Paper Joy: Amazing You - Sale-A-Bration Spotlight!

Yesterday was a special day for my parents. They celebrated 49 years of marriage!! It has been such a wonderful blessing having the parents that my siblings and I have and I praise The Lord for them everyday! Definitely worth a celebration!

Speaking of celebration - we are underway with Sale-a-Bration from Stampin' Up!

During the months of January-March, you can earn free product with every $50 you spend! New this year is a $100 level - with 2 "larger" freebies to earn!

Today I am featuring the Amazing You stamp set that you can earn free with a $50 purchase. I don't own this set (yet) but my friend and downline, Michelle, brought it over the other day when we got together to stamp. I'm growing more fond of this set the more I see it!

I've created 3 cards - 1 simple and 2 "stepped up" but all similar with the flower layout. For each card I used my Stampin' Write Markers to color the flower stamp. Colors are Berry Burst, Sahara Sand and Old Olive. All 3 cards also feature the new Berry Burst 3/8" Metallic-Edge Ribbon.

For this card below, I tied a small 1" Circle to the ribbon and adhered the number 49. These numbers are in the Sweet Soiree Embellishment Kit - They are silver and white but I colored the white part with my Berry Burst Marker. I also added a tiny piece of striped Old Olive designer series paper (DSP) from the Sweet Soiree Specialty Designer Series Paper.

For the second card, I added a sentiment from Always & Forever. The Wood Textures DSP was cut out with the Everyday Label Punch. (This carried over from the Holiday Catalog - yay!)

Lastly, is a simple card. Aside from coloring and stamping, I just added the bow. Easy peasy.

And isn't this ribbon gorgeous!? I love it!

I hope you like these simple to advanced options of cards! Would you like to earn this set free? You can get your own set - in wood, or clear mount, with a $50 purchase.

Also, new this year is my rewards program! Now is the perfect time to start! Every time you spend $50 (before tax and s&h), you will earn a "heart". Earn 10 and you can pick out a $40 product free from me!
