One final project for the 2017 Sale-A-Bration promotion, which finishes today - a gorgeous birthday card that was a lot of fun to create at a demonstrator Stamp Camp earlier this year. It was designed by Jacque Williams and features the Make A Medallion stamp set, one of the Sale-A-Bration products...

Word stamps can be used for more than just adding sentiments. Stamping words repeatedly in a haphazard- or linear-style is a great way to create an interesting background or a focal point for your project. For this thank you card, I've stamped "SWEET" from the Cool Treats stamp set down my card and then highlighted the word again in the "YOU ARE SWEET" sentiment. The Cool Treats stamp set is paired with some of the other delicious products in the Cool Treats Suite, like the Frozen Treats Framelits, Tasty Treats Designer Washi Tape and the Tasty Treats Specialty Designer Series Paper...

Inspired by the photographed project on page 9 of the Sale-A-Bration brochure, I used the Delicate Details stamp set and an easy watercolour wash technique to create a subtle and textural background for this pretty thank you card...

One of the most popular Sale-A-Bration products for 2017 is the Hey, Chick stamp set. I think it's the cute-ness factor of those adorable chickens that makes this stamp set so appealing. They're also really fabulous images for water colouring. Here's one of those chickens adorning the front of a gift box created using the Baker's Box Thinlits...

Two of my most favourite products from the Occasions Catalogue are the Carousel Birthday stamp set and coordinating Cupcakes & Carousels Designer Series Paper. The imagery and designs are so pretty and whimsical and the colour combinations are gorgeous! I've already created one thank you card using these products and here's a second. All my guests at the Hamilton Extravaganza received a Mini Egg Carton that was decorated and stamped with this stamp set and designer paper, and filled with chocolates. To thank those that placed an order at the Hamilton Extravaganza, I made them a card to match their Mini Egg Carton...

The Mini Egg Cartons in the Occasions Catalogue are the perfect gift box for filling with Easter eggs. Here's my Easter Mini Egg Carton, decorated with the Cupcakes & Carousels Designer Series Paper...

I've finally had the chance to sort through everything from the Hamilton Extravaganza, which was held last weekend, and to take photos of the gorgeous projects we taught on the day. To start, I want to share what I created for my guests...

The Balloon Pop-Up Thinlits is a fabulous collection of party dies that coordinate with the Balloon Adventures stamp set. The star of this die set is the large 9 cm x 15.3 cm (3-1/2" x 6") bunch-of-balloons-with-banner die. This die is designed to create a cute popup for the inside of a birthday card. But that's not all it does. This versatile die cut can be trimmed down to use in a wonderful variety of ways.
