Movie Monday featuring the Birthday Bash Bundle

 

Have you been enjoying Stampin' Up!'s Sale-a-Bration?  I sure have!  It is so fun to earn FREE products every time I make a purchase of $50 or more.  Since SAB comes around every year at this time, I wait to stock up on basics like cardstock, papers, adhesives and envelopes. When I buy them during SAB, I can earn a FREE item for every $50 I spend!

Through March 31, you can earn exclusive FREE Sale-a-Bration products when you purchase $50 worth of ANY Stampin' Up! products - from the catalogs, from the special flyers, from the Weekly Deals, and from the Clearance Rack.  As your order adds up, so do your FREE items - one for every $50 you spend!

Can't decide what to order??  Stampin' Up! has made it even easier to choose $50 worth of products by offering a few limited-time product bundles!  Every Monday in March, I'm going to feature one of these bundles and show you a 'movie' of the bundle in action.  

Today's feature presentation:  Birthday Bash

The Birthday Bash Bundle includes everything you need to make 20 handmade Birthday cards with your choice of the wood or clear Banner Blast Stamp Set for FREE during Sale-A-Bration. This video will show you how to create a cute and easy card that you can duplicate using this bundle. This Birthday Bash Bundle is only available for a short time!

Sale-a-Bration is coming to an end . . .

Hello, stampers!  I am sad to say that my most favorite time of the Stampin' Up! calendar year . . . is coming to an end - Sale-a-Bration!  Have you enjoyed SAB this year and taken full advantage of the chance to get FREE product?  I hope so.  If not, there's still time!  Orders of $50 or more placed by March 31st qualify for FREE products - just visit my Online Store to see them!

Here are a couple cards I created using Sale-a-Bration goodies.  This first card was inspired by a challenge I saw in Take Ten Magazine and uses several SAB products.

The Summer Starfruit pancy and the Pool Party circle are both raised with Dimensionals, and the Crisp Cantaloupe cording is just knotted and attached in the back of the Sahara Sand layer . . .

All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.

Card Recipe
Stamps:  Petal Parade
Ink:  Summer Starfruit, Pistachio Pudding
Paper:  Sweet Sorbet DSP, Pool Party, Sahara Sand, Whisper White
Extras:  Sweet Sorbet Accessory Pack (cording, cork flower), Pansy punch, Decorative Dots TIEF, Corner Rounder punch, Deco Labels and Circles Framelits, basic pearls, Dimensionals
Inspired by:  Take Ten Magazine, Winter 2014 issue

Purchase the Stampin’ Up! Supplies to make this project at my ONLINE STORE.

This fancy little notecard is made with the Good as Gold Simply Sent Kit you can earn FREE with an order of $50 or more.  The kit makes 8 cards with envelopes that are lined with gold foil!  What fun - for yourself, or as a gift to another crafty friend. You can gift it as a kit, or you can put it together and gift it as a pack of finished notecards!

I mounted the word banner with Dimensionals, otherwise the only thing I had to add to the kit was adhesive!  I also trimmed the width of the card by about 1/16" so that it would slide into the envelope more easily.

All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.

Card Recipe
Stamps:  none needed!
Ink:  none needed!
Paper:  Good as Gold Simply Sent Kit
Extras:  Good as Gold  Simply Sent Kit, Dimensionals
Inspired by:  Sale-a-Bration FREEbie!

In memory of a stamping friend . . .

In memory of BARB WINKLE, a loving special lady with a passion for stamping. Your words of encouragement, dear, gave me the determination to keep going many times. I will miss you greatly...

My tribute as Barb's 'stamping lady':
What fun Barb was at our stamping club classes! She loved to stamp and she loved to fellowship with other ladies. She was all about relationship first, hobby second. 

Her encouraging words to me kept me going many times. It's ladies like Barb that give real meaning to what I do as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator - and Barb wasn't only a customer - she was a true friend. 

I . . . no, we ALL from our Tuesday night class . . . will miss Barb a TON. That empty chair next week . . . that's hers. But she left an impact on my life - I hope she did on yours, too. 

Let's do what she did - love on the people around us and SAY the encouragement they need to hear.

Thanks for stopping by today!
