Sunday Card Share - Happy Wishes (two ways)

Happy 2018!!!

I took an unintentional blog break during the holidays.  While on my blog break I continued to make cards and paper crafts for the holidays.  I just did not have the time or energy to share.  But now I am back ready to share some great cards that I received in swaps.

It is the time of Sale-a-Bration and the Occasions catalogs at Stampin Up.  A wonderful and exciting time after the holidays to earn free products.  Today I am sharing one of my favorite Sale-a-Bration stamp sets, Happy Wishes,  that is available for FREE with a qualifying purchase.   These are the only two cards I received using this set.  Both are fantastic examples of this terrific stamp set.

Each card is unique and varies in difficulty and technique.  I love the fussy cut image in this card.  It truly makes the stamp stand out.  The contrast of colors draws your eye to the stamp. 

The background stamp from the Wood Words stamp set is the perfect compliment for the flowers on the Happy Wishes stamp.  Stamping the background in the same color as cardstock add interest without overwhelming the lovely tri-color stamped image.

Check out the new 2018 Occasions Catalog from Stampin Up!!  You will find lots of inspiration to create inside.  I know I did!!

And don't forget...when your product totals $50 or more, you can choose a FREE Sale-a-Bration product!


Enjoy!!

Card Share Sunday - Ribbons of Courage

There is probably not one person reading this post that has not been affected by breast cancer or some sort of cancer.  Whether it be your own challenge with cancer or that of a relative or friend.  We all can name someone that has been touched by this devastating disease.  Today I am sharing cards made with the Ribbons of Courage stamps set and the Support Ribbon Framelits.  Here are three cards that I received as part of a Stampin Connections swap or Random Act of Kindness exchange. 

---

This stamp set is very versatile, it can be used to send encouragement to someone facing illness, send love to a special someone or just note to lift someone up.   I think the Ribbon of Courage is a must-have stamp set, that is also available in a Bundle (save 10%) with the Support Ribbon Framelit Dies. See the product choices below in the supply list and choose what fits your stamping needs best.

 

Send a Ribbon of Courage card to someone to let them know you are thinking of them.

Product List

143852 $27.00	143855 $19.00	143749 $22.00

Thanks for stopping by my blog, Tea and Stamps, today.  Breast Cancer Awareness month is October.  This Ribbons of Courage stamp set is so versatile that you can use any color for the ribbons to help support your cause!  The hearts can be used  for Valentine’s day cards! The new In-Color Powder Pink would be great for Breast Cancer Awareness cards, as well as Blushing Bride and Pink Pirouette.  The sentiments are thoughtful and the images are elegant.

Dragonfly Dreams Set - Catalog Favorite

Stampin Up introduced Dragonfly Dreams in the Occasions Catalog earlier this year and I was so happy that it was carried over into the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog.  It is one of my favorite stamps and Thinlet Dies.  It is one of those stamp sets that I will keep forever, it is truly timeless.  I made a card set with coordinating tote and donated it to a local business for their 30th anniversary giveaway.

 



Card Measurements:

 Smoky Slate  base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4

Blushing Bride layer 4 x 5 1/4

Whisper White Layer 3 3/4 x 5

Blushing Bride 4 x4 for Dragonfly

 

---

TIP:  I cut a piece of copy paper same size as Whisper White layer to create a mask using the Layering Ovals Framelits.   I used Smoky Slate, Blushing Bride and Pink Pirouette to create the background with the Timeless Textures stamp set.  To learn more about this technique check out this video on You Tube.   Thanks to Kim Williams inspiration for this card and a great video tutorial.

Coordinating Tote

 

 

 

This tote was designed by LeeAnn Greff and her instruction video has been up on You Tube since August 2015.  It is so easy to make, this is my third one and it is a perfect tote for my cards.  The cardstock is Rich Razzleberry, the DSP and Brads are retired, the sentiment is from a past Paper Pumpkin kit.  I have seen this tote decorated so may ways on Pinterest, it is so versatile.  Just jump in and make one today!!
