Sale-a-bration Card

There are only a few days left to get your free goodies during Sale-a-bration. So I made this card with all SAB items and with the Splitcoast Sketch#324 here.
The base is Peach Parfait card stock and I added papers from the Ice Cream Parlor DSP. I stamped thinking of you from So Happy For You in Peach Parfait. I threaded a Melon Mambo button from the Ice Cream Parlor Ribbon & Button Pack with a sliver of Peach Parfait. I punched a Daffodil Delight circle with the 1 inch Circle punch and added a couple of Ice Cream Parlor Quick Accents for the focal point.
Here's my recipe:
Stamps: So Happy For You
Papers: Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Peach Parfait, Ice Cream Parlor DSP
Inks: Peach Parfait
Accessories: 1 inch Circle punch, Ice Cream Parlor Quick Accents Pack & Ribbon & Button Pack

Got Green for Two Challenges

This St. Patrick's Day card was made using the Clean & Simple Stamping FTL#131 here, and the Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge#43 here.
The base is Early Espresso card stock and I added some Old Olive DSP from the Patterns DSP Brights Stack. I ran two pieces of Old Olive thru the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch. I stamped the shamrock from Got Treats in Old Olive on Whisper White twice, punching one out with the 1 1/4 inch Circle punch and the other out with the 1 3/8 inch Circle punch.  I stamped the shamrock from So Happy For You in Old Olive and punched that out with the 1 inch Circle punch. I punched a 1 3/8 inch Circle and 1 3/4 inch Scallop Circle in Old Olive. I punched a  1 1/4 inch Circle and Modern Label punch in Early Espresso.

Birthday Card for a Sketch and a Challenge

I made this birthday card with the MojoMonday sketch#179 here and for the SUO Challenge#13, Sale-a-bration Creations here.
I started with a Melon Mambo base, added some Daffodil Delight and then some Ice Cream Parlor DSP. I also used some of the Ice Cream Parlor Quick Accents. I punched a Melon Mambo piece with the 2 3/8 inch XL Scallop Circle punch and a Daffodil Delight piece with the 1 3/4 inch XL Circle punch. I trimmed down some DSP for the horizontal piece and added some more Quick Accents. I used my Melon Mambo Stampin Write marker to color the sentiment from So Happy For You, masking it off so that I could stamp it vertically rather than horizontally. I popped up the sentiment and the scallop circle piece with Stampin dimensionals. Finally, I added three little circles from the Quick Accents to the upper right corner.

Sale-a-bration Sneek Peek

It's only 10 days until Sale-a-bration and thought I'd share a card using some SAB goodies. I found this great blog, Stampin' Celebration, that features weekly inspiration challenges and I just had to play with this week's challenge. See SCIC#35 here.
I also used an older Splitcoast sketch#312 here that I hadn't used due to the craziness of the holidays.
I started with a base of Pacific Point, added some Old Olive and Daffodil Delight behind some Ice Cream Parlor DSP from the SAB brochure. Even the little rectangle has more DSP from Ice Cream Parlor. I stamped the balloons from Crazy for Cupcakes with Basic Black on Daffodil Delight, Pacific Point and Old Olive and cut them out. The Pacific Point one is popped up with Stampin dimensionals. Finally, the sentiment from another SAB set, So Happy For You, was stamped in Pacific Point on Whisper White.

I used the heart stamp from the SAB set, So Happy For You, and stamped it three times in Pretty in Pink, Melon Mambo and Cherry Cobbler.

A silver brad was added to the center and it all was popped up with Stampin dimensionals. "Thanks" from the SAB set, So Happy For You, was stamped in Pear Pizzazz on Whisper White and punched out with the Word Window punch.
