Sale-A-Bration Ends Today!

Hi Stampers!  Just a quick reminder that Sale-A-Bration (SAB) ends today.  This year there have been some AWESOME Sale-A-Bration products, so be sure to place your order today if you haven't already so you don't miss out.

One of the most popular SAB items this year is this gorgeous Designer Series Paper (DSP), called Everyday Enchantment.  While wanting to share a project using this DSP, I also wanted to share a sneak peek of a brand new die that's coming up soon, the Petite Purse die!  How cute is this?!?  One of my weaknesses is a cute purse, and this little cutie is no exception :)  This die will be available soon - but be sure to get this DSP now so when you get this die you can make this adorable purse.

Easy Events Baby Card

Hi Stampers!  Today's post is a card we made at my Card Buffet last month.  How cute is this little duck?

The stamp set is from Easy Events, and the base of the card is Marina Mist with a Chocolate Chip layer and dotted ribbon.  For the embossed layer I used the Houndstooth Embossing Folder.  

 

We used Stampin Write Markers and Blender Pens to color the image.  The umbrella was stamped again, cut out and popped up with a Dimensional.

Masculine Birthday Card - French Foliage

Hi Stampers!  I'm usually "stumped" when it comes to making masculine cards.  You too?!?  Usually "nature related" stamps come to the rescue!  This card offers lots of detail for the guys, without all the "frilly" touches :)

Inspired by Kathy (Stamping Still) and Rita (Rita's Creations)

This was one of my swaps for Milwaukee Regionals, thanks to Kathy and Rita for their inspiration!  I used Early Espresso and Naturals White card stock.  The stamp set is French Foliage.

 

I die-cut the banner from the Petal Cone Die and stamped my greeting.  Then simply added silver brads to the ends of the banner and popped up with some Dimensionals.

Fabulous Florets Sympathy Card

Hi Stampers!  We made this sympathy card at my last Card Buffet class -  however, this design could easily be used for birthday, thank you, thinking of you, etc., if you wanted to change up the sentiment. 

The floral images are from the stamp set is Fabulous Florets, and the sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  I used Crumb Cake card stock for the main card, and embossed a strip of Cherry Cobbler card stock using the Flower Garden Embossing Folder.

I used Crumb Cake Seam Binding, what a great color!  Crumb Cake has quickly become my favorite Neutral color :) 

Here's how we finished off the inside.  The sentiment on the inside is from the stamp set, Word Play.  This card was inspired by a swap I received a while back and there wasn't a name on the swap...so, if it was you please let me know so I can give you proper credit.
