SAB fun

Hi everyone. I've been having fun the past 2 days making lots of cards using the Sale-a-bration sets. Remember - if you place an order worth $50 - you too can receive one of these great sets. And you will receive an additional set for each $50 you spend - how awesome is that! There are also tons of sets out of the catalog you can use your rewards on instead. One of my favorite rewards is the Designer Series Paper and Quick Accents Pack - you will see I used it on several of the cards. Contact me to place an order.

The card designs in the first 3 photos were right out of the Stampin Success Magazine us demonstrators are lucky to receive every month. The owl card is my first design with the two-step owl punch I just got - fun!

Butterflies

Hi everyone. I made some cute butterfly cards today to give to my grandmother for her birthday - she loves butterflies! All 3 cards used the framed tulip embossing folder and the beautiful wings embosslit die.

I got the idea for this last one from Christy Galang in Stampin Connection.

Purse box in a bag

Isn't this cute??? First you make a box that is the base of the purse - then you make the "purse" that surrounds the box. Pretty darn easy and super fun. I am going to fill these with some party goodies for my daughter's birthday but you could also stick a couple 3x3 cards inside as well for gift. I was going to add stitch lines on the green strips as well as the buckle parts but I'm tired and being lazy! I CASE'd this from Gwen from her blog stampingwithgwen.blogspot.com.

New wine tags

Made these wine tags this morning - love the colors! These are so much fun to make.

Wine tag and cards

My first attempt at making wine tags last night. Also made a 3x3 card and a full sized card to match. Let me know what you think!

I got this card idea from my friend Karen - I love the embossing folders that you can use with the Big Shot. This tulip one is super cute!

Valentine's Day

I needed a few more Valentine Day cards so I dug thru my stack of samples and this is what I found. Not sure where the samples for the first 2 cards came from.

This card I CASE'd from Amy Rogers blog. I then designed the inside of the card. I don't normally decorate the inside but it is hard to write on the Cherry Cobler and I think it turned out super cute. Will definitely do this again!

Updated purse card

I made a new purse card today - like it a little better than the other one I posted. This one has a cute flower brad where a buckle on a purse would be. I love the Sunny Garden DSP as well with this card.

New cards

Well today I stayed home all day and stamped. I made a few more of the valentine treat jars and the following 3 cards. The first one was made with my nephews in mind...Elmo and Cookie Monster!

I got the idea for the next card from my good friend Karen - isn't it cute?

And this last card I made for my very first "swap" that I am going to participate in. The swap is "flower power cards" and all who participate will send in 6 cards and then get 6 different cards in return. Can't wait to see all the fun and different cards I will receive.
