Stamps ... not just for cards anymore



I've been missing for awhile, and I apologize. I've been stamping, but I've been forgetting to scan and post. I'm hoping to start posting at least a couple of times a week from now on, although tax season may get the best of me.

This is a gift for an online friend, a silver and pink necklace. I really like the way it turned out and hope she likes it too. It's made with a piece of Stylized Silver Hodgepodge Hardware, a flower from the Pretties Kit painted with Burgundy Shimmerz, pink pirouette cardstock, and rose red grosgrain ribbon. The cardstock was cut to fit the frame as I don't have that punch (yet) and stamped and embossed with silver ink and embossing powder using one of the stamps from Itty Bitty Backgrounds. The brad was from my collection, I think it's a Stampin' Up ice brad, but I'm not sure.

Have you seen the new catalog yet? There is dreamy stuff in it! And, right now, Stampin' Up will give you one for free. Just place an online order through my website anytime between now and April 1st. Don't want to order online? That's okay too. If you place a Sale-a-Bration qualifying order directly through me (does not apply to workshop orders) I'll give you one with your order.

Speaking of Sale-a-Bration - Stampin' Up is giving away stamps, designer paper and ribbon. Have you seen the flyer yet? It's great! It's jampacked with ideas for things to do with the Sale-a-Bration gifts, and the gifts themselves are great. I'm making a few birthday cards with some of them and will post them as soon as I can. In the meantime, if you didn't receive a flyer in the mail you can look at it here.
