Celebrate Weekly Deals - Feb 23 - 29

Hiya! It's been a few weeks since I shared a weekly deals post. I was sick with a pretty bad cold and I am finally feeling well enough to be back in the basement in my craft room.  Hope February has been good to all of you. Other than being sick, my Valentine's Day was pretty spectacular... lets just say roses, balloons, chocolate, gold jewelry... and lots of love came my way... It sure made my illness seem a lot less stressful. Oh... at the start of my sickness I was on a trip to visit my KC stampin' family... more to come in a later post about all I learned there.  So stay tuned!



Today I made my card using the Stars Framelits from our weekly deals.  My inspiration came from a similar card created by Shannon Lane from Crush On Colour.  Her card used pinks and yellows along with the stars framelits but I wanted to go with blues and yellows from our 2015-17 In Colors - Hello Honey and Lost Lagoon.  Plus I added a zip of sparkle by using gold glimmer paper with the framelits and the stars border punch.  I used those itty bitty star bits to embellish my sky.

Sale-A-Bration New Items!

Last week while I was sick, three items from our Sale-A-Bration catalog were removed and three brand new items were introduced. These new items will replace the others for the duration of our sale. I am pretty sure you are gonna love them as much as the rest of us!  Remember, you get 1 item from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure for every $50 you spend!

Those three new items are Metallics Glitter Tape, Party Pants stamp set, and Pedal Pusher stamp set. Today, I am going to share with you Stampin' Up!'s video showcasing the Metallics Glitter Tape...

Weekly Deals - Just For You!


Today's Weekly Deals project is a tag using the 2014-16 In-Color Markers.  I used the markers to quickly color the small elements on the tag. I have found when using a stamp that requires quite a bit of coverage such as the sentiment on this card, it is best to use the ink pad, rather than the markers, for optimal coverage. The markers work great to stamp less bold objects (unless you are going for a washed out or textured looking inking).  

Once I completed the stamping I went over all the elements with my Wink of Stella Glitter Brush pen from the Occasions Catalog... I am so loving that thing!  Check out Shack Scraps on facebook where I shared a cool tip I learned as well as a Stampin' Up! video that details that very tip.

Finally, I hung a couple of the Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons from the tag top so they would dangle down over the front of the tag. I finished the flower centers with Jewel Basic Pearls and sponged the Very Vanilla tag with a bit of Crumb Cake ink to match the Crumb Cake cardstock tag in the back. I love the look of layered tags, don't you!

Without further ado, here are the weekly deals for this week:


Don't forget, for every $50 you spend, you get FREE Sale-A-Bration items!  That stamp set used in the tag was a Sale-A-Bration set called Botanicals For You. There are some really amazing stamps in the Sale-A-Bration brochure... go take a look!

My Heart Smiles - Weekly Deals Project


This week's weekly deals project focuses on two products from our weekly deals - the In Color Envelope Paper pack and the Hearts Border Punch.  I used the Watermelon Wonder striped envelope paper on a card rather than on an envelope to show that this product is extremely versatile. It makes  a gorgeous card and also will line the envelope to give you flawless coordination.

I also used the coordinating Dotted Lace Trim and a brand new stamp set as well as the Wink of Stella clear glitter pen from the Occasions catalog.  This card could easily be made using the "Something to Say" clear mount stamp set that is also available during this week's Weekly Deals. 

If you already own the in-color inks, you could easily throw together a quick $50 bundle using the weekly deals and a few other items to create a stack of these cards and qualify for a FREE Sale-A-Bration item!

I'd fully recommend using the "big ways, small ways..." sentiment on the outside of the card and then put the "love you always!" sentiment on the inside.  Embellish with the scribbly heart stamp as well as the punched hearts to make this card utilize the deals even more! With every pack of the Envelope Paper, you will get two sheets of the striped Watermelon Wonder paper. Each card uses a 3x4" panel - giving you loads of cards from just one sheet!

Here's the rest of the Weekly Deals for this week:

To help you optimize your shopping during Sale-A-Bration I have created a handy shopping list planner for you.  To use this tool, just list the items you wish to buy in the purple section along with price, then add up each item (similar to a check register) and when your total reaches $50, or mulitples of $50, add an item to the blue section from the Sale-A-Bration brochure.  Then, when you are all done, take your total cost and plan your Stampin' Rewards!
