60th Birthday - Twist and Pop

Hello, and welcome to my post.

A couple of Sundays ago, I spent most of the day searching for tutorials and ideas for a twist and pop card for something different for a friend's 60th birthday card.  We had a party for her last night, because she'll be away for the big day.  She loved it.

I found some inspiration from Angela Lovel (http://angelaspaperarts.blogspot.com.au/search?q=twist+and+pop), Amanda Bates (https://thecraftspa.blogspot.com.au/search?q=twist+and+pop), Collette Mitrega's YouTube video and instructions for a Twisted Pop-Up card on the Splitcoast Stampers website.

Here's my finished card.  The front needed just a splash of colour, so I added a butterfly and some candy dots.  I must say I'm pretty happy with it, considering I hadn't made one before or seen one done in person.

Sale-a-Bration 2017 2nd Release

Hi,
Today is the day.  I hope you remembered to check the new free Sale-a-Bration products available until 31st March, 2017.

I've just placed my order for a tad over $90 which included the Window Shopping Clear Mount Bundle, and have chosen the new Glimmer Assortment pack as my free product.

I just love the colours - Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron and Sweet Sugarplum.   The pack comes in 12 sheets of 6" x 6" (15.2cm x 15.2cm)-4 each of the 3 colours that co-ordinate so well with these Occasions Catalogue items - Cupcakes & Carousels (p8-9), Succulent Garden (p20-21) and Falling in Love (p50-52).

My wish list is getting shorter thank goodness... but so is my bank balance :-)

It doesn't take long for you to click the My Shop link at the top of the page to view all the great Occasions and Sale-a-Bration items and shop with me 24/7.  What are you waiting for?

Bye for now,
Robyn

Sale-a-Bration 2017 2nd Release

Wow, where have the weeks gone?  Sale-a-Bration (SAB) has been running for 7 weeks now.  I hope you've taken the opportunity to pick up some free products by spending A$90 or more.

As if this year's Sale-a-Bration wasn't already great; Stampin' Up! have added more free products that I'm really excited about.   Here's a quick glimpse of the the new products that will be available from Tuesday 21st February until 31st March 2017.

The Cheers sentiment is part of the Reverse Words stampset, the pink flower is made using some of the new glimmer papers from the Glimmer Assortment pack, and the Love card uses the Make a Medallion stampset.

Don't worry, if you had a favourite from the existing SAB brochure that you haven't ordered yet. They are all still available....the free product list has just become bigger!

Why not set a reminder for 21st February to check out the new FREE products that you can receive when you spend A$90?  I'll be placing my order then.

February Forgotten Friday

Hello and welcome to my first "Forgotten Friday" post.

This month I'm showcasing a retired stampset that's been sitting on my shelf since 2010 I think.  It's called "Upsy Daisy" and includes 3 sentiments.   I love the simplicity of this set.

I opted for Very Vanilla and Perfect Plum cardstock, silver glimmer paper (current products) and Blackberry Bliss ribbon (retired).  The flowers and sentiment are stamped with Perfect Plum. The sentiment is part of the One Big Meaning stampset, and is punched with the Extra Large scallop oval punch. Three rhinestones add the finishing touch.

Current Product List

One Big Meaning Wood-Mount Stamp Set [138788] $47.00	Perfect Plum Classic Stampin' Pad [126963] $11.50	Perfect Plum A4 Card Stock [108615] $14.00	Whisper White A4 Card Stock [106549] $15.75
Silver Glimmer Paper [135314] $8.75	Rhinestone Basic Jewels Embellishments [119246] $8.75	Stampin' Dimensionals [104430] $6.00	Bitty Butterfly Punch [129406] $28.00

Retired Product List

Scallop Oval Punch [119856] $31.00

Blackberry Bliss 3/8" Satin Stitched Ribbon [133668] $15.95

Upsy Daisy

[111710]

I hope you like my card, which I cased from an early catalogue.  By the way, I didn't deliberately choose the same colours as the heading photo lol. 

If you have this stampset, and haven't used it for a while, I hope I've inspired you to drag it out and use it again.  I'm sure there are several creations on pinterest if you want some more inspiration.

Remember to pop in on 10th March for my next Forgotten Friday creation.  Have a good week.  

Bye for now,

Robyn

Forgotten Fridays

Hi.

Last Thursday, I mentioned I will be starting a regular post to showcase some current 'forgotten' products or retired products.  At the time, I couldn't think of a catchy name.  Well, in the middle of last night a name came to me!  How does Forgotten Friday sound?  I think it's ok.

What's it all about?
If you're anything like me, you have lots of Stampin' Up! products that you haven't used for ages. Or you might have some favourites that have retired and just can't part with because you still love to use them.  Well, this is for you.  Some ideas and inspiration (hopefully) to brush the dust of those old favourites.

When will Forgotten Friday start?
At this stage, Forgotten Friday will be the second Friday of each month.  I hope you'll pop back on Friday 10th February to check it out.

In the meantime, remember Sale-A-Bration is still running with lots of great products in the Occasions catalogue and freebies if you spend A$90.  Here's the link to my online shop.


Bye for now.
