order with me gets a thank you card in the mail.)

I’m including a PDF HERE with measurements for this card for you so you can create them too!

And here is a lovely tone on tone card that Lorrie gave me. I love the way she used the Delicate Details set (Sale-a-bration 143314) to add interest and a little bit of bling with the Blushing Bride Sequin Trim (138400).

It’s quite striking in person, but so easy too since it is a monochromatic card! Great for the beginning stamper and experienced one too.

Swan Lake

Like swans? If so you’re going to like this wonderful little set found in the Occasions Catalog on page 53. This set not only contains charming images, but also has some wonderful sentiments. I was soooo excited when I won this set at On Stage in Atlanta last November after all who can resist the little ducklings? It reminds me of the days when my mother would all take us to Capital Court around Easter to see the decorations and the chicks and ducklings hatch. (If I remember correctly they were in an even bigger decorated egg of all things! Ah, well that was a long time ago…)

So today I’m sharing two cards that I received in my swap using this stamp set. This first card was given to me by Gina. I love the way she used our different patterns from the Brights Collection Paper Stack for this card.

The card swings open to  show you these cute little ducklings and sentiment.

And here is another card also done in Brights, but this time using the Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper (141630).

And here a couple more wonderful cards made with our FREE Sale-a-bration stamp sets.

This first one uses the So Very Much stamp set and the Carried Away Designer Series Paper. Deborah cut the little hot air balloons to add to the corner with the Night of Navy Solid Bakers Twine.

And this card for Lorrie uses the elegant set Delicate Details and also uses the Carried Away Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-bration choices.

It’s a lot of fun to see how the same product, this time Designer Series paper, can be used so many different ways.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Swan Lake (142974/142977)

Inks: Basic Black Archival Ink (140931) and Old Olive Classic Ink (126953)

Paper: Brights Collection Designer Series Paper Stack (138434), Old Olive (100702) and Whisper White Card Stock (100730)

Accessories: Watercolor Pencils (141709) and Blender Pen (102645)

And how about this cute little card that Sandy made using the Tasty Trucks stamp set (143300). And the bright colors are so much fun. Sandy used the  Sending Love Designer Series Paper Stack (142733) and Brights Collection Designer Series Paper Stack (138434) along with the Lucky Stars Embossing Folder (135817) to add some texture.

I’m not sure what it is about this little truck, but I fell in love with it immediately! And isn’t the Mini Paper Clip (1427666) too cute?

And this soft and lovely card uses the Avant Garden stamp set (143272) in addition to our yummy Very Vanilla 1/4″ Satin Ribbon (142794) found in the Occasions Catalog and the Petal Burst Embossing Folder (141493).

And finally another card that Lianna gave me uses the soft elegant Delicate Details stamp set (143314) I really like the way she used out In Colors to create this simply background for the card.

The sentiment is from our Tin of Cards stamp set (138946) which is one of my favorites since it covers all kinds of occasions! And did you notice our Stitched Shapes Framelits Die (145372)?
