I love the versatility of the Large Letters Framelits (141712)!  This last SAS card for this month features the new Painted With Love Specialty paper.

I am including a basic instruction sheet which you can download and print:

-18 Painted Love Card

This card was based on a design by Artisan Mindy B.  It features the new Perennial Birthday stamp set (pg 16 of the Occasions catalog).

While she used a watercolor technique I opted to feature more traditional stamping and a couple of extra stamps from the set.  Colors used: Peekaboo Peach, Emerald Envy and Lucky Limeade ink pads.

Not sure who designed this card originally but I loved how it features our new Stampin’ Blends!  Only the greeting is stamped-the rest is paper from our new Petal Passion Designer Series paper!!

Since you’re cutting down a sheet of paper no two designs are alike.  My customers loved playing with the new markers and each were able to create their own unique masterpiece.  A few decided just to color one main flower for a beautiful focal point!

If you don’t already have alcohol based markers the Stampin’ Blends are a must to add to your arsenal of stamping tools!

Great card for Valentine’s Day or to give anytime of the year to a loved one.  I CASEd the basic card from Kim W and added a couple die cut pieces-one of which is available for FREE during SAB!

Heart Happiness stamp set; Fresh Fig, Melon Mambo, Flirty Flamingo inks; Gold Glimmer paper; Sunshine Wishes and Celebrate You thinlits.

Inspired by a card designed by Nadine who I think is a demo from Europe…she did this card in all 5 of the current In-colors and it looked great in all the choices!

For my class, I chose Berry Burst to feature the FREE SAB stamp set: Heartfelt Blooms.  The centers were colored with a bit of Wink of Stella.

It’s Sale-A-Bration time again-YAY!  I will be featuring many of the FREE items you can earn when you place a $50 order through the end of March.

This back to basics card features 2 products available from Sale-A-Bration.  The Party Panda’s set and the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series paper.

A bonus for my first official card post for this year is an instruction sheet for this card!

SAB 1-18 Panda Love card

So sorry for the long break! As you know Oct-Dec is crazy busy for me as I participate in a couple of boutiques as well as getting ready for the holidays. I will resume posting regularly now that the holiday madness is over. Here is a Valentine-sy banner that I made for over my fireplace mantle (but really perfect for year around if I forget to change for the season don’t you think?  Because HIS love never fails).
