Sale-A-Bration Ends 31st March

Sale-A-Bration is almost over, this month is your last chance to qualify for exclusive FREE stamp sets. 

We made this card in a recent class using 'Punch Bunch' from the Sale-A-Bration brochure - each stamp in the set co-ordinates with a Stampin' Up! punch.

For this card I used the scallop square stamp and punch. I actually cased the idea from Shelli's blog. It's a really versatile design as it's great for male or female cards - just change the colours to suit.

The central strip has been crimped to add some texture and we used the 'Rock & Roll' technique to add both shades of blue around the edges of the scallop square.

Here's another version of the card I made using different colours. This one is destined for my cousin who is turning 18, so I added the numbers using my Big Shot and Simple Numbers Die.



Here's yet another brayered card. This time I embossed the daisies from Upsy Daisy using Concord Crush ink and clear embossing powder. I then brayered opposit corners with green and blue. I layered the image onto Concord Crush, Whisper White and Pear Pizzazz cardstock.

Double the Treats

Yum... there's nothing better that a treat box that already contains treats!

I made this box using a Sweet Treats Cup, with a sliding door on the inside so you can enjoy the treats without destroying the box.

I used the Medallion stamp and Cute & Curly set and Elegant Soiree Designer Series Paper, all finished off with layers of punches and some Hodgepodge Hardware.

Choo Choo!

We made this card quite a while ago in a Quick Cards Class, but have only just got around to blogging it.

This was a really quick but cute card. I've used my 'Choo Choo' set and 'Right On Track' Wheel. I've used these on several cards but also have a great 12x12 layout in my head, so look out for it!

Digger Crazy

This is a brithday card I made for a little boy who is digger crazy. As I didn't have an appropriate stamp set I printed the image onto Whisper White cardstock from my computer.

I also used my new Simple Numbers Die with my Big Shot and the 'Rough Type' Alphabet from the current Mini Catalogue.

Colours are Real Red, Basic Gray and Whisper White.

Here's another example of brayering. This is a card we made in one of my Techniques classes recently.

I used 'Lovely as a Tree', which has turned out to be such a flexible set.

I layeder the main image onto Concord Crush cardstock and then onto Whisper White, which I embellished using my Scallop Trim Edge and Scallop Trim Corner Punch.

Free is Good!

Don't you just love freebies?! I used my new 'Bliss' set, which was free as part of Sale-A-Bration. I love this set and already have heaps of ideas for it.
This card was inspired by one given to me by Rachael Knight - check out her blog
