This week our Fabulous Friday projects on the Sisters in Stamping blog are sneak peeks of Sale-a-Bration products that you'll be able to earn for FREE with a qualifying $50 order beginning January 24th. Are you excited?! I know I am!! These stamp sets, designer paper and ribbon/button packs are great... but you wouldn't expect anything less of Stampin' Up! would you?! If you didn't receive a gorgeous Sale-a-Bration brochure in the mail contact me - I have plenty! And be sure if you're local to Lynchburg that you join me at my Open House and Kick-Off the weekend of January 27th.
My card above was created using pool party, poppy parade and naturals white card stock - don't the colors just P-O-P? I love this color combination!! The main flower image is from the Fresh Vintage SAB stamp set and I colored it with various stampin' write markers - poppy parade, pool party, peach parfait and lucky limeade. The medallion stamped on the background is also from this beautiful stamp set and was stamped in poppy parade. Wondering how I got the large heart? I first stamped the floral image on my card stock and then cut it out using the new framelits for the Big Shot available in the Occasions Mini catalog. The beauty of the framelits is that you can stamp first and then see what you're cutting out - much like you can with our punches.
Not sure if you can see it, but I used one of the new border embossing folders across the bottom... these tiny hearts were a bit much for this card, so I flipped it over and used the debossed side. The fun bow is made out of the pool party seam binding ribbon that I tied in a fork bow and then just scrunched up the ends to give it the textured crinkle. I made my card an Anniversary card so I could leave it up on my display board a bit longer (good thinking, right?!).
For more sneak peeks, be sure and visit the Sisters in Stamping blog today after Noon EST. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!!!
Beautiful card. thanks for sharing a peek at the new products.
