They Say It’s Your Birthday

Comments: 0
Apparently balloons are all the rage these days.  Have you noticed all of the balloon stamps, Designer Paper, Punches and Dies in the catalogs that have balloons? 
So today, I thought why not celebrate a birthday with a big bunch of balloons.  I used the It’s My Party Designer Series Paper and the Balloon Bouquet to create this big bunch of balloons.  I added to the festive tone with the Confetti Embossing Folder.  The coordinating Bakers Twine and Enamel dots truly tip the card over the top.

Don’t forget the new Sale-a-bration items are now available!


New Sale-a-bration Products Tomorrow

I’m so excited to share with you the three new sale-a-bration items that will be available tomorrow, February 16th.  Just like all Sale-a-bration items you can’t purchase them but you can earn them for FREE with every $50 purchase.


So today I wanted to share a sweet card I made with one of the new 
stamp sets.

I started with the Shimmer White card stock and my Aqua Painter and I simply brushed on a color wash of Bermuda Bay ink on the top portion of the card stock and Pear Pizzazz on the lower portion.  Once the card stock dried I stamped the bike from the BRAND NEW Pedal Pusher stamp set in Memento Ink and colored the bike with Stampin’ Write Markers.  The sentiment comes from the same set.  I cut the stamp in two pieces so I could stack the words on top of one another.  What do you think?  Isn’t this set adorable?  There’s even accessories you can add to the bike like a bike basket and a flag and stuff to go in the basket.

On Saturday I hosted a Winter Warm Up Stamp Camp with Amanda Waldhart and Lorri Nastala, two of my Stampin’ Express Team Members.  Everyone in attendance made 12 cards featuring items from the sale-abration and Occasions Catalogs.

Lori designed this card using Sky’s the Limit and Happy Home. 

Amanda designed this card using Hello.  Check out the beer mug;  It’s made from the Cups & Kettles Framelits dies and some of the Sale-a-bration Botanical Gardens Designer Series Vellum Stack.

I designed this one using Hello and the super fun Sunburst Thinlits Die.

Be sure to get the three retiring Sale-a-bration items now before they’re gone and check back tomorrow when I’ll be sharing the three new Sale-a-bration items that you can get for FREE starting February 16th.  You’re going to LOVE them.
