Valentine Hello

My upline hosted a team swap this month where we needed to use current product with a focus on love/appreciation/hello.  With Valentine's Day a month away, I thought I would try to create something with the theme of "love", but also wanted to keep it open so that the card could be used outside of just Valentine's Day.  I found a card layout template on pinterest that caught my eye, and I went with it from there!

I definitely was channeling a 90's vibe with the color combo and "splatter" (which is from the Peaceful Poppies stamp set).  Although it's a little hard to see, I did add some sparkle using wink of stella on the smallest stitched shape heart.

Option 3 - $15 
This option will just include the PDF and video instructions.  This option is for you if you have the Perfectly Plaid bundle and the paper/embellishments.

For all options, you will need the following in order to assemble the cards:
Adhesive (snail and dimensionals), Cherry Cobbler ink, Shaded Spruce ink,  Memento Ink, and clear blocks C and H OR block D.

The last day to order this class kit will be October 25th.  Per SU! Policy, I do not have any of this product on hand, so I will order, cut, and package up this kit after the deadline.  I anticipate to have these mailed out by November 8th.  Please email me at stampwithsarahg@gmail.com to order!

To A Wild Rose

There are some stamp sets/suites that call my name at first glance and I MUST have them.  To A Wild Rose was not that stamp set, however, after seeing so many amazing samples, I HAD to have it.  This set is easily one of my favorites out of the new catalog.  The sentiments are so good, and I like the option of two step stamping or coloring the images.

Here is a simple stamping version using a regular whisper white card base and ink!  I'm using Rococo Rose and Memento to create this card.

I love adorable 3 x 3 cards, and this stamp set is perfect for them!  This is stamped in Flirty Flamingo ink, and I've used Come Sail Away DSP as well.  I fussy cut the sentiment.

I was dying to use my blends on this set, so here is the first card I made with it.  I've used Highland Heather blends, and Purple Posy DSP.  The ribbon is Silver Metallic-Edge Ribbon (it's so beautiful!)

I couldn't stop there, so I created this card!  I've added in the Subtle Embossing Folder as well as the Petal Pink Jewels.  I used Petal Pink ink (stamped off) to create the color variation.

I hope you enjoyed these cards!  Happy Stamping!

Magnolia Blooms - Experience Creativity

Do you find yourself struggling to find time to craft?  Or perhaps you are having a creativity block?  Maybe you are just starting in to the world of paper crafting and you don't have all the "gadgets" and/or find all of the options overwhelming?  If you fall into any of these categories, you are not alone!  I strongly encourage you to check out the "Experience Creativity" section on my online store.

One of the products offered in the Experience Creativity section is the Magnolia Blooms Card Set.  I consider it a smaller version of the Magnolia Lane Suite out of the annual catalog - this set coordinates with that suite perfectly.

I used the Magnolia Blooms Stamp Set along with the Magnolia Lane Cards and More to create the cards shown below.  

The Magnolia Lane Cards and More are a package of cards that are so beautiful, all they need is a sentiment.  #SimpleStamping  I CASED these cards from the Experience Creativity brochure.

If you enjoy "stepping it up" and adding a little more than just ink, here are two cards with an extra bit of "flare".   I used the Magnolia Lane ribbon on both cards.

Products used:

• Magnolia Blooms Stamp Set (152729) $14
• Magnolia Lane Cards & More (152728) $10
