Sale-A-Bration Ends Tomorrow!
Boo Hoo! Where did the last two months go?!? I like getting free stuff when I place orders for myself and for you! And I'm going to really miss the Everyday Elegance Designer Series Paper!! If you follow my blog, you know I love Designer Series Paper (DSP), and this has been one of my favorites! I've been able to accumulate quite a good stash of it, but the way I use it, it will be gone in no time! Here is my last card using the Sale-A-Bration stamp set Elementary Elegance and of course the Everyday Elegance DSP!
I used Lucky Limeade and Pool Party card stock to compliment the colors in the DSP.
I used Lucky Limeade and Pool Party Stampin' Write Markers to color in the stamp, and then added a few of the smallest Basic Pearl Jewels. If you'd like to see more Sale-A-Bration ideas so you can have several ideas on how to use your free goodies, just head over to my Sisters in Stamping blog and see what my creative stamping sisters made!

Hoppin’ Down the Bunny Trail!
Did you know that Easter is only a little over two weeks away? I made this cute little Easter card last night and I killed three birds with one stone with this one! Don't you love it when that happens. First off, I made an Easter project for my Sisters in Stamping Fabulous Friday post (check tomorrow to see what my creative stamping sisters created), and I used the sketch for the Creating Pretty Cards monthly card challenge, and I made an Easter card for my little Jacie!
There's a free little Mini Sketch Tutorial over on Craft Project Central if you'd like the instructions on how to make this card. I used the Everybunny stamp set, the Domestic Goddess Designer Series Paper, and Daffodil Delight and Poppy Parade card stock.
It's hard to tell from the pictures, but I actually stamped the bunny and mushrooms on scrap Whisper White card stock, cut them out and then adhered them to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.
I also used the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder to give my card front some cute texture! If you need help getting ready for Easter, making cards and other cute Easter projects, just let me know! I'd be glad to help you out! Thanks for stopping by! Have a fabulous weekend!
