"Sale-a-bration" ends today ~ last look

Hi there, hope you are having a lovely Saturday.

Today I will be sharing the last lot of projects I've made using the exclusive products you can get for free as part of this years "Sale-a-bration" event.


These two cards are basically the same, the only real difference is that on the top card I used the "Postage Stamp" punch and on the bottom the "1 1/4" Square" punch.  The card blanks for these are 2/3rd of a sheet of A4 "Confetti Cream" cardstock folded in half.  Cards this size fit into a standard business envelope.



The next couple of cards are Easter cards, which I am waaaay behind on!


The "Everyday Enchantment" DSP is perfect for Easter projects.


On both of these cards I used the large image from "Creative Elements" stamp set as a background stamp.



This next card has a very simple colour palette being just Black, White & Red. This uses the "Fresh Vintage" stamp set from the "Sale-a-bration" collection.


Just to add some interest, I added a string of pearls to underline the sentiment and also on the centre of the butterfly that I cut out using "Beautiful Wings" embosslit and the "Everyday Enchantment" DSP.


... and finally,

A celebration card using the "Outlined Occasions" stamp set, which is another "Sale-a-bration" option.

Well I hope you have found some inspiration amongst these last few projects, I can honestly say that the products being offered for free as part of this years "Sale-a-bration" is outstanding and I'm sorry that they will no longer be available after today, so if you want to get your hands on, please don't delay and get in contact today as I would hate for anyone to be disappointed.  Remember, you can choose 1 item for every £45 spent

Mother's Day projects - No.2

Morning, hope you are well and you're able to find some time to be crafy this weekend!

Today is day 2 of my Mother's Day project ideas and today I have another card for you, but this one is defiantly very different looking to yesterdays.


As you can see, it is much more ornate, but it is just as simple to put together.  "Whisper White" for the card blank, with a layer of "Poppy Parade" then a layer of "Everyday Enchantment" DSP, which is just too gorgeous for words and I still can't believe that this is an free option as part of Stampin' Up's Sale-a-bration event.  I actaully had this much of the card put together for weeks, I liked the DSP so much that I didn't want to put anything over the top of it

Eventually I added the sentiment from the "Delightful Dozen" sentiment set, defiantly something for every occasion in that one, and added some butterflies cut out using "Beautiful Wings" embosslit, a couple of pearls on the butterflies and I was done.  As I say, a really simple card and a great layout that can be used again and again for all sorts of occasions and it still lets that beautiful DSP shine through.

I've also decorated an envelope to match using the floral image in the "Fresh Vintage" stamp set, which is also one of the options offered as part of Sale-a-bration.


Please note - Sale-a-bration finishes at the end of the month, so if you would like to get your hands on the stamp set or DSP featured today, only have until then.  Once Sale-a-bration is over these options will no longer be available, you won't be able to event buy them as they are exclusive to this event this year.

Happy crafting..... xx
