Olaf for January

Last night was the first round of this year's Scrap & Go Club.  Each month a group of ladies get together and make two 12" x 12" coordinating scrapbook pages.  The first month, February, and the last month, November, they make three pages.  At the end of the ten month commitment they have a scrapbook for the entire year's events.

Since Olaf is so "hot" this year I decided he would be perfect for January's Scrapbook page.Olaf ScrapbookThe page is Marina Mist with layers of Whisper White and Night of Navy.  I printed the "Do you want to build a snowman?" on my computer and stamped little snowflakes using the Perpetual Birthday Calendar stamp set with Marina Mist ink.

Blackberry Bliss Lotus Blossom

 

The Lotus Blossom stamp set seems to be the most popular Sale-a-Bration stamp set for my customers.  Those who aren't sure about it have fallen in love with it the first time they use it.
Lotus BlossomThe base of this card is Mossy Meadow with a layer of Whisper White and then a layer of Blackberry Bliss that has been embossed using the new Spring Flower Embossing Folder.  I stamped the flower blossom using Blackberry Bliss — full strength on the first two stamps and then stamped off, for a lighter color on the third stamp.  The Happy Birthday image is from a new Hostess stamp set called Because You Care.  Remember, you can only get the Hostess stamp sets when you host a party.  I would love to join you and your friends for a fun night of stamping so you can choose this stamp set FREE.

Crazy About You Birthday

The Crazy About You stamp set is awesome.  At first sight in the Occasions Catalog you might think you really don't need this set — wrong.  It is such a versatile stamp set, great for all stampers but fabulous for beginners.  There are words for most occasions and you can put single words together to create even more sayings.  The stamp set also includes two floral images and leaves.
Crazy About You
The base of this card is Sahara Sand cardstock that I stamped the leaves on twice using Sahara Sand ink.  Then I added a layer of Whisper White that I stamped Happy Birthday using Soft Suede ink.  I added a banner of Soft Suede cardstock next.  Then I used the 2 1/2" circle punch and Coastal Cabana cardstock.  I stamped the flower with Calypso Coral ink and punched out with the coordinating Medallion Flower punch.  I added that to Coastal Cabana circle using dimensionals and don't forget to add the pearl that is colored with a Coastal Cabana Blendability
