Final Stamp Club cards for Feb.

These are the last two cards that we made at Stamp Club last week.

This one uses the Botanical Blooms bundle - DSP, stamp set and framelets - a pretty good deal I think. The card on the left is one I received at Quarterly but sorry to say, don't know whose card it is. I made the card on the right switching out the flower center to Cajun Craze and using a sentiment from Trust God. I love the sentiment!!

This next card proved to be a bit tricky - only because of the math involved!! I had mistakenly put the wrong measurements in the directions for cutting white panels so we had to do some "figuring!" The correct measurement is 1 3/8" x 3". The "For You" is from a Paper Pumpkin set. I had hoped to put all the flowers on a large block and stamp them all at the same time but I could not get them close enough since they are the rubber backed stamps and not photopolymer. So we just passed the stamps around the table. I really like the Sale-a-bration stamp set.

NC Demos SAB Blog Hop

Welcome to the first NC Demos Blog Hop! A group of NC Stampin' Up demonstrators have decided to start a monthly blog hop. We will be publishing our blog hop on the last day of the month. So make sure you mark your calendars and check out our blogs and our great projects each month!

For January, we have decided to focus on items from the Sale-a-Bration Catalog. Remember - for every $50 you spend, you can choose an item from Sale-a-Bration for FREE!! There are some great stamps and papers in the catalog. Also, there are a few items that are only offered for a limited time (pg. 16 - 18) so if you want one of those items, you'd better grab them now!

I love making Framed Collages so that is what I have done this month showcasing the Flowering Fields stamp set (pg 12) and Perfectly Artistic Designer Series Paper. Instead of making my collage in a 12"x12" frame like I normally do, I found this frame on my shelf and decided to use it. The opening is 9 1/2" x 7 1/2". I matted each DSP square with Basic Gray card stock and matted the whole thing on Smoky Slate card stock. You can see all the other items I used by scrolling to the very bottom of this blog post.

Next I made a card using the same stamp set and a few other goodies to go along with the framed piece.

I love the Pool Party Glitter Ribbon! (pg 9 Occassions) I also used other Sale-a-Bration items - Perfect Pairings (Hooray!) and Botanical Gardens Designer Vellum Stack (pg 4). I hope you enjoyed my portion of the Blog Hop and will hop on over and see what Mary has made to share with you.
