More Coordination

With it being the last month of Sale-a-Bration you would expect a non-eventful month right?  Not exactly because Stampin’ Up! has released their Sale-a-Bration Coordination products.  If you like the Sale-a-Bration products, then you will see that these are some wonderful products that coordinate with the current Sale-a-Bration catalog products.  

WOW!  The Hop Around Framelits sold out in record time.  Therefore, I encourage you to not delay and place your order as soon as possible.  You do not want to miss out on framelits to coordinate with your Sale-a-Bration stamp sets.

Since Framelits are my favorite, I’m very excited about these new products.  So get out your Big Shot and have fun with these new Framelits.  If you have not been able to decide on what Sale-a-Bration products you may like, maybe these new products will help you.  You can also visit my online store here to check them out.  Let me know if you have any questions. 

Thanks for stopping by!  Next week, we’re Celebrating Birthdays in the monthly card class so I’ll be sharing samples of some fun birthday cards in my next post.

Featuring Needlepoint Nook

In an earlier post this week, the Needlepoint Nook bundle was introduced to you.  Today, I am featuring the Needlepoint Nook bundle in three different cards.  The Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper is especially highlighted.  The detail of the designer series paper is amazing!  You are able to see the individual embroidery strands of the stitches.  With such detail, it makes creating cards simple since the paper can be the feature element.  

Helpful Hints:

As you look at the samples, notice the first two from the left are very simple cards.  The pink card really features the paper with just a ribbon tie and a stamped sentiment added.  This card is perfect for the beginning stamper or anyone needing a quick to make card.  To create the sentiment, first use the Needlepoint Elements Framelits Die to emboss embroidery stitching on a piece of Whisper White cardstock.  Next you will stamp the sentiment into the center of the embossed piece.  Lastly, cut the shape using the coordinating Pretty Label Punch.

The blue butterfly card includes a “tuxedo” fold to add interest to the card front.  The double-sided designer series paper is great since the reverse design coordinates perfectly.  To create the “tuxedo” look, mark the midpoint of the designer series paper. For the sample above, the designer series paper is 5-1/4″ x 4″ so the midpoint is 2″ from right edge and 2-9/16″ from top (the Stampin’ Trimmer is the perfect tool to use!).  After marking the midpoint, cut from the midpoint to the right edge.  Fold back the flaps to create the “tuxedo” collar.  After folding, attach the designer series paper to a 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of whisper white cardstock. 

The far right sample is good transition card for a beginning stamper to build upon their skills.  The layered embellishment and sentiment are stamped using colors that coordinate with the paper.  With the Needlepoint Elements Dies it is easy to cut the shapes.  To add more visual interest, snip between each strand of the Flax Ribbon and separate the strands.  

Remember for a 10% savings, order the Needle & Thread Bundle.  The bundle includes the Needle & Thread Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Needlepoint Elements Dies.
