Panda Valentine

I love the new Sale-A-Bration (SAB) sets.  I created this card with the set, Party Pandas, page 15 of the SAB catalog.  You can get this set FREE if you purchase $50 in product from any of our catalogs, both the Annual Catalog (AC) and the Occasions catalog (OC).  The DSP, Painted with Love, is from the OC, page 19, and the hearts were cut out with gold foil paper which can be found in the AC on pg 194.  I used the Big Shot, pg 209, and the Sweet & Sassy Framelits, pg 214, both in the AC.  In addition, I used the Metallic Enamel Shapes, pg 196 AC.  For the base card I used Thick Whisper white and the front I used our regular Whisper White card stock, both found on pg 194 AC.

 

Happy Birthday Amy

It is my first born’s birthday today.  She is such an incredible person and I wanted to use this space to tell her so.  What an AMAZING cook she is.  I just spent time with her in TN and she cooked me the most incredible gourmet meals.

I used Brusho on this card.  This time I shook the Brusho out on a large block and then spritzed with water to create this background. I moved the card stock over the block and picked up color from the block.  I loved the way it came out.  I used Brusho Yellow, Gamboge, and Brilliant Red colours.
I colored the flowers from the stamp set, Amazing You, page 16 of the SAB catalog, with our SU markers, Calypso Coral and Peek-a-boo Peach, and Daffodil delight, and Crushed Curry.  The embellishments in the flowers centers are Gold faceted Gems.
Right now through March 31 you can get this stamp set FREE by purchasing $50 of product.  In fact if you spend $100 in product, you can get the coordinating Thinlit dies FREE.   See page 17, SAB for details. The possibilities are endless with these products.

This card was created using Epic Celebration, page 12, SAB catalog.  I used the Brusho (page 26 OC) technique on the background.  This time I spritzed the watercolor paper with water and then applied Prussian Blue and Moss Green Brusho.  Let it dry naturally and stamped.  I used the beautiful Umbre ribbon, page 198, AC for embellishment.  I colored the sneakers with Stampin Blends, page 30 of the OC.

This is Beautiful Peacock, pg 7 of the SAB catalog.  I love this set.  I used Night of Navy and Lemon Lime Twist for colors on Whisper White Card Stock.  The embellishments, Tutti-Fruiti, are on pg 29 of the OC and the ribbon is from the AC.  Now through the end of March you can get this set FREE if you purchase $50 in product.

I designed this card with the new stamp set Magical Day, page 37 of the OC.  It is part of the Myths & Magic Suite.  One of my favs.  This set is so versatile.  Right now you can get both the set and the framelit dies at a 10% discount if you buy the bundle.  I fussy cut the little soldier from the DSP, also on same page.  The rest are cut out with the dies.  Hope you like it.
