Papers: Pear Pizzazz, Hello Honey, Basic Black, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer, Watercolour 
Inks: Old Olive, Hello Honey, Soft Suede, Tuxedo Black Memento, Soft Sky

Lotus Blossom

Lotus Blossom is my favourite Sale-a-bration item. It is so simple to make a beautifully stamped image with lots of dimension. For this one I tried out two unusual flower colours, Blackberry Bliss and Lost Lagoon. I love the depth they add to the lotus image. 


Big Day

I used the Best.Year.Ever. stamp set to add some colour by Paper Piecing technique.

 I added it to the "Celebrate", "Cake" and the "Cake". 
The designer series paper has some fun designs, 
but I wanted to use a softer, more subtle paper design. 

Sheer Perfection Designer Vellum

Best.Year.Ever. Designer Series Paper is behind the butterfly peeking through the vellum and as a layer. I didn't want to ruin the lovely effect of the vellum, so I stamped the For all you do sentiment onto a piece of window sheet and added it to the butterfly layer. 

I had these cute little vases that I bought at Michael's Craft Store and thought how cute would they look with some butterflies shooting out from them. So I used a piece of the "Sheer Perfection Designer Vellum" and coloured and cut them out before adding them to a piece of window strip. 

They were fluttering a lot in the wind. 

I chose the piece of vellum with the flowers shooting up from the bottom, which was perfect for this tiny bottle. I just trimmed it a bit. 

I added a Lost Lagoon thick baker's twine around the bottle and tied a sentiment made from a window sheet, saying "My friend" from the Six Sided Sampler set (annual catalogue).

The window sheets were adhered using a glue dot, 
and added to the fringe made with the Fringe Scissors. 

Best. Day. Ever.

I decided to make some fun flowers - I added flowerpots made using the heart from the same stamp set. I wanted perfect alignment, so I used the stamp-a-ma-jig. 

This card features a lot of Sale-a-bration items: 
Best. Day. Ever Stamp set, Best. Year. Ever Designer Series Paper, In Colour Accessory Pack, Simply Wonderful Stamp Set, Sheer Perfection Designer Vellum. 

Simply Wonderful

How adorable are these cute little carrots? Perfect for Easter this weekend... of course they have some chocolates inside! I just cut a strip of designer series paper (Confetti Celebration), since it was orange - added some sticky strip to make a tube. Pinched one end and sealed closed. Put the treats inside, cut some fringe and add to the top before closing to secure the treats inside. I love the sentiments in the Simply Wonderful stamp set. I used the To a great friend, and You're the best - I added the "Simply"

 I hope you've enjoyed all my shares...
 and feel inspired to create with this years' sale-a-bration items. 
I'd love to hear you thoughts on what I've created, have a great day! 

Thanks for stopping by, happy stamping!
Beckie
