Sale-A-Brate Good Times, Come On!!

If you have'nt heard, Stampin' Up! has just released the new 2010 Sale-A-Bration catalog and the 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog. Over the next few months I will be sharing lots of papercrafting samples made with items from both catalogs.

To kick things off, here is a Valentine's Day Love card that I created using Stampin' Up! newest punch, Scallop Border Trim Punch (item# 118402). This punch is from the 2010 Sale-A-Bration catalog and is FREE with the purchase of $50 in Stampin' Up! merchandise. The punch also has a coordinating corner punch, Scallop Trim Corner Punch (item# 118870). The corner punch is available in the 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog and can be purchased here.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Happy Birthday Hubby

Okay, I think that this will be my final post for today. I'm all posted out. This card I made for my Husband for his 40th Birthday. On the card I used Designer Series Paper, Walk in the Park (115123), featured in the Occasions Mini Catalog, Kiwi Kiss Grosgrain Ribbon (111372), Basic Gray Card stock (108692) and the "Happy" is spelled using the Basic Gray card stock as well as the Stampin' Up! Billboard Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die (114510). (whew, that's a mouth-full) I also added a decorative edge to the DSP using the Scallop Edge Punch (112091). The white letters are from American Crafts Thicker Stickers Letters . Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoyed the posts and the cards today. Oh, before I forget, Happy National Scrapbooking Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pink in Manhattan

Isn't she pretty? I used the new Stampin' Up! Textured Impressions Die - Manhattan Flower (114517) to emboss the entire card front. I then used the 2-Way Glue Pen (100425) to trace along the embossed image on the card front. After the glue was applied to the embossed image, I sprinkled on some Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter (102023). To top it off I stamped images from the Great Friend (113792) stamp set found in the Occasions Mini Catalog, good through June 30, 2009, and popped it on the front with Stampin' Dimensionals(104430) . Isn't she a beaut? Thanks for looking, bye.
