I hope you enjoyed your Holiday!! For me it was very relaxing, but then I do not have children ,at least not the two legged variety 🙂 !
Today I am sharing the beautiful Sale-A-Bration Butterfly Designer Series Paper. All of the products, at least the majority, are new products from either Sale-A-Bration or the Occasions Catalog. You all should be receiving your new catalogs any day now. If you are in need of one, and do not currently have a demonstrator, please contact me. I would love to get one in the mail to you.

Thank you for visiting today. I have included the complete supply list at the bottom of the page.
I hope everyone is safe and well after the nasty weather of the weekend. We were very lucky and did not get the ice that was expected.
Today’s card is a quick and easy one that could be done with almost any stamp set and designer paper. I used the awesome Share What You Love Designer Series Paper. I really do love that paper!!
Enjoy Life, 148190
I did a different pairing of colors than I have done previously. I paired Coastal Cabana with Tranquil Tide. I was attempting to bring out the lighter / brighter blue in the DSP. The positioning of the sentiment is totally to show off the beautiful DSP. And I really like it in the corner, as opposed to centered. Not your normal positioning and I like that as well.
I hope you liked my quick and easy card. Please return tomorrow for a new project. All of the supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page.
Sorry I am late today. I was fighting with the Year End Closeout links. As you can tell if you have been following me for any length of time, I am not a whiz at computer technology!!! Yikes. But I hope the awesome sale prices will be worth the wait.
Another great thing is that you can now order the Stamparatus Carry Bag. I have had the icon at the bottom of the post for a few weeks now. Well the time is here. And it is really the perfect bag for your Stamparatus, plus other uses as well. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Now for today’s card. It is another Sneak Peek of the upcoming Sale-A-Bration stamp sets. Did the Blog Title give it away? Of course it did…. Frogs!!!
Animal Expedition DSP 146902
Aren’t the little frogs adorable? I believe they will be the same big hit that last year’s SAB Pandas were. The name of the stamp set is So Hoppy Together. I linked to the DSP, because the graph for the stamp set is not available yet. I will update once I can get that link.
BUT….do you see how wonderfully it pairs with the Animal Expedition DSP? There are several pieces in that pack of paper which pair beautifully with this set. Hint, Hint….
Thank you so much for stopping by this morning. I hope you will check back tomorrow. I will be on time in the morning.
Happiness is anytime spent with friends, at least to me anyway. So today’s card is a simple stamping ,#SimpleStamping, as Sara mentioned several times at OnStage. What makes this one seem so easy is the photopolymer stamp set Coffee Cafe. It is a favorite of mine that I hope stays around for quite some time.
Coffee Cafe, 143677
As I mentioned above, the photopolymer stamp set is so easy to line up the sentiment inside the cup outline. And it is just as easy to add the dollop of whipped topping on top. Yes, I realize this is more a dessert than a cup of coffee!! Isn’t that the best kind?
I tied together the Coffee Cafe stamp set from the annual catalog with a designer series paper from the Holiday catalog. I love mixing products. Also, all of the stamping is from the single stamp set. Sometimes I wonder if I confuse customers with multiple stamp sets. I like to occasionally show a “one stamp set” type card.
The picture doesn’t really do the heart in the center of coffee very clearly. I punched a Cherry Cobbler heart using the Cookie Cutter punch. I believe it is very fitting to match the hearts I added in the whipped topping.
Thank you very much for visiting today. I hope you enjoyed this quick #SimpleStamping card. Please come back tomorrow for a new project. As always, the complete supply list is at the bottom of the post.
One more thing……If you are interested in the Stamparatus carry bag, it is listed further down, you can begin ordering soon. I recommend ordering as soon as it is available as it is while supplies last.
Today’s card is a case of a wall decoration I saw on pinterest. That was a painting instead of a card. But I thought it would make a great card. The concept is nothing new, but the look of the fence was the inspiration and one I have not previously made.
Rooted In Nature Bundle, 148353
I mentioned above that I have made similar cards with a cut out that is raised above the stamped image. But I had not used a different type shape, like this leaf. I had not previously used the Wood Textures DSP either. I love the wooden fence look.
I added the die cut/stamped leaves in front of the tree as some added dimension. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with the final result. I hope you will give this a try using different shapes for the cut out.
The cut apart words are also a first for me. I am not sure why I spread them around the card, but when I tried with them all together, it just did not work for me. A day of difference!
The tree in the background is colored with Stampin’ Write Markers. I really hate that they cannot be ordered individually right now. I periodically add that to the idea box on the Stampin’ Up! website. Hopefully it will be an option in the future.
Thank you for stopping by. I will be back on Monday with a new project. I hope you will check in to see what it is. Here is wishing you a good weekend to come!
I apologize for not posting yesterday! I had way too much fun at the Stampin’ Up! Convention and was really dragging. I intended to post during the day , but ended up trying to clean the mess I had left getting ready for convention. Can you relate????
So, here is a cute and easy card I have made to thank a sweet friend.
P.S. You’re The Best, 146516
I did use the stamparatus for the wreath background. I began that section of the card with a totally different idea in mind. As I made the “wreath” I changed direction. Sometimes how my mind works is very strange! But I do like how the card turned out, so I guess it was an ok detour.
I have posted previously how to use the stamparatus to make a perfect wreath. You can see that post by clicking HERE. It is a great template to have on hand.
Thee are a variety of products on this card. I also went with a off-center layering. I like to do that occasionally, and especially with bright designer series papers. This is from the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper. I love the vibrant colors used in all of the sheets.
Thank you so much for visiting today. I will try to share some of the great items and swaps I received in the next week. Please return tomorrow as I will be participating in the Pals Blog Hop with Mary Fish.
The supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page.
