MORE CARDS FROM SIMPLY SENT GOOD AS GOLD KIT

HEY BLOGGIES,

I am showing some NEW ITEMS coming up in January from the SALE-A-BRATION Catalog and this GOOD AS GOLD SIMPLY SENT KIT is awesome!!

Here are two cards I made with the kit.

 I am especially loving the card base with the coastal cabana, crisp cantaloupe, pistachio pudding, baked brown sugar and shiny gold foil POLKA DOTS.  They make this card so fun!!   I also LOVE LOVE LOVE that the thank you die cuts are IN THREE LANGUAGES!!  That is so trendy right now to have French, German, etc. in decor.  LOVE IT!!

And the die cuts come in all the coordinating colors to match the card base.  The card base is very heavy card stock while is PERFECT in my humble opinion!!

THESE ARE MY THANK YOU CARDS FOR ORDERS FOR THIS MONTH.

If you missed my fun card yesterday from this kit, don't forget to see it below.

Thanks for visiting.  Stop back by again, ya' hear?  I have so many NEW GOODIES to share with you!!

SNEAK PEEK AT NEW SALE-A-BRATION CATALOG GOODIES

HEY BLOGGIES,

I just got my pre-order for the OCCASIONS CATALOG and SALE-A-BRATION  delivered TODAY!!  YIPPEE!!  The Occasions Catalog is not active until  January, but as a demonstrator, I need to have the items to plan my demonstrations early.  Therefore, I whooped and hollered when I got my package TODAY.

 I chose to first show you this wonderful SIMPLY SENT KIT called GOOD AS GOLD.  It is a kit for enough to make at least 8 cards, 8 envelopes and 8 liners for the envelopes.  Also a sheet of die cuts, the gold twine and the baker's twine..  LOVE IT.  AND IT IS FREE FREE FREE WITH ANY $50 ORDER!!

 I chose to make the popular file folder cards with the insert you slide into the file folder.  I made the insert with the ENVELOPE LINER (the gold sheet).  FUN FUN FUN.  I adhered the skinny coastal cabana banner, the MERCI banner and then a gold  foil sheet banner with a star punched out.  I then used the star as the DOT on my "I"  in MERCI.

   I cut the top to look like a tab topped file folder and glued "thank you" die cut banner on the insert. It just slides into the file folder card that is held together with the twines.

Closer look at the shiny gold foil insert where you write your message.

Hope you enjoyed looking at the NEW PRODUCT.  I could have just made the cards and lined the envelopes like the kit suggests, BUT WHERE IS THE SPORT IN THAT, HUH?

Stop back again and see more ideas.

ON IT'S WAY SIMPLY SENT CARD KIT

OH MY GOODNESS, THIS SIMPLY SENT CARD KIT IS SO MUCH FUN!!  If you missed my post yesterday, I got my welcome Paper Pumpkin Kit and put the cards together in less than 20 minutes.  It was so stinkin' fun that I had to immediately get my Simply Sent Kit out and make those cards too!!

 The card base has shiny stripes on it.  Sorry you can't see them very well  in the photos.  The sticky die cuts are very pretty and I love the arrows!!  Look at the cute paper clip adornments.  LOVE THEM.

The only difference between the Paper Pumpkin Welcome Kit contents and this Simply Sent kit that I can see is there are no stamps in the Simply Sent Kit and no ink spot.  BUT you get more cards to make!!

 I used several different stamps on my cards.  This 'Hey there friend" is from the Welcome Paper Pumpkin Kit.  Looks good on this die cut!!

 This "it's the LITTLE things" comes from a retired set and it works well here.  I also added the candy dots.

 The "you're a gem" is also from a retired set and I added one candy dot here.  Still looking cute!!

The kraft envelopes included in the kit are very thick and sturdy and perfect for mailing these cards.

I LOVED putting together this ON IT'S WAY SIMPLY SENT CARD KIT just as much as I enjoyed putting together My Paper Pumpkin.  It was awesome.  It was fun.  It was quick.  IT WAS WORTH PURCHASING IT.  I even have some of the sticky die cuts left over because they sent more than what was needed for the cards.  AWESOME - now I can make a few more cards!!

The item number is 131373 - ON IT'S WAY SIMPLY SENT CARD KIT.

If you don't have a demonstrator, I would love to become your demonstrator.  Click my signature line to order your kit now!!

I can't wait to order another kit soon.  It was so much fun and filled the need I had to get some cards done quickly and mailed out quickly.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Challenges 4 Everybody

EXTRA DAY

ONE EXTRA DAY OF SALE-A-BRATION ITEMS TO SHOW YOU.  I JUST COULDN'T FIT IT ALL INTO OUR 4 DAYS OF BLOG HOPPING!!

 This is the HAPPY HELLO SIMPLY SENT KIT which is, you guessed it, FREE with SALE-A-BRATION!!  It is a kit to make cards, but I wanted to show you how easy you can make other projects, like this gift box for goodies.  I got the idea on the web and the directions from Barb M. at Barbstamps.com.  Thanks girlie!!

 You can see how the kit looks on the left and on the far right how the paper looks.  And a little peek into the box as well for the chocolate goodies!!  YUMMM

 The embellishment of the 3 layer flowers and the stripe are self adhesive die cuts that come in the kit, as well as the rhinestones on the left side.  I added the blue brad inside the flower from my stash.  And of course I added the cellophane bag of candy tied with summer starfruit ribbon from my stash as well!!  (grin)

 

Directions for scoring.  Lay it down flipped pattern side down,  the Tall way on the score tool where you will score at 1" and 4 1/2: all the way down.  

Then turn it the Long way on the score tool and score at 3" only. (It is even with where the the printed chevrons end on the backside.) There is another score line about 1" below that which comes already scored when you receive it.

You cut the two tab areas where the Long scores meet the Tall scores.  These are your tabs and you put Sticky Strip on the outside of these and also on the top along the outer edge as shown in the photo.

I just wanted you to see how the blue printed chevrons show on the side once you adhere them over.  It does not go all the way around.  You adhere the back white piece first on the small tab, then adhere the blue piece.

That's all there is to it.  You can now make cute gift boxes of goodies to go with your cards from this FUN and FREE Simply Sent Kit.

Hope you enjoyed this simple tutorial.  Here's to creativity y'all!!
