Let's admit it...if you are a Stampin' Up! fan, today is the day you've been waiting for. The day when your stamping obsession actually pays off and you can get even more fabulous stamps for F-R-E-E! I know that I have looked forward to this day each year for the past twelve years. Sounds silly, doesn't it? Well, that's just the way it is...we gals love a great value! Oh, and IMHO this year is the best Sale-a-Bration ever! The stamp sets are fabulous, the DSP is gorgeous, and there is even an option for those of you who love digital downloads....AWESOME!
In honor of Sale-a-Bration, I thought I would share another card that I created for the Leadership displays last week. This card features the Sprinkled Expressions stamp set, along with the Everyday Enchantment DSP, and the Everyday Enchantment Ribbon & Brad Pack. I will be the first one to admit that my cards are not always "do-able" for the beginner, but I designed the layout on this card specifically to be workshop friendly, so I encourage you to give it a try.
Also, don't forget the beautiful Occassions Mini Catalog. This may very well be the very best Sale-A-Bration ever for Stampin' Up! customers.
Speaking of the Occassions Mini catalog...I thought I would show you some of the beautiful projects that were on display at Leadership Convention.
I did not make these pillows or quilt, but I had to show you what you can do with the new Dresden Designs Bigz L die, the Big Shot, and the Twitterpated designer fabric. Aren't they just beautiful? It almost makes me want to start quilting. Notice I said "almost". I do love fabric and sewing, but I don't see a quilt anywhere in my near future.
Here is another view of the quilt. I wish they had displayed the entire quilt. Did you notice the beautiful Riding Hood Red pleated satin ribbon around the center flower. LOVE IT! I really wish I had the patience to make a quilt...especially when I see one that is this beautiful. I come from a long line of quilters/seamstresses, so maybe one day.
Oh, and look at how they used the Elegant Bird Bigz Die on this quilt piece. I apologize for the shadow on the top portion of the photo...I should have used my flash. Ooops!
OK, that's all for today. See you tomorrow with even more beautiful projects to share! Oh, and don't forget to head on over to my on-line store to see all the wonderful new products Stampin' Up! has to offer.
