Have I told You Lately........

.....that I love this designer series paper???

I can't believe that it is available for such a short time - Sale a Bration Rocked!!  Only a few more days left.

I decided to do something a little different with the ribbon that is in the Everyday Enchantment collection.  We curled it like curly ribbon in club last month, I heated it with my heat tool wrapped around a pencil for the Limoge Trinket box a post or two earlier.  Wonder what I did with today's post????  Hmmmm.....


Well I have a scrapbook layout to share today.  I have VERY few pictures of my daughter and I together because I am the one always behind the lense......but one day I handed my camera to the hubby and he clicked a few pictures for me.  So I had to scrap it, right?  lol  Wanna see?

I just swoon over this pack of paper - {{sigh}}

Take a closer look at the flowers.  I used the mixed bunch punch and various flower dies in my big shot.

Did you see it??  Did you?
What I did with the ribbon???

Go back up and look again - now do you see?

Yes - I pierced circles on my layout and used the sale a bration ribbon to stitch on the layout.  cute?  right?


Well, thanks for checking in on me today - now to getr the little one out to the bus stop :)

SALE-A-BRATE good times -

COME ON!!   do do do do do do do do....... There's a party going on right here - A sale-a-bration that happens once a year!  Bring your good times, and your laughter too - I'm going to sale a brate my party with you!!!!

Now, maybe some of you will have that song in your head all day like I will :)  lol!!

I have a little Sale-a-Bration eye candy for you this morning.  Wanna see????

As soon as I saw the set, Sweet Summer, I immediately thought of a field of wildflowers being pollonated by little busy bees.  Did you have the same vision?  And It is a totoally FREE stamp set with a $50 purchase - Does it get any better than that????  I'm serious - Does it?  I don't think so. :)

I started by stamping my flowers out onto shimmery white card stock with black staz on ink.  I then colored them in with my blender pen and ink refills.  Did you happen to see the busy bee's dotted trails?  That was soooo easy to add in - I just took my basic black stampin' write marker - used the fine point and made little "flitts" of dots.  Super easy and I think it really added to the bees - do you?

Oh yeah! - I had to add some grass with two rows of old olive cut into slivers.  My sentiment is also a FREE stamp set through sale a bration - So Happy for You.

Have a wonderful inky day!
