Sale-A-Bration: A Happy Thing, Best Year Ever DSP & Accessory Pack

Today makes the start of the Australia Day long weekend and I thought I would share a card that I made at my last card class which uses Sale-A-Bration FREE products - the A Happy Thing stamp set which comes in Wood or Clear, Best Year Ever Designer Series Paper and Best Year Ever Accessory Pack.

My card is a case from the brochure with a few changes in colour combination.  Below I am sharing the you tube video of the masking technique which takes the single lemon into a bunch of lemons.

Sale-A-Bration: Product of the Week - Lotus Blossom

The gorgeous Lotus Blossom Stamp Set makes anyone feel like an artist in three quick steps.  It creates a beautiful flower that looks painted, but it is amazingly easy.  The individual stamps have a tab at the top to help you align them, and the tabs are numbered so you will know which part of the flower to stamp first, second and third.  Try playing around using one ink pad with the stamping off technique, or multiple different ink pads to create many different looks.
