Flowering Fields Birthday!

Hello stampers!

What a beautiful weekend it was here!  We had warm days and mild nights.  In January!  I know we will get paid back for this mild winter, but for now, I'm really enjoying it!

I have a card for you today that uses 2 sets available in the Sale-a-bration catalog!  And the background is made by inking up the Tiny Triangles TIEF.  Rather than roll the card stock and embossing folder through the Big Shot, I place the cardstock in the embossing folder and rolled my brayer over the panel a couple of times.

Flowering Fields Clear-Mount Stamp Set

Perfect Pairings Clear-Mount Stamp Set

Tiny Triangles Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Hi everyone!

Recently I participated in a huge swap with a large group of other Stampin' Up! demonstrators.  It's always so exciting to receive swaps, whether in person or in the mail.  I look at them over and over, studying all the detail that went into making these creations.

Here's to You

Greetings stampers!

It was another gray winter's day here today.  But, we're supposed to get warm, sunny weather after tomorrow.  I sure hope that weather moves east after spending some time here because there is plenty of snow to be melted along the east coast!

Before I get to today's card, I want to take a minute to highlight again while NOW is the best time of the year to join my team and become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!  When you sign up during Sale-a-bration, your starter kit includes $155 of product of your choice for only $99.00 with free shipping!!!  That's $56.00 in free product!  What a fabulous deal!  

And, one of the great perks of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is the ability to pre-order new products before anyone else!  The new annual catalog will be out in a few months and the pre-order will start a month or so earlier.

So, if you've been thinking this might be a good fit for you, give it a try!  Even if you never order anything other than the starter kit, you are still getting a great deal!  I've had 2 new team members join during Sale-a-bration so far.  Won't you join them?

If you have any questions about becoming a demonstrator, send me a note and I'll get back to you within 24 hours!

Today's card combines a Sale-a-bration set with a new set from the Occasions catalog that should be on everyone's must have list.

The flowers are from the sale-a-bration set, What I Love.  The background uses stamps from the new Occasions set, Timeless Textures, and the greeting is from the stamp set included in the Watercolor Wishes Card Kit from the annual catalog
