High Tide Happy Birthday

Posted on by

Isn’t the High Tide Designer Series paper amazing?   I love the little starfish, anchors and most of all the whales.  The make for the perfect summer card and even better, a masculine card.  After playing around for a little bit, this is what I came up with.

Stampin’ Up! supplies:

  • Hardwood background stamp
  • See Ya Later * Sale a Bration set FREE
  • Smoky Slate card stock
  • Whisper White card stock
  • High Tide DSP
  • Smoky Slate ink
  • Calypso Coral ink
  • Gold Baker’s twine
  • Apothecary Accents Framelits
  • Big Shot
  • Dimensionals

Stampin’ Tips: 
Background:  You will want to stamp the Hardwood in Smoky Slate ink onto Smoky Slate card stock.  The tone on tone stamping creates a subtle background.
High Tide paper:  Make sure you cut the DSP in the correct direction so that the anchors and whales are horizontal instead of vertical.  The anchors are 1/2″ wide and whales are 2 1/2″.

Happy Stamping!!

Here is a simple banner birthday card using the new Sale-a-Bration stamp set, See Ya Later.  You can earn it FREE by spending $50 in products in my Shop.

Fresh Print Banner Card, Stampin' Up!

Stampin’ Up! Supplies:

Stamps: See Ya Later * Sale-A-Bration FREE

Paper: Crumb Cake cs, Coastal Cabana cs, Fresh Print DSP Stack

Ink: Baked Brown Sugar

Accessories: Paper snips, Gold Baker’s Twine

I cut slivers of DSP from a few different Fresh Prints papers.  I flagged the ends with Paper Snips (scissors).  I glued twine to the card, then added the flags over top of the twine with dimensionals, not actually glued to the twine- much easier.

Happy Crafting!

Spring Catalog Sneak Peek

Posted on by

Are you excited for the Spring Catalog and Sale-A-Bration 2014?  I am so excited!!  As a demonstrator, I was able to pre-order the great products from the Spring Catalog, available to you on January 1, 2014.  What a perk!  I looked through the catalog and knew instantly what I wanted- gold sequin trim & gold washi tape.  It looks amazing on everything.  In addition to being able to pre-order, for every $50 I spent, I redeemed Sale-A-Bration products- and they shipped with my order!!

My box of goodies came in Thursday, so I had a chance this weekend to play with them.

My top Sale-A-Bration items are included in this little 3×3 note card.  I used a Pistachio Pudding base and added a Pool Party layer, Sweet Sorbet Designer Series Paper & See Ya Later stamp set.  Love it.  So Simple, but it is a really thoughtful birthday card. Perfect for a guy. (Don’t mind the baby’s toys in the background!)
