Sale-A-Bration! Sweet! Stems, that is!

Yummy! That's the SAB stamp set that the swirl and sentiment are from. SAB? Sale-A-Bration! Here's a card that I'm going to swap with. Hope the other demonstrators like it. I used Sweet Stems for the flower image and colored it in with marker. To finish it off, I gave it a hand drawn frame with my marker and used my color spritzer on the background. I used my crimper on the Lilac piece. I stamped the swirl in VersaMark and then Lilac, then down on the paper to emboss it with Clear EP. With Love was colored with markers and punched with the Word Window, then dotted with a marker. The background on the Pink Passion is the Sanded Background stamp. Add a few rhinestone brads, a bow attached with a mini glue dot and voila! Finished! Looks like a lot of work, but very simple. :-)
Colors are White, Pink Passion, Lovely Lilac, Green Galore, Tempting Turquoise.
Thanks for visiting the Stamping Station.

Sneak Peek of SAB - Possible Idea for the Tea Party

Good Morning! I dropped the boys off at school and now it's time to post another card idea. This is for a shoebox swap that I'm going to on Sunday. The photo isn't very good, so please ignore the quality of the pic.
I folded my Pink Pirouette cardstock in half, then placed on the Top Note Die with the fold of the cardstock just below the top perforations. I repeated that with the Designer Paper from Sale-A-Bration. (Yes, this is a sneak peek!) I cut along the perforated line on the Designer Paper and smoothed out any roughness with my sanding block. The white greeting is a SAB stamp set - isn't it cute???!!! It's called Yummy. I love this one. I stamped it in Whisper White Craft after rubbing my Embossing Buddy across it. I sprinkled White Embossing Powder over it and heated until melted. Next, I used my cute embosslit for the Closes to Cocoa and Pink Pirouette flowers. I used a couple of Mini Glue Dots on the backs to adhere them to the DP, tied a bow and attached that with a Mini Glue Dot. Voila! A very simple and sweet card. This would also double great for a bag topper for Valentine's Day. Ok, off to cut the cardstock for this swap. Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station.
Blessings,
