sale-a-bration almost gone...

The once a year, fabulous sale-a-bration promotion is amost gone.  Only one week left!  I know many of you have already placed your $60 order to get your free stamps and accessories but if you haven't, make sure to do so before they are gone! 
Here's a couple ideas to help your inspiration:
This one uses pool party cardstock and the everyday enchantment dsp and brads (sale-a-bration exclusive!!)

This one is a super simple one using the beautiful fresh vintage set in blushing bride.  The blushing bride colour along with it's 2010 in colour teammates, pear pizzazz, poppy parade, peach parfait and concord crush will be gone very soon so order your cardstock and refills now before they sell out in May.

I'm STILL loving that pleated satin ribbon!

Shimmery fifth avenue

I had great fun at technique class/club on Monday night. The technique focus was on reinkers. Not only do reinkers juice up your ink pad, they do lots of other great tricks as well. This is one of the cards the girls did using a reinker drop technique. To get the best effect on this technique you need the shimmery white paper. You heat emboss a line image stamp then spritz it with lots of water. Then using an aqua painter drop reinker onto the embossed image and watch the ink spread in the pooled water . So fun! The result is a watercoloured look with underlying shimmer. If you want to see this technique in action, contact me to book your own private class or workshop. I would be happy to wow your friends. Don't forget, you want to book your party soon do you can get in for my hostess appreciation night on June first! Another way to get in for my hostess appreciation night is to become a Stampin4fun Member.  Then you receive all my monthly technique classes, a free catalogue, hostess benefits and more!  Talk to me for all the details.

Playing with stamps and paper

Just spent most of the day playing. I have a slew of private classes and events coming up so whenever that happens I just sit down and stamp a whole bunch of simple cards and then figure out later which card will be for which event.
I thought I would share a couple with you. Of course if you want to see more ideas, you need to book your own private class with me!

This one below was just something fun using the twitterpated dsp and the co-ordinating buttons.  It's hard to tell but the base colour is blushing bride and the red is the riding hood red.  The dsp shapes were made the the 1 3/8" square punch and 1 1/4" square punch and two of the corners were rounded.

This card uses two sale-a-bration products: the everyday enchantment dsp and the embossing folder frames.  Pool party and Lucky limeade are great colours to pair together. The stamp set is called Clearly for You.

Still saleabrating

Here is a couple of leadership swaps I received showcasing the beautiful everyday enchantment dsp
Thanks a lot to A Dobbs and J Ramsey for sharing your swaps!
