Thursday of the week long celebration. My Virtual Open House continues.
How does Sale-a-bration work?
Different ways for different people. Heeheee.

Sale-a-bration is an exciting time and it only comes by once a year. Make sure you take advantage of it.
We received a Facebook message from Stampin' Up! Punch bunch is the stamp set that is flying out the window right now at the distribution center. I love that set as well!
All of the samples for today use the Stamp Set Punch Bunch from the Sale-a-bration catalog.


This is definitely a card I am casing! Love the look of this. Colors are poppy parade, early espresso and wild wasabi. The patterned paper is Hostess Only paper Dina did a fantastic job!

Details, details, who needs details? This card has them all!! The Punch Bunch stamp set was paired with Tiny Tags and Hand Knit Colors used are Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze, Marina Mist, So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, and Cajun Craze. Phyllis spent some time on this card J.

Many times I look at our color coach to choose colors that go well together. But, I should go easy on myself and go monochromatic. Love the look and I forget to use it!! Judy paired Very Vanilla and Basic Black and came up with a stunning card. The stamp set Just Believe was paired with Punch Bunch. She used the Neutrals Designer Series Paper with the First Edition Designer Series Paper.

If one punch is good, then three is better, right? Punch out the owls and the Happy Birthday and put together a fun card. Sandy reacted this card using Bashful Blue, Night of Navy and Pumpkin Pie.

A couple of very cute things to note on this card from Leilani. See that middle section? 5/8" whisper white ribbon. Then, a strip of cardstock punched using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Punch.

The other thing that I think is really cute is the little trinket buttons. Way cute. What a detail to add!!

Colors used are note quite navy, so saffron, poppy parade, and whisper white.


When there is a small stamp in a set, I have troubles adding that image to a 4 ¼ x 5 1/2 . I am going to keep this sample around. That patterned paper makes the card!
Kathy used Greenhouse Gala paper and the colors that are in the paper – pear pizzazz, baja breeze, and whisper white.

Here is another great way to pair patterned paper with a small stamp. Elegant Soiree is the patterned paper. Monochromatic card was made by Katie. Baja Blue was used.

So many Sale-a-bration things here. Punch bunch was used twice! The ribbon and the circle of patterned paper are also Sale-a-bration items. Sue used pacific point and Daffodil delight for colors.

Way too many puches. Really, can you use too many punches on a card? Absolutely not!! Jane used scallop square, build a cupcake, 2 ½ circle, and 2 3/8 cirlce punches. Gotta love it!! Designer Series paper is the Love Birds paper – and that sets the colors that are used on the card.
Off to do more stamping. Playing nurse today as well. And, I am not a good player. Influenza Type B for one of the kiddos. Diagnosed yesterday. You'd think I could get a lot of stamping done, but it probably won't happen. With kids, they think that nursing duty also includes maid and waitress services. How does that happen?
