This year for Sale-A-Bration Stampin' Up! has two different levels of free products AND I believe this is the first time that a Thinlits die has been a freebie! The celebrate die-cut is one of the 3 Thinlits in this package.

This was the perfect card to use the Tutti-Frutti Adhesive-Backed Sequins. They are a perfect way to add a pop of colour to this card. Even better they already have adhesive on the back, so peal off the sheet and adhere wherever you want them to be!

Sale-A-Bration ends March 31, 2018. Make sure to place your order either online or directly with me! Now is the time to earn some freebies!!

Colouring is very relaxing, especially when you don't have to worry about colouring in the lines! I must admit that I wasn't very careful with my colouring job but it turned out great anyways! That is what is so great with this kit, the images are ready for you to use the watercolour pencils to shade the images. After colouring you can leave the pencil shading as is or use a blender pen like I have to watercolour the images.

These cards would be great for any occasion and if you want to make more cards there is a refill kit! The refill kit does not include the watercolour pencils, the stamps or block.

Stampin' Up! has this great video showing some tips and tricks for this kit.

Supplies
Stamps:  Lots of Happy card kit
Colours:  Old Olive, Rich Razzelberry, Sweet Sugarplum, Lemon Lime Twist, Sahara Sand, Basic Black
Accessories:  all accessories are included in the kit!

On Sunday my up line, Lisa hosted a shoebox swap at her house. Each person brought a card for everyone to make. It was a lot of fun!

(Excludes bundles and Sale-A-Bration sets.) Plus, the kit ships for free! Sign up here.


This is the card I prepped for us to make. I don't use the Wood Textures designer series paper often enough! You could easily change the look of this card just by using a different piece from that pack.

The frame on the journal box was highlighted using Smokey Slate ink and an Aquapainter. Also used an Aquapainter and ink on the flowers to highlight then a bit. A piece of Always Artichoke cut out with the leaf bunch was added to the 4x6 card to create some dimension.
