Sale-a-bration’s Dance with Me!

Posted on by
Reply

Dancing is a great time. I fell in love with it when our teacher introduced all different kinds of line dancing and square dancing one year. A way to express yourself, celebrate, have fun, and yes get a bit of exercise at the same time.

And with ballroom dancing becoming very popular the Dance with Me stamp set (Sale-a-bration 164957) is right on trend too.

Check out this lovely card that has been created with the set.

This card uses Stampin’ Blends to create a bright focal point and our Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper (164607) to add a pop of soft color to the card front. Another fun Sale-a-bration product, the Purple Adhesive Backed Sequins (Sale-a-bration 164970) was used to add some shine and texture around the sentiment.

Did you know that Sale-a-bration ends February 28th? That’s only about 2 weeks left that you can place a qualifying order and earn FREE products. Did you know for every $60 you can choose a product? It’s a great time of year to get some things you’ve been wanting or stock up on your favorite products and adheresive.

There is also another great way to take advantage of Sale-a-bration – build your own kit! When you join my team during Sale-a-bration you can add additional product and get FREE shipping on your kit! A great way to save since you’ll get a 20% discount on your future orders too!

Fun with Sale-a-bration’s Heart Shaped Bundle

Posted on by

Today’s cards use the Sale-a-bration option, Heart Shaped Bundle (Sale-a-bration 164953) that includes a stamp set and dies.

With Valentine’s and weddings coming up it is a wonderful choice when deciding on your FREE Sale-a-bration item.

This first card is a sweet little purse type card that has been created in our In Color, Pretty in Pink.

This little purse has lots of texture since it uses the Dotted Circle 3d Embossing Folder (163789) for the purse itself and the lovely Pretty in Pink 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon (163784) for the handle. The little clasp that holds it shut are 2 of the die cut pieces. Isn’t the sweet gold flower cut from our Gold Foil Sheets (132622) and Antique Pearls (164679) a nice touch?

Open the purse and you’ll see another cute little flower

and the sentiment along with the Country Lace Designer Series Paper (163415) that pulls the colors together.

And the last card I’m sharing with you today is a stand up card with a simple box on the left.

It uses our Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 164944) and adds a pop of gold with our Adhesive Backed Heart Sequins (Online Exclusive 164920). This card is a little shorter than normal since it has the box portion, so it is only 5 inches long.

But it is super simple to create the box since the panel buts right up to the score line. Simply score the 11″ x 4 1/4″ base at 1 1/2, 3, 4 1/2 and 6 and decorate! And it folds flat too so it is great for mailing as it fits into our standard envelope.

Did you know that we have some NEW options for Sale-a-bration? Check out this flyer that shows you them.

Just a couple of things to note about these FREE Sale-a-bration products.

  • You must use the item numbers on the flyer in order to redeem these products as Sale-A-Bration items. These products have different item numbers in the catalog, which won’t register as part of Sale-A-Bration.
  • If these two kits being offered as Sale-a-bration products sell out they won’t be returning and will be discontinued.

It’s a Heart Shaped Sale-a-bration

Posted on by

Have you seen the FREE products that you can earn during Sale-a-bration? There is a great Bundle, Heart Shaped Bundle (Sale-a-bration 164953) that you can earn that includes a lovely detailed heart wreath and some wonderful sentiments that you can use year round or for even for Valentine’s Day.

Check out these lovely cards using this Bundle of products you can earn for FREE with a qualifying order during Sale-a-bration. This first card uses a simple Garden Green die cut image and a fun textured background embossed with the Starstruck Embossing Folder (Sale-a-bration 164972).

A strip of our Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper (164591) creates interest behind the delicate heart and the Purple Adhesive Backed Sequins (Sale-a-bration 164970) and the Party Dots (164602) add a bit of texture and shine to the card. And how about this next card with the shimmer of gold?

This thank you card uses our Gold Foil Sheets (132622) for the wreath and Gold 1 1/2″ Open Weave Ribbon (165715) to add some elegance. The little flower has been cut from Pretty In Pink card stock and has another touch of gold for the center since it uses our Tinsel Gems Four Pack (161623). And texture has been added with both the Stylish Shapes Dies (159183) and Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder (163483).

And for today’s final card we have a soft an lovely card that the lovely Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper, Bloom Impressions (Sale-a-bration 164944) also.

The heart has been stamped on the circle from the Spotlight on Nature Dies (163580) and the little flower centers are the Itty Bitty Bokeh Mix Embellishments (164618). This embellishment is just beautiful with it’s iridescent shine. The image just doesn’t do them justice.

Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a card using one of our Online Exclusive Bundles Umbrella Days.

Fun Resist Technique & the Detailed Dogwoods

Posted on by

The end of Sale-a-bration is coming quickly on Thursday, February 29th

and that means our Free exclusive products will be gone along with the opportunity of joining my Team and getting the exclusive Glass Matt as part of your Kit

So today I thought I’d share a couple more cards with you using the Detailed Dogwood stamp set (Sale-a-bration 162953) and a quick and easy emboss resist technique.

I can remember the first time I saw this technique and it seemed like magic to me. Our image has been stamped in VersaMark and heat embossed with the White Embossing Powder. Additional stamping has been added to the background and then ink has been brushed on top of that. A paper towel is then used to wipe off the ink on the dogwood image. Voila! the image reappears easily since the embossing powder resists any of the ink. So simple but wow! Can you remember seeing a technique that blew you away the first time you saw it? Simple things like this make stamping so much fun!

And these next card uses our lovely Pebbled Path and Fresh Freesia for the color pallet of the next card.

I don’t know about you but I fell in love with Pebbled Path the first time I saw it. Such a great color that is so versatile. The image has been die cut using our Deckled Rectangle Dies (159173) to add a bit of texture. The lovely Pebbled Path 3/8″ Textured Ribbon (161632) and Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems (161288) add a bit of shine and elegance to the project.

So pretty and here in North Georgia the dogwoods dot our woodlands and landscapes during the spring. A reminder of renewal.

Jungle Pals Birthday Card Tutorial

Posted on by

I immediately fell in love with the cute little animals from the Jungle Pals Stamp Set (Sale-a-bration 162950)

and couldn’t resist creating some bright and bold cards using this Sale-a-bration product. The fact you can also earn the coordinating dies makes it very versatile.

But today’s card is quick and easy since it uses simple stamping.

I’ve used the Subtles Designer Series Paper (161644) and the bold Calypso Coral stripe pattern. Did some simple coloring with my Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends (154881) and voila! A great birthday card for young and old.

Want to see how I created this card? Check out my video tutorial and the PDF below with a complete supply list, measurements, and step by step directions.

Flight & Airy Note Card Tutorial

Posted on by

If you love the Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper, Flight & Airy you’ll enjoy today’s card.

The Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 162977) set the color pallet for this soft and feminine note card. And it’s quick and easy to whip up a number of these cards with just one pack of the FREE paper too. I just love the Go To Greetings Stamp set (158763) with it’s lovely flowing script and different size sentiments. It’s a great stamp set to have in your arsenal of basic stamps whether you are new to stamping or a long time stamper sets like this are great.

And another great basic is our Nested Essentials Dies (161597) that I’ve used for this card since it has basic shapes in multiple sizes.

I’ve whipped up a quick video tutorial for you today along with the PDF that has a complete supply list, measurements, and more!
