THANKS FOR MAKING ME SMILE

This card, which my girls made at the January Stamp-In Workshop, features something from a Hostess Set, something from the Annual Catalog (many things actually) and two of the freebies you can get with purchase during Sale-A-Bration. Keep in mind that Sale-A-Bration ends at the end of this month. Only a few more weeks!! Take advantage before it's too late.

The item from a hostess set is the darling sentiment. It comes from Make A Splash, found on page 73 of the Mini Catalog. Besides the fish and their fishbowl environment which I showed you in this post, Love in a Fishbowl, there are also four cute phrases. This is one of them.

Also featured are the Stitched Rectangles dies on page 196 of the Annual Catalog. I use these dies all the time. They are so great for layering.

The Sale-A-Bration items used in the card include the gorgeous Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper (page 6 in the brochure) and the Lily Pad Dies (page 4).

Following are the Supplies List and the Directions on how to reproduce this card.

SUPPLIES:

INSTRUCTIONS:

Fold a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Whisper White cardstock in half, creasing it well with a bone folder.

Add to this card base a piece of the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper that measures 4" x 5 1/4".

Using the water lily dies, cut two small and one large flower from Whisper White cardstock. Adhere these flowers to a 1 1/2" X 5" piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock, with the larger flower in the center, flanked by the two small flowers..

Using Stampin' Dimensionals, attach this to the DSP, leaving even margins on the top and the sides.

On a 3" x 1 1/2" piece of Whisper White cardstock, stamp the sentiment in Blackberry Bliss ink. Use the 7/8" x 2 7/8" Stitched Rectangles Die to cut out the sentiment.

Use the 1 1/4" x 3 1/4" Stitched Rectangles Die to cut a rectangle from Flirty Flamingo cardstock.

Cut a 4 1/2" piece of Blackberry Bliss ribbon. Sandwich the ribbon between the sentiment piece and the Flirty Flamingo piece and glue together. Trim the ends of the ribbon to angles.

Use Stampin' Dimensionals to add the sentiment piece towards the bottom of the card, about 1/2" from the lower edge.
