Say it With Scallops

Todays post is a card I made as a sample when our Summer Mini came out.
I have used greeting from Say it With Scallops Stamp set & then punched it out with our new square scallop punch.
The background stamps I have used are Polka Dot & Paisley.
Cardstock is Regal Rose, Rose Red & Whisper White,& then finished with Regal Rose Grosgrain Ribbon ( you may have noticed I love Ribbon).

Sale-A-Bration Case

This is a case of the Card on the front of our Sale-A-Bration catalogue, I have just changed the colours to Real Red, Taken with Teal, Old Olive & Only Orange.

Simple Botanical Blooms

I do not normally use white as a base card, although I think this looks OK

Again I have used Botanical Blooms from the free Sale-A-Bration sets.

I have stamped in Regal Rose on white, Pretty in Pink cardstock is cuttlebuged with swiss dots & mounted onto Regal Rose I have also used my favourite greetings stamp set (Sincere Salutations) & the Square Scallop punch from the Summer Mini & finished off with Regal Rose ribbon.

For Father Card

This is a card that I made for my Father-in-laws 89th Birthday in January
I have used the words & image from the For Father stamp set which is in the current summer mini (it's a great set for those male cards).
For the base I have used Creamy Caramel cardstock Stamped with the Sanded background
Really Rust stamped with the Weathered background & mounted on Choc Chip & finished with Choc Chip ribbon.
Thanks for looking

Another Sale-A-Bration card

I seem to be on a roll after posting the first card, this another card I made with my Upline Roslyn Vest, We spent a day making up some Sale-A-Bration samples for future workshops & classes and ended up with quite a few.

In this card I have used the Botanical Blooms Sale-A-Bration set again, Chocolate chip for the base card Soft Sky & Wild Wasabi (from our current In Colour range which will retire end of March I am definately going to stock up, it will be sad to see them go) I have also used designer paper (Afternoon Tea) from our Summer Mini also finishing end of March 2009.

First Post Sale-A-Bration

Well I hope this works out OK, I am not very computer savy

My first post is a card using Botanical Blooms stamp set from our current Sale-A-Bration special if you spend $100 on any products from 2008-2009 Ideas Book you can have this set for free.

I have used Blush Blossom for the base card, Ruby Red Stamped with floral background & Old Olive & finished with Choc Chip ribbon
