One Final Week of Sale-a-Bration - Don't Miss Out!

Warning: one more week of Sale-a-Bration and then these stampsets and papers will be gone for good :(

I have to say i'm a bit sad about this as i have become quite attached to them all. It's not too late to get your crafty mits on these sets - just make a qualifying order by Saturday - email it over to me today: amyjtidd@gmail.com

So this week i'm intending on sharing with you some projects using the Sale-A-Bration sets that i made during a lovely crafty session around Jades today!!

So here you go with my Sale-a-Bration offering for today:

This card is a 'Pear Pizzazz' cardbase, i layered some 'Whisper White onto. The sentiment is from the 'Petite Pairs' set - inked in 'Chocolate Chip'. I punched several squares of 'Everyday Enchantment DSP' (a SAB item) using the 'Postage Punch' from the Mini Catalogue and layered them up and glued them into place. I stamped four flowers from the 'Fresh Vintage' stampset (Another SAB stampset) in 'Pear Pizzazz' and 'Peach Parfait', i cut out the centres of two of the flowers and then placed some 'Basic Pearls' in the centre and put them into place using some 'Dimensionals' to create a 3D effect!

You will notice a theme to this weeks cards beyond the SAB - Thanks. As you know it was my birthday last week, plus i have been unwell and been looked after by so many people so i need to Thank A LOT of people!! Check back tomorrow for another card!!

Perfect Postage PillowBox!

Hey all - it's the weekend!! woo hoo!! I'm so exhausted and can't wait for a lovely relaxing weekend
I really haven't had much time for crafting recently so hopefully i will be able to fit in a lot this weekend!

Today (due to my lack of crafting) i have another fabby project to share with you that has been made by my Stampin' Up! partner in crime Jade. It is a 'Pillow Box' that has been created using my 'Big Shot' and the lovely new stampset: 'Perfect Postage':

This 'Pillow Box' has been created from some 'Whisper White' card and Jade wrapped some 'Pear Pizzazz' 'Seaming Ribbon' around it. She stamped the candle cake stamp from the 'Perfect Postage' stampset, inked using 'Stampin' Write Markers', punched out using the 'Postage Stamp Punch' and then layered on some 'Pear Pizzazz' card punched out with the 'Curly Label' punch and then attached over the ribbon using some 'Dimensionals' to create a 3D effect.

Such a quick but effective project - i just love the 'Pillow Box' die - it just makes the creation of 'Pillow Boxes' such a quick and simple task - perfect if you're looking to create wedding favours!

Thanks again to Jade for saving my bacon again today and providing me with a project to feature on the blog - i promise i will get my bum in gear and create some original CraftyThINKer designs very,very soon!!

Have a great weekend!!

Perfect Postage Calender!!!

Hi all! Have you had a good weekend?! I've had a lovely restful one - but not much crafting - it just seemed to go too quickly!

Today i have another fabby make created by a fellow Stampin' Up! demo Jade and it features another scrummy product from the new Spring Mini Catalogue: a stampset called 'Perfect Postage' and the coordinating stamp!!

Jade created this calender by running some 'Basic Black' card through the 'Big Shot' using the 'Top Note Die' and stuck a calender on the bottom half (These are available from most stationary shops - but these particular ones are from The Range - and are a complete bargain at 10 for £1!!

Jade punched a 'Scallop Circle' from some 'Cherry Cobbler' card and placed that in the centre on the 'Top Note' using a 'Dimensional'. She then stamped the raspberry postage stamp out onto some 'Whisper White' card using 'Stampin' Write Markers' and punched it out using the 'Postage Stamp Punch', this was glued on a diagonal from the 'Scallop Circle'! Jade finished this design off with three 'Old Olive' 'Brads placed in the righthand corner of the 'Top Note'.

Isn't this such a brilliant project!! Have a look at the mini catalogue if you haven't yet had a chance - it is full of such great products. The 'Perfect Postage' stampset and punch can be found on page 20!

If you would like a paper version of the catty for you to flick through email me your postal address and i'll send you one!! My email is amyjtidd@gmail.com
