Simply Wonderful (Sale-a-bration)


This is a thank you card for a Christmas present (I know, shockingly late!).

I used the free Simply Wonderful stamp set from the Sale-a-bration brochure (page 16, 139125). It's free with a spend of £45 or more & contains six really useful sentiment stamps.
 
 

All too often when buying crafting stuff we buy bits here & there. And, having got it home & sniffed & stroked & mooned over it, we find we don't quite know what to use it with. And so we never use it (trust me, I have a PhD in this). So a great way to shop during Sale-a-Bration is with a particular project in mind. Include coordinating papers, inks, cardstock etc in your main order and get your stamps from the Sale-a-Bration brochure. That way you can be sure of making a whole project.
 
For example, for this card you could buy the paper stack, one of the cardstock packs, the lace stamp, one of the ink pads and the decorative label punch for just under £46, and choose the Simply Wonderful stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration brochure.  A co-ordinated approach really will make your stash go much further!

Banner birthday


Cute birthday card featuring two of this year's In Colors - Tangelo Twist & Blackberry Bliss. I popped the orange Hello up on Dimensionals. 

This pic makes it look big, but it's only ickle - about 4 inches tall? I like it because it's so wee :)

It's my son's birthday today, & I made this for him but then thought better of it. Home made cards from your mum are not the stuff of 14 year olds' dreams, apparently. So I gave him something mass produced & over priced from Paperchase (seriously, £4.95 for an absolutely bog standard card. I no longer feel so guilty about my Stampin' Up! habit).

Another banner framelits flip card (& VIDEO)


I'm on a roll with flip cards! 

This one uses the Banners Framelits and Perfect Pennants stamp set for a slightly nautical feel. They work so well together. Did you know you can buy them together as a bundle and save a bit of money?

There's another how-to video below. Yes, darlings! I'm simply bursting with flip card goodness & just have to tell the world!!

Flipping heck!! Banners Framelits flip card



Have a look at this flip card, made with the Stampin' Up! Banner Framelits & coordinating Perfect Pennants stamp set. 

I love flip cards. Once you get the hang of them you can make them with any die using the method shown in this video.


The card measures 6x7". I scored at 2.5 & 3.5". I used the second largest Framelit to cut out the banner.
