Cake Soiree Pop Up Card

Last week I shared the wonderful Pop-Up Cards that we did at our Stampin’ Sisters Retreat.  Many of my customers weren’t able to attend our retreat and wondered how to make these cards pop up.  So, I decided to share this great technique at my Fast & Fabulous Cards Class last night.  It looks hard but they found it really wasn’t hard at all.  This time I used the Sweet Soiree designer paper and the Cake Soiree Bundle.  I think it turned out quite cute.

This card is adorable just like this, write your greeting inside and you are ready to pop it in the mail, but WAIT, we aren’t done yet.  Check out the inside:

St. Patrick’s Day – March Scrapbook Pages

I wanted to share my March Scrap & Go pages with you.  Each month’s pages focus on the holiday, either with stamps or color schemes.  March of course is St. Patrick’s Day.  Now I know that not everyone is Irish but a little green never hurt anyone right.

I designed these pages without any shamrocks or pots of gold.  I used the Naturally Eclectic Designer Paper as the main focus and added layers of Lemon Lime Twist for pictures.  I added little “sparkles” from Epic Celebration stamp set with Tranquil Tide ink.  You only have 10 days left to earn the Epic Celebration stamp set.  Do you have it yet?

Blossoming Basket Bundle Card

Have you seen the Blossoming Basket Bundle in the Sale-a-Bration Round 2 Brochure.  Oh my gosh — it is gorgeous.  The bundle has a Basket Weave Dynamic Embossing Folder and the Blossoming Basket Stamp Set.  The embossing folder will continue on into the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog but the stamp set is only available in this bundle as a Level 2 Sale-a-Bration choice through the end of the month (11 more days) — time is running out to get this great bundle.  Just place an order for $100 and you can choose this bundle FREE.

I cased this card from one that Patty Bennett did.  I love how it turned out — there is such a softness to it.
