Stampin' UP! So Hoppy Together


Sale-a-bration 2019 is coming to a close, so if you haven't had a chance to earn these cute froggies for free, order today! This card is called a "Wiper Card". I first made one years ago, but I've been inspired lately by pop up cards I've seen posted online lately. I had forgotten all about the technique, so I used the Splitcoaststampers Tutorial as a refresher. When you pull open the card, the frog pops up at the top. So cute!

Cardstock & Ink: Garden Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Basic Black

Patterned Paper: Botanical Butterfly Patterned Paper

Stamps: So Hoppy For You

Dies: Botanical Bouquet, Layering Circles, Happy Birthday

It's been awhile since I've scrapbooked, but the new Butterfly Gala Punch and Stamp Set from the Occasions Catalogue combined with the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-bration brochure begged to be made into a layout! I'm pretty pleased with the results.

Lovely Lipstick Foil Butterflies - Beauty Abounds!

Once again, it's been awhile and my blog has been sorely neglected. It's not that I don't make things. I just don't make things as often, and when I do, I don't find the time to take photos and post them. This week I am taking advantage of a week off work to spend a little time creating every day. Since I have time to create, I will make time to post too. Here's a simple start.
My daughter received a Christmas gift in the pink box. As I was about to recycle it, I decided to compare it to my cardstock to see whether or not it matched Stampin' UP! colours. Yes, I routinely refrain from throwing things away because I "might" make them into a project someday. It's a bad habit, but in this case I actually turned it into something. While it doesn't quite match the pinks in Stampin' UP!'s line of colours, it was a beautiful complement to the Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets in the Sale-a-bration brochure. Paired with the absolutely gorgeous Beauty Abounds Bundle in the Occasions Catalogue, and the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper in the Sale-a-bration brochure, the foil sheets add just the right amount of glam to something that would otherwise have been recycled!
