PPA 270

Isn't this a beautiful color combination?!  It's so rich looking.  I decided to make a sympathy card because it seems I never build a stash of them!  I am also trying to get a pile ready for a craft fair coming up in early December.  That was one item I didn't have many of last year, and I got a lot of requests for them.  Please let me know what you think.  I really love reading your comments!

We would love to have you join us!  It's a fun way to make you think outside the box.  I love trying new color combinations and sketches!

Irresistibly Fun Technique

I saw this fun technique on Patty Bennett's blog.  You start with Stampin' Up!'s Sale-a-bration freebie, Irresistibly Yours dsp.  It is gorgeous!  It's a white on white embossed paper in four patterns. I've used it previously and loved it, but this technique is awesome!  Check out Patty's video here: Patty Stamps.  Hers is gorgeous!

I stamped with the Flower Patch stamp set on top of the Irresistibly Yours paper, then took sponges and rubbed it to take off the ink from the embossed part and push it out past the flower.  I used Blackberry Bliss, Bermuda Bay and Old Olive.  I wish you could see how pretty this paper is!  I kept my card simple because I wanted the paper to show more, and because of what it's being used for.

Sale-a-bration only lasts until March 31, so don't hesitate if you want something for FREE!! Stampin' Up! added more items since Blendabilities are no longer offered.  Everything is "while supplies last" so don't wait!  Click here to view all Sale-a-bration items:  SAB
