Everyday Enchantment

This card was made with the Sale-a-Bration Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper and Ribbon & Brad Pack.  It features the new Adorning Accents Edgelit Die and Embossing Folder.  Stampin’ Up’s Grid Paper, a clear Big Shot cutting pad and small pieces of removable tape are essential to make the learning curve a cinch.  Take your cutting pad to the grid paper, line up the edgelit onto the paper and tape it down.  Then take your cutting  pad to the Big Shot.  Make sure to place the tape on the part of the paper that will be unused.  The results of this embossed decorative edge gives this card the WOW factor.  I was squealing with delight!!!

Triple Treat Triple Flower

Over the next few days I will be posting the cards made at my January Stamp Camp. This card received a unanimous vote as the favorite card of the evening by my customers. The first time I looked in the 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog, the Triple Treat Flower Single Stamp went on the head of my Wish List.  Had to have it.  Now I know why.  This color palate is perfect for this time of year.

Now this stamp is also being offered in the Sale-a-brations catalog and can be earned for free with a qualifying purchase.
