HELLO, HELLO,

As Paul sang: I dont know why you say Goodbye, I say Hello...

 Here is my take on HELLO.  This is a Calypso Coral based card with Lucky Limeade Layer and different colors of the stamp HELLO, punched out with the Petite Curly Label Punch.  Every other one is up on dimensionals for some added interest.  I made a ticket corner on the layer by punching with a circle punch and added a scallop embellishment along the bottom.

I also used the ruffled Calypso Coral ribbon and tied a knot.  The card base was stamped in the same color with a stamp from the MY FRIEND stamp set.  They are raindrops.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today.  Wont you leave me some feedback? Stay creative, my friends!!

BIRTHDAY CARD CLASS LAST NIGHT

We had a fun birthday card class last evening.  We made 2 each of 2 different designs and used some fun techniques.

The first one we made was using the big beautiful SWALLOWTAIL background stamp.  We heat embossed it with melon mambo embossing powder.

 Pink pirouette card stock and melon mambo card stock layer, with melon mambo embossing powder.  The greeting banner is sponged with melon mambo ink and is held in place with a clearance rack brad.  The 1/8" ribbon is actually pretty in pink and it just fits here perfectly, I think.

Some used chalks to color in parts of the butterfly.  One lady used her aqua pen and water colors.  If you have any questions, let me know.

 I am in love with this honeycomb embossing folder.  Daffodil Delight card stock with a layer of Early Espresso cs behind it.  The honeybee is from the cute set called Curio Collage.

The naturals ribbon is very textural and goes so well with the card base of Crumb Cake card stock.  The silver small bottle top is attached with a piece of bakers twine.  The FREE petite curly label punch was used for the sentiment which is from the FREE stamp set Petite Pretties.  Get these FREE during SALE-A-BRATION.  Contact me to learn how.

If you have any questions, let me know.

SALE-A-BRATION BLOG HOP - DAY TWO

This has been so much fun seeing all the ideas from my team mates.  I hope you have found some ideas and also some products you want to add to your "stash".

I have what I think is a very  CUTE GIFT for a THANK YOU to teachers, or a THINKING OF YOU for a friend, etc.  It is a little decorated holder of a mini pen and some post-it notes.  Perfect for someone's desk or purse.

 Here are three of them I made, each a little different but the same design template.

 I used the following card stock colors:
   Summer Starfruit
   Midnight Muse
   Gumball Green

The designer paper pack is called PRINT POETRY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER STACK.  It is a pack of 48 double sided papers sized at 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" in a pad.  Easy to store and easy to flip through to choose what you want to use.  I LOVE this size of DSP.  It is in our new SPRING CATALOG.

 Here it is open so you can better understand the design.  These mini pens are being sold all over, and the best price I found in my area is in the discount aisle at Target.  They say Little Kitty on them, but hey, I don't think it matters, does it?

The PETITE BUTTERFLY PUNCH is from the Spring Catalog, and the curly label punch is from the large annual catalog.  The PETITE CURLY LABEL PUNCH is a FREE item from Sale-a-Bration.  The "hello" is from the stamp set called PRETTY PETITES and is also a FREE item from Sale-a-Bration.  I used pearls for the bodies of the butterflies.

Thanks so much for visiting each day of our blog hop.  If you do not have a demonstrator, please consider letting me be your demonstrator, won't you?
