Lillybet's Papers

Sale a Bration is on again. for the first time it is being run  twice in one year, so as well as the January- February special we now have August-September as well.  There's stampsets, Designer Paper in 12 x 12 or 6 x 6, Dies and some gorgeous Bedazzling Paper perfect for coming Christmas season- well who am I kidding, sparkle is perfect all year round!  You can see some of the products in the brochure video below. There is  a limited supply of three things which may run out of early so don't delay ordering to get yours Be Dazzling 6 X 6" specialty paper Sheep dies Summer Shadows dies I am loving the Counting Sheep stampset and dies, and the Be Dazzling pap er, Click on the images below for more details  This card is a direct CASE of the card in the brochure on the bottom left. I love the little balloon die which cuts two little slits to resemble the light strike on the balloon - so cute. I embossed the white card using a stencil and the soft embossing mats - turned out b

I'm not sure where I saw this fold originally, so my apologies to the original designer, as I have only saved the metric measurements when I redesigned it for our Australian dimensions. But this is a fabulous card to make- easy and with a wow factor- AND it showcases some gorgeous paper. I'm not sure what it is called but it has a pop up element and a swing element so I'm calling it a Pop-Up Swing Card. You can see some new paper from the Harvest Meadow suite, and the flowers are from the Sale-A Bration thinlits. And of course you need a spot for your message, and the back is just the place. This is version 2 with the papers reversed inside to outside, and different configurations of the flowers.

I am loving the images in the beautiful Season's Blessings Bundle, so it was a good colour combination to use with this set.  For this version I used the beautiful String Basket die, what a lovely effect. I decorated the inside with some leftover strips which are retired but match the colour theme- it's not often we have DSP which uses vanilla rather than white. I love to use ribbon but sometimes it's a bit bulky so I like to cut the new in colour woven ribbon in half and get the effect of using two strips of narrow trim. And another handy tip for these flowers uses the strawberry builder punch to create small flowers which I have stamped using the large flower stamp from this set. I love these. Thankyou Stampin Up for so many versatile products. I have several other samples using this set posted previously here and here Enjoyed this post?
