Sale-a-Bration starts! and the NEW Spring/Summer catalogue too!!

Hello there,

**This post is going to stay at the top for a while, please scroll down for new projects**

Yesterday marked the start of the most fabulous time of the SU! year!! Sale-a-Bration!! And this years choices are fab, take a look at the brochure HERE and if you would like your own paper copy then please do get in touch :-) 

My favourites so far are the DSP {Sweet Sorbet} yummy! The stamp set See Ya Later is also a winner for me too, plus the cute little Banner Blast stamp and matching Punch, which are both available as FREE products, see a couple of examples HERE

 So, how to get your free goodies...

Simply place and order of £45 or more and choose your freebie, you can order as many multiples as you like, no limits :-)

Host a workshop, I'll come to you and share a project with you and your friends and you can earn more free products for having fun!

If your wish list is r-e-a-l-l-y long then why not consider joining SU! with me, chooses £150 worth of products for just £99...

OK, so what to buy with your £45, I can help there too because we also have the launch of the NEW Spring/Summer catalogue too!! Sooo many nice goodies and I have a load of new products in my craft room to play with as soon as I get a chance, whoop! Another of the benefits of being a demo is pre-order on the new goodies a whole month before you can purchase as a customer.

To take a look through the new catalogue see HERE

So, how about a little card made with products from the new Spring/Summer catalogue?? This set is called Peachy Keen... 

 You can also get framelits to match with the cutest polaroid picture die cut shape, I need to play with mine soon so watch this space ;-)

 a touch of bakers twine and red glimmer paper decorate the bottom of the card

OK. Last thing for today is the new texture boutique, a lightweight machine for embossing folders is now available for just £26.95, remember you can add it to your SAB qualifying order :-) 

See more HERE

Whew! Lots to share today! 

Thanks for sticking with me today, back soon with more,

Peachy Keen Tag card

Hi there,

Gee, it's been a tad windy here today (understatement of the year)! I was half expecting to see the fence go or trampoline blow over tbh! On the plus side there's not much to do but stay in (and craft) in this kind of weather ;-)

Today's card actually uses the Fresh Prints DSP stack (rather than just being inspired by it's colours like THIS one was!) I do love the fresh colour combinations (they really remind me of the summer, bonus!) in this stack and chose with the striped paper for this card, this paper would also make a great guys card with just a bit of tweaking...

I would just like to say if I made this card again I think I would stamp the sentiment straight on the tag. You may have noticed I'm not a massive fan of things at an angle on cards (or anywhere really, slightly OCD, moi? ;-)) I just can't seem to get them to work and I always struggle when I do try! But now I've photographed it I can see that that would work much better? 

 The sentiment and squares are from Peachy Keen and I made a little tag with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, which is fast becoming my go to accessory from the Spring/Summer catty ;-)

 and a side view to finish today for you, you can see here I added some of the arrows (also from Peachy Keen) to the base card using Versamark to give a little interest...

OK, now I've finished sharing one of my cards (and many faults!) with you all I'm off to make tea before I take Flo dancing,

Thanks for visiting tonight, keep warm and dry!

Stampin' Hugs,

Rev Up the Fun! teamed with the On Film Framelits

Hello there,

I have had a lovely day out with my dear friend Nicky today and it's just what I needed, to get away from all the stress at home right now and have some girl time. We mooched round the shops in Lymington and had coffee and lunch out, heaven!

But now I'm back with a card I made for my other friends hubby who was the big 5-0! last week.

I started with a Crumb Cake base and added a layer of Sweet Sorbet (SAB) paper before adding another layer of crumb cake card and topping with this cute film reel framed image...

 I stamped the car from Rev Up The Fun! using Versamark and heat embossed in clear then added a light layer of smoky slate ink swiped side to side to give this emboss resist image some movement before adhering it behind the reel die cut from the On Film Framelits

 this Summer Starfruit twine (and the cork chevron) are the Sweet Sorbet Accessory pack, also Sale-a-Bration freebies :-)))

 And a side view to finish today. 

This sentiment is See ya Later and I think it's perfect for such a milestone birthday don't you? ;-)

OK, I'm off to finish cooking tea now,

Back soon with more!
