NEW FREE Stampin' Up! PUNCHES! FREE PAPERS! Life is 'tweet'!








Hey - hello to all!  Time is just flying around here and its Tuesday already which means it's my blog time! :)

My daughter and I made these cards not long ago, and in fact, I have a special person in mind to give one of them to tomorrow.  We know lots of winter 'baby' folks, { including myself since it is officially February - and my birthday is looming!}.  But - a friend of mine, a great fella, HILTON turned 76 just a little while ago, and so I will present this card to him.  Its really a good card as the paper colours and birdcage are not overly feminine and lots of men enjoy birds - so all is good!

CARD DESIGN
Its a really simple card - layering, and multi-dimensional dots to boost the focal point of the birdcage up. Elements of repetition are at work to balance the design well....see, the stripes of the paper echo the straight lines of the birdcage while the circular shape of the scallop trim is repeated in the circles visible on the paper, and the roof of the birdcage. All the colours are made to co-ordinate, and the layered borders around the birdcage helps to make all the colours 'pop'.  A bit of ribbon finishes the whole effect! 

CARD SUPPLIES


The card is featuring more of the papers you can find in the Sweet Pea Designer Series Stack - there's plenty to satisfy any taste in this offering: 48 sheets, double-sided and the colours range from soft pinks, vanillas, blues and greens to deeper hues of brown, rose, teal, greens, etc. There are graphic designs {stripes, circles, dots, etc.} and cutesy trees and flowers and elegant butterflies - very versatile. 

AND check out one of the new punches!  This is available in both a border and a corner punch - so cool that we have come so far in just a few years that we all can make gorgeous designs with the tools at our fingertips!  The punch is: SCALLOP TRIM BORDER - and its FREE, FREE, FREE - with Sale-A-Bration!  WHooo-hoo - AND the matching SCALLOP TRIM CORNER PUNCH is available as a separate purchase - so you can use it towards your $65 purchase to enable you to take the border punch home free. 

  The stamp set for the bird in the cage is.....FREE!  LOL - more goodies from the SAB cataloque...this is a different stamp from the same set, HAPPY MOMENTS, which was featured in the previous post.
