LOVELY LATTICE FROM THE SALE-A-BRATION CATALOGUE

Anniversary/Wedding, Birthday, Congratulations, Techniques

Today I’m showing off two great cling stamp sets from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue. Presenting…….Lovely Lattice and Part of My Story!

Isn’t it just so beautiful? I see many opportunities with this stamp set – you can make that spray of flowers any colour that you want! I choose to use the colours that The Paper Players challenged us to use, Grapefruit Grove, Pool Party and Daffodil Delight. The fourth colour I choose is Mint Macaron for the leaves!

The greeting is from the Part of My Story stamp set and I did some “masking” to get just the word – friend.

TIP: I use scotch tape to cover up the part of the stamp that I don’t want to show. Just ink it up, remove the tape and then stamp your preferred word!

Here’s the list of products I used.

MONOCHROMATIC BUTTERFLIES

Hi and welcome to Cynthia’s Creative Corner! Today’s card is a study in Monochromatic using the beautiful Highland Heather colour from Stampin’ Up!

Of course, I started with a card base of Highland Heather cardstock! Then I added that beautiful piece of Botanical Butterfly designer paper that is Free(with qualifying purchase) from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue.

The butterflies themselves were stamped onto Shimmery White cardstock with Jet Black Stazon in and then overstamped with Highland Heather ink. I used an Aqua Painter to lighten the colour on the wings to give it a little contrast. This is just one of the cards we will be creating in the Butterfly Gala card class on Tuesday, January 15, 2019. Have you signed up yet? Visit my Class Calendar to save your seat.

Hello from the new Fable Friends Cling stamp set. This set is full of really cute critters and I picked the little squirrel image to bring greetings to you today!

There’s nothing like bright spring colours to brighten the mood is there? This little squirrel and his sweet daisy was just too cute to resist and he played in well with the layout from Freshly Made Sketches!

This Fable Friends stamp set is just one of the new Cling stamp sets that Stampin’ Up! has introduced. They are great – they cling nicely to the clear blocks (no falling off at the crucial moment). I know that you’re going to love using them. Enjoy this video below which shows you just how they work.

Hi and welcome! Today I have another birthday card to show – another in the family line-up of December birthdays!

This one is for our nephew and I thought that the wood textures designer paper was a great backdrop for the greeting and small spray of leaves. They were stamped first with Soft Suede ink and then I added some Old Olive ink with a small piece of sponge just to add a little colour!

The inside explains the “why” of It’s Your Day with a birthday greeting from the Sunshine Sayings stamp set.

Hi and welcome to Cynthia’s Creative Corner! December is a busy month not only because of Christmas but our family has quite a few birthdays happening as well!

I enjoy attending Cynthia’s card and scrapbook classes. Her studio is comfortable and bright. I really like the colour combinations she uses. She is very organized and does the prep work allowing you to concentrate on the techniques. She is very flexible, even if you want to make some changes to make the project “your own”. I highly recommend Cynthia as a demonstrator!

~~~Clara~~~

I really enjoy Cynthia’s creative skills and look forward to going to her classes and workshops. Cynthia always has fun and inspirational project ideas. She is always ready to lend a hand and help you where needed, if she doesn’t have an answer for you, she will do her best to find one ASAP. I would go to any one of her classes or workshops anytime for years to come.

Having Cynthia as my upline has been a very pleasant experience for me. She is always available to answer my questions and is very knowledgeable about Stampin’ Up products. I have attended her classes and they are very professional and well organized. I am always excited to share the projects she demonstrates with my customers after attending her classes. She puts a lot of thought and effort into planning her classes. I am very fortunate to have met Cynthia, and am looking forward to learning from her for many years to come. Thanks Cynthia....you are the best!!

~~~Leona~~~

Cynthia’s classes are set up very thorough and professional. I learn something new at every class and it is always a fun night out.
