Congratulations to my Team Members – December 2011

A sincere "From the Heart Stampers" congratulations goes out to the top sales people on my team for the month of December – you ladies rock!  And here's the special card that I made them:

This card features Bordering on Romance, a beautiful new stamp set in the Occasions Mini.  The main image is made with the Ovals Originals Die and the Big Shot.  Don't forget to use an Embossing Buddy over the card stock before you begin stamping.  Rub it gently across the paper to prevent those nasty stray pieces of embossing powder from sticking where you don't want them.  I stamped in VersaMark ink, sprinkled on some Black Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool.  Then the flowers are colored in with an Aqua Painter and ink from the stamp pads – Wisteria Wonder, Lucky Limeade and Island Indigo.  Wisteria Wonder card stock is run through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.  The pretty ribbon is part of a ribbon and brad bundle coming your way with Sale-a-Bration on January 24th – earn it free with a $50 order!  Includes ribbon in Lucky Limeade and Calypso Coral and 3/8" Printed Designer Brads.

Congratulations to my Team Members – October 2011

A sincere "From the Heart Stampers" congratulations goes out to the top sales people on my team for the month of October!  We also had an AMAZING month with 12 new team members joining our group in October (and 4 more in November)!  You ladies rock!  And here's the special card I made them.

With the pretty prints in the Timeless Portrait Designer Series Paper, it's easy to create beautiful color combinations!  Here I've used River Rock, Cherry Cobbler and Not Quite Navy.  Although the suggested color for the designer paper is Island Indigo, the darker shade of blue gives this card a more vintage look.  I've also used a snip of Newsprint Designer Series Paper sponged with Crumb Cake Classic Ink.  Sentiment is from Perfectly Penned and includes some Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding Ribbon.  Don't forget a bit of bling with Rhinestones!

THINGS YOU'LL NEED:
Item No. 122890 Perfectly Penned wood $16.95 OR
