The Sale-a-bration paper called, Irresistibly Yours Specialty Designer Series has been a huge hit this season and we only have 6 days left to take advantage of this goodie. (I know that I have a stash of it as wowzers – it is so fun)

Today's card is a super fun, festive and quick card that come together in no time and it is just one fun technique – I hope that you try it. The inspiration came from a video that Patty Bennett has on You Tube and I was excited to try it!

The best tip that I can give to you is to use a stamp set that gives you lots of ink coverage. Today I am using the Build A Bouquet Photopolymer Stamp Set. The (2) flowers that I used were nice and big so it allowed lots of ink to saturate onto the paper and then I used a sponge to burnish the ink in.

This is a really BIG stamp set and "background" style stamps are fun….I am going to play with them next to share a project with you! I let the sentiment today be the focal point!

The best tip I can give you is to have fun experimenting with all sorts of colors. I am really finding that I am loving Calypso Coral, it really gives you a fun pop of color. The other color I used was Crushed Curry…it always produces a bold, strong color but it is still bright (hope that makes sense)

Isn't this sentiment beautiful. I think that the font is fabulous and the little heart at the end is so special! I popped it out with a 2 1/2" circle punch and off set it with another one….I think that makes a quick POP.

Another product that I adore is the seam binding ribbon. I was thrilled that Stampin' Up came out with more colors….we now have 12 colors of this great ribbon! For a bow challenged person, this is your dream! I will be offering a Paper and Ribbon Share with the new catalog once it is unveiled!

Carrying out the theme of the card, I did the same treatment to the back flap of the envelope! To me it is a perfect finishing touch and please have no worries, the ink will not smear. I just used the mono glue to place it and once it dried, I cut away the excess!

There are butterflies all around this year in the craft world and I think that this little guy is very cute and wow – it is super easy to fussy cut out. A "glue dot" does the trick….again!
