Good Friday morning my stamping friends.  Have you made any fun plans for the weekend.  I’m still baking and will be through the weekend.

Before I get to my card I’m starting an online Host Club for January, February and March.  I’m doing it during Sale-A-Bration.  Everyone loves to get free items, why not be the host for a month and get extra free items.  Are you interested in building your Stampin’ Up supplies a little at a time and want to be able to receive host benefits?  An Online Host Club might be the perfect solution for you!  With the new Occasions and Sale-A-Bration Catalogs starting on January 3, this is a great time to join!

You sign up for a 3 month term and commit to:

• A $50.00 minimum order each month (which will get you a free Sale-A-Bration item)
• Place your order by the 20th of each month
• Using the Host code for each month provided to you in an email sent out at the beginning of each month

Once 3 members have joined a random draw will determine your host month and you are guaranteed:

• a $150.00 Workshop order during your host month
• $15.00 minimum of Host Dollars to spend on the exclusive Host Stamp Sets, or any other current Stampin’ Up! product during your host month
• At the end of the 3 months you will get a gift from me.

If you are interested in joining, please contact me ASAP.  This is a great way to earn some free products and build your Stampin’ Up supplies.

Now for my card today I used the Stampin’ Up Birthday Statements stamp set along with a few other items that will be available January 3, 2019.  Take a look.

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the Birthday Statements in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I colored it in using my Balmy Blue (available January 3, 2019), Flirty Flamingo, Highland Heather, Mango Melody, Mossy Meadow (available January 3, 2019), Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I adhered the artwork to a Flirty Flamingo mat using Snail.

On a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped Happy from the Birthday Statements stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and using my Big Shot I cut it out with one of the Bunch Of Banners Framelits.  I adhered it to the artwork using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added a couple Share What You Love Artisan Pearls to the banner.  I wrapped a piece of 1/4″ Balmy Blue Organdy Ribbon, (available FREE with a $50 order during Sale-A-Bration), around the Flirty Flamingo and tied a bow.

I adhered a piece of Balmy Blue Gingham Gala 6X6 Designer Series Paper (available January 3, 2019), to a Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I adhered the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside Whisper White panel I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Colorful Seasons stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Balmy Blue mat using Snail then adhered it to the Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope by adhering pieces of the Gingham Gala 6 X 6 DSP to the envelope front and flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card.  Most of the items used today will be available January 3, 2019.  They are either in the new Occasions Catalog or the Sale-A-Bration Catalog.

Product List

Good Tuesday morning everyone.  Hope you’ve had a good start to the week.  Hopefully you have a short work week ahead.

For today’s card I played along with the Fab Friday 150 Challenge.  Be sure to stop by the Fab Friday blog to see all the projects made.  They have a color challenge this time.  Here’s the colors I got to work with.

I’ve got another sneak peek for you for this color challenge.  I used the Stampin’ Up Humming Along stamp set that will be available on January 3, 2019.  Take a look.

I started by adhering a piece of Wood Textured Designer Series Paper to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Snail.  I then adhered it to a Tranquil Tide card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the Hibiscus image from the Humming Along stamp set, available January 3, 2019, in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I colored it in using my Blackberry Bliss and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I stamped the leaf from the set on a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored it in using my Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I then fussy cut the leaf using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the artwork using a Glue Dot.  I adhered the artwork to a Tranquil Tide mat using Snail then I adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On another piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the Humming Bird in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored it in using my Blackberry Bliss,Cajun Craze and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I fussy cut it using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I colored a few Pearl Basic Jewels with my Dark Cajun Craze Stampin’ Blends Marker and adhered them to the card front.

On the inside on a Whisper White panel I stamped the Hibiscus from the Humming Along stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink stamping off twice in the center.  I stamped the sentiment from the same set over the flower in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Blackberry Bliss mat using Snail then adhered it to the Tranquil Tide card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the Hibiscus and Humming Bird on the front of the envelope.  I adhered a piece of Wood Textures DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked the sneak peek from the Humming Along stamp set.  These images are perfect to color with the Stampin’ Blends Markers.  Happy Stamping!
