Did you know that Sale-A-Bration starts in just 5 more days? That's right it begins on January 25th and runs through March 31st. And just to get you a little more excited, I thought I would share some Sale-A-Bration sample Sneak Peeks between now and then.
This first card uses my favorite stamp set in the Sale-A-Bration Mini. It is called Bliss and is on page 10. I love that baroque image, it's just gorgeous. I kept this card pretty straight-forward and I think that's part of what makes it so striking. I used Basic Black, Very Vanilla and Cherry Cobbler with a touch of Crumb Cake. For the base, I ran a piece of Basic Black through my Big Shot using the Vintage Wallpaper Impression Folder. Next I stamped my baroque image in black on a piece of Very Vanilla. I then added a piece of Fine Print DSP to the bottom of it. On top of that I added a piece of Cherry Cobbler that I punched with the Scallop Trim Border punch. I rounded the top corners of the Very Vanilla and added it to the card base with dimensionals. I then tied on some Victoria Crochet Trim found on page 190 in the big catalog. Next, I stamped my butter fly in Cherry Cobbler on a piece of Very Vanilla and cut it out. I then stamped the greeting in Cherry Cobbler on Crumb Cake and punched it out with the Decorative Label punch. (I'm working on a video for you guys on how to change the size so keep an eye out for that.) I then wrinkled up the Crumb Cake piece and softened it up a bit. I added it to the right edge using glue dots. I then place the butterfly in the center with glue dots. For added embellishment, I added some rhinestones that I colored black, to the center of the butterfly and also the greeting. Enjoy! I'll see you tomorrow for another sneak peek.
LOVE these Bliss cards! AND there's that sweet little label again!
