One of the latest offerings from Stampin' Up! is patterned fabric. For sewers and quilters, many possibilities for these products spring to mind, I'm sure. For non-sewers (of which, sadly, I seem to have become one, as my sewing machine gathers dust in the corner…), you may wonder what you could use the fabric for. This fun floral accent was created using the Fun Flowers Bigz Die with the Big Shot and the Springtime Vintage Designer Fabric. The flowers were die cut, then spray starched & ironed, but while warm, were scrunched a bit. The flowers then get stacked together as desired, and stitched or glued together, with a Vintage Floral Adornment glued to the centre as a finishing touch. These could be used for papercrafting, home decor or fashion accents. Non-sewers and sewers alike can enjoy the possibilities with Stampin' Up!'s designer fabrics! (Who knows, maybe the non-sewers amongst us will be inspired to pull out that needle and thread?!)
This is a fun birthday card created using some of the free product you can receive during Sale-a-Bration!
The image is from the set Bring on the Cake – in Stampin' Up!'s Occasions Mini Catalogue. Inked in Pacific Point, I removed the ink from the flames of the candles and re-inked with a Stampin' Write marker before stamping onto the cardstock. The Designer Series Paper is from the Ice Cream Parlour Designer Series Paper and Quick Accents Pack, and the ribbon is from the Ice Cream Parlour Ribbon & Button Pack. Either of these bundles can be chosen with each $60 in merchandise order. The Scallop Trim Border Punch echoes the scallop on the cake plate in the image.
You still have time to Sale-a-Brate…you can place an online order HERE (click on SHOP NOW) or contact me directly to place your order or book a workshop!
Your next party is sure to be a hit when you give favors and gifts in this fun vintage looking petal cone! This is a brand new product from our Occasions Mini catalogue which was just released last month.
You can use the banner element to attach a label or greeting to the petal cone and scalloped half circle to add huge decorative appeal to the flaps on top. You can also use these elements to create custom embellishments for any other cards or projects as well.
■ Die measures 6″ x 8-3/4″ ■ Use with standard cutting pads and standard premium crease pads

I love Stampin' Up!'s single Medallion stamp – it's such a great graphic, and suitable for all sorts of occasions! On this card, the image is heat embossed in gold on Elegant Eggplant, and backed onto River Rock. I got that colour combination from Stampin' Up!'s Colour Coach, and I admit, I was a bit skeptical at first, but in the end, I really quite like those two colours together! I also like that if my embossing isn't "perfect" on this image, it gives a cool worn / vintage effect.
This card will be / is featured in a number of my workshops these days because it's another of those high impact, low workload kind of cards – you know, looks impressive but actually isn't that hard to (re)create! Just my kind of crafting!!
If you're keen to host a workshop in the next while, I do have a _few_ openings for March – you can still get in on the Sale-a-Bration! Contact me if you're interested!
