FAREWELL SALE-A-BRATION 2014!

Last day of Sale-A-Bration! I can’t believe how fast these last 2 months have flown by.  I am a bit sad that Sale-A-Bration is over for another year.  I have really loved playing with these products.  Here is a quick card today to say Farewell to Sale-A-Bration – and to ‘Petal Parade’.  When I first saw this set the brochure I really wasn’t sure of it BUT I REALLY LOVE IT!!!  I am a bit sad to finish with this set.  I hope you have your set of ‘Petal Parade’ already or any of the other Sale-A-Bration products.

This card I shared in my ‘Stamp Spectacular’ Event the other week but I thought I would show you today as we say Farewell to Sale-A-Bration.

I love how you can multi-stamp the images and create your own Background paper or you can use the images on their own.  For this I have used Crisp Canteloupe, Summer Starfruit, Pistachio Pudding and Coastal Cabana.  The sentiment is from ‘Remembering Your Birthday’.  I have used the Scallop Tag Topper Punch and layered the sentiment.  The Whisper White card was 3.5cm wide (I think) and the Summer Starfruit was 4cm. (Something like that).  Place the card in the punch and look through the window underneath to line it up evenly.

So, today is the last day.  Email or phone me with your order.  You can choose one Sale-A-Bration gift with every $90 order  OR head to my store here and place your order.

OK, I have to run.  Have a Happy Day 🙂

FRESHLY MADE ‘PETAL PARADE’

It has been such a long time since I have done a challenge.  That is one thing I want to do more of this year.  So this week I have made a card for the ‘Freshly Made’ Sketch Challenge.  Here is the sketch and you can check all the details on their site here.

FMS Final 128-001

This is the card I have created for it.

I wanted to use the arrows from the set ‘Petal Parade’ as there is only just over one week left of Sale-A-Bration for me to use this set.  I was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest.

The arrows were stamped in Tangerine Tango, Tempting Turquoise, Daffodil Delight and Rich Razzleberry.  One bonus of using clear stamps is you can see where you are stamping them to line them up.  It doesn’t matter if you go a bit of course!!  I mounted this piece on a piece of Tangerine Tango and wrapped around some Whisper White Bakers Twine.  Then this was layered on to a Smoky Slate card base.

I wanted to play around with the ‘Just Sayin’ set too.  I stamped and cut the “Hey There” with the Word Bubble Framelits.  I wanted a “Happy Birthday” saying though.  So, I used a Black Marker to colour one of the other Framelits and then used the Marker to colour part of the greeting from a stamp in ‘Remembering Your Birthday’ set.  I could carefully stamp inside the bubble.  I then cut it out using the Framelit.  I was quite pleased with the end result.  These were raised up off the card with Dimensionals.

I think this is quite a versatile sketch to work with so why not have a play yourself.

See you next time,

Jenny

PETAL PARADE GIFT BAG!

I wanted to show you a little gift bag I have been making at my workshops this month. They are so easy to make and gotta love the Sweet Sorbet DSP!!!

You can make these too.  Just head to Ronda’s blog here and and she will show you how.

To create the label on the front I have stamped Whisper White cardstock firstly with the greeting from ‘Simply Sketched’ and then stamped randomly in Pool Party, Crisp Canteloupe and Summer Starfruit using Petal Parade. You make the enclosure with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch and I have tied it off with Crisp Canteloupe Ruffled Ribbon.

I hope all is well where you are???  Have a good day 🙂
