Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend?
I have a quick CAS card for you today using a Sale-a-bration item and a new embossing folder that will be available March 1. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Beautifully Happy Photopolymer Stamp Set and the upcoming Basics 3D Embossing Folder for CAS my card today. This stamp set is FREE with a qualifying order of $100 during Sale-a-bration.

I started by stamping the large outline flower image, the bumblebee image and the sentiment from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a Basic White card front. I stamped the solid leaf images from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I stamped the solid flower image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink. I stamped the splatter image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in So Saffron Ink around the flower image.

I embossed the panel using one of the new Basics 3E Embossing Folders which will be available starting March 1, 2023. I adhered the panel to a Basic White mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. On the bottom of the panel, I stamped the small outline flower image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Soft Suede Ink. I stamped the solid flower image in Blushing Bride Ink and the solid leaf image in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I stamped the splatter and flower center images in So Saffron Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small outline flower image and the bumblebee image from the Beautifully Happy stamp set in Soft Suede Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the small solid flower image in Blushing Bride Ink and the solid leaf image in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I adhered a panel of Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions.
MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: BFQ24SXS
Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog! Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials. Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.
Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards!
Happy Stamping, Karen

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well. I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.
Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater. And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!
But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:
- You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly! OR….
- If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.

This can be anything that Stampin’ Up! sells that could be used as an adhesive! And for the adhesives that are $5 or under, two packs will equal one choice (see the items with the (2) on the list below) so if you select those, you’ll get double, YAY!!
