Birthday Whimsy

Yesterday I sorted out 48 cards for a demonstrator card swap. Each participant sent in a certain number of identical cards (depending on the number of spots they sign up for) and gets different cards back! It’s such a great way to get different ideas. This swap was featuring cards made with the Sale-A-Bration stamp sets.

It was so fun to see what people came up with. The next few days I’m going to feature some of these cards.

Here are 3 cards using the BIRTHDAY WHIMSY stamp set. This set has 5 different stamps great for any birthday card or scrapbook pages!

It’s almost time to Sale-A-Brate!!!!

Can you feel the excitement in the air???? Our biggest sale of the year is just around the corner. Ever year Stampin’ Up! has a Sale-A-Bration (SAB) sale where you can get FREEEEEEEEEE stamps!!! How fun is that?!

As a customer, for every $70 you spend- you’ll get to pick out of 5 different stamps sets or a package of awesome rub-on’s for free. You can see the SAB flyer HERE. Our hostesses also get to earn more free stamps than usual…for every $400 in workshop sales, they get a free SAB stamp set too. Can I hear…whooohooo for free stamps!

I’ve started to play with my stamps and did I forget to mention as a special touch, SU has die-cut all the SAB stamps. You’ll be stamping in minutes when you get them!

The 2 cards below are using the stamp set called Friendship Blooms, a set of 5 fun stamps.

This first card was so fun to make!  TIP ALERT: I used post it notes to mask off the portion of the white cardstock that I didn’t want inked and then used a dauber to pick up the ink off the pad and added it to the middle of the white. I stamped all my images before removing my post it notes. I then colured with marker and added glitter to the flowers…all flowers have to sparkle, don’t you think?!

This second card uses the same flower and stamped on vanilla cardstock. I coloured the flower using a aquapainter and the ink from the lid of my ink pad. I added some more glitter and one of my favourite accessories- Rhinestone Brads!

Let me know what you think!!!! Josee
