Day 10–Showcasing Sale-a-bration Elementary Elegance

As promised here is yesterdays card “Blinged” up.

For this version I added the new Lace Ribbon border punch (122362). This punch is just lovely & just so versatile. I have used in 2 different ways - as it should be under the main image & then cut in half & added as a border at the top & bottom edges of the card. The more I use this punch, the more ways I find to use it, so expect to see it quite a lot in the coming weeks. I also know that the ladies who attended Lisa & I’s recent all day event, just fell in love with too & several have gone on to order one for themselves.

I have also used the small Embosslit Beautiful Wings (118138) to cut out some small butterflies that fit perfectly over my original stamped images.

What I love about this die is when it cuts the butterflies it also embosses them – how cool is that?

And for my final touch of bling I had to turn to my trusted & oh so loved Rhinestone jewels (119246) – What did I do before Stampin’ Up introduced these little beauties to my life……….

Day 9–Showcasing Sale-a-bration–Elementary Elegance

Hi everyone here I am again with Day 2 of my week long showcase of the Sale-a-bration stamp set – Elementary Elegance.

If you get the clear mounted set for yourself, you will find a small piece like this in the middle of the frame stamp

I thought it was such an interesting shape that it would be a shame to throw it away so this is what I came up with:

I used it as a background stamp…..YIPEE.

I have left this card very plain & simple but if you check back over the next few days you will see how you can “Bling” up a card.

Day 8– Showcasing Sale-a-bration Set 3–Elementary Elegance

Hi Everyone hope you understand the lack of posts last week due to half term week but I promise normal service has now resumed.

This week I’m going to concentrate on the Sale-a-bration set called Elementary Elegance. At first I thought I might struggle with this set only because I thought it lent itself to primarily Scrapbooking but how wrong I could be.

You get 7 gorgeous images with this set & I’m loving all the little elements that are just so useful to add that “little something” to your projects.

Here is my first project made entirely with this set & the only thing I have added as an extra, is a piece of the gorgeous SAB paper, which the ladies at my card club will be pleased to hear I have now stopped stroking & I’m now on my 2nd packet of it as I just cannot stop using it.

I used the small elements to over stamp the paper & with the help of my trusty Stamp-a-ma-jig (101049) I have taken just the crown from the frame to add the border around the card
