to get this stamp set, Elementary Elegance
Super quick 3 x 3 note cards use Poppy Parade as the base and then I stamped the frame from Elementary Elegance onto 2 3/4 " square of Poppy Parade using Versamark and gold embossed and used our Ticket Corner punch on all four corners. I then punched out the middle of the frame with my Curly Label punch. One the card base I stamped "thanks big time" from A word for you in Black Stazon then attached the frame with dimensionals.
Happy Stamping,
Mix Everyday Enchantment DSP with Elementary Elegance stamp set and you get easy WOW. Naturals Vanilla blends so perfectly with this slightly distressed DSP that you can still get for FREE for a couple more days. Soon to be retired Poppy Parade gives that punch of colour to take this card up to the WOW level.
Happy Stamping,
Yes, Simplly Scored is fabulous for scoringyour cardstock so that you get a perfect fold everytime but what about using Simply Scored for added interest to your card? You bet, can you see where I have used it on this card?
Ok, I will admit in this shot it is hard to see so here is a close up
Simply use the 1/8" grooves to add as many lines as you like, I wanted a tight pattern so used each groove. I started this card by choosing the DSP from Everyday Enchantment sale-a-bration pack and went to my Colour Coach to choose which colour I would like to use with the Calypso Coral. Well, the Colour Coach shows Riding Hood Red as a Sweet compliment. It is right, love this combination!
I used my go to sentiment set, Sincere Salutations and the beautiful blossom is from Fresh Vintage. A little Very Vanilla tafetta knot finishes the card off beautifully.
Happy Stamping,

I do love this colour combination, so bright and cheerful, just like having a cup of tea with a friend! I'm not getting sick of this paper, Everyday Enchantment, I think it is the best Sale-a-bration paper we have had. The cup is not from a set but rather it is a A la Carte stamp in the front of the Idea Book & Catalogue and it fits perfectly onto our Large Oval punch.
Have a great Friday and Happy Stamping,
Great music, yes, but it is also a fun stamping technique. It is very simple, take two different stamp pads, for this card I used coordinating colours, Peach Parfait and Poppy Parade. Ink your stamp with the lighter colour and then "Roll" the edges of the stamp in the darker colour. Ta-daTwo toned image. I have used Naturals Ivory for the base and the image panel and then a piece of Everyday Enchantment DSP for the band. The image is another one the the Sale-a-bration sets, Fresh Vintage.
Happy Stamping,
Thanks to the stamp set, Elementary Elegance, only available till the end of March. I just love this FREE Sale-a-bration set, and if you check out the images that are included in the frame, you can see how many different stamp sets that this set will enhance. Notice the wavy type image on the left of the frame, very similar to the wave image in Extreme Elements (WM 115181)
The key lower left and the crown at the top, Artistic Etchings, (WM 118517 CM 120573)
The bird on the right from Notably Ornate (WM 117098 CM 120561)
And then from Charming the butterfly bottom center and I even think the flowers top left (WM 116519 CM 125829)
Don't you love it when Stampin' Up makes so many coordinating sets.
Happy Stamping,
to me Black & White is a very dramatic colour combination, and using the Sale-a-bration set, Fresh Vintage it seems just a bit more elegant.
I used the floral image to make my own DSP, stamping it using Black Stazon stamping off the edges. I then layered it onto a piece of Basic Black. The sentiment is from Upsy Daisy and is stamped onto a label cut with the Lots of Tags Sizzlit die and then layered onto a Basic Black Decorative Label highlighted with a couple of Basic Rhinestones. I love the way these two shapes go together. I also ran the white background panel through the Big Shot with the Stripes Impressions folder but try as I might, I cannot get a good picture of it.
Happy Stamping,

Glitter adds so much pizzazz to a card, making it stand out. Applying glitter to your card can be as simple as using your Two Way glue pen to stick the glitter to the card or there are other simple techniques that take your card to the next level of WOW factor.
Don't you love this colour combo? I got it from my trusty friend, Stampin' Up!'s Colour Coach. Believe me, this is a combination that I would not of thought of on my own, Island Indigo, Lucky Limeade and More Mustard but it is beautiful. The stamp set, Sprinkled Expressions, 2012 Sale-a-bration FREE set and the ribbon and brad, you guessed it, another FREE Sale-a-bration product.Can you see the glitter on this card? I used our Nova Superfine Glitter in Aqua (114287) to make that star really sparkle.
