Petal Parade make and take

Only one week left to get a freebie when you spend £45 and that includes the lovely stamp set used here.

Sorry again the pic isn't 100% - I am having some picture issues!

This is a card I did for make and takes at my first two Stampin' Up! parties last week.

The stamps are Petal Parade and I've used some of the current set of in-colours again - strawberry slush card/ink, coastal cabana & crisp cantaloupe.

The tag topper punch is used and layered with some whisper white which I've embossed with a new scalloped embossing folder.  Label Love stamp set sentiment which is punched out with matching punch and layered on a baked brown sugar too.

Couple of sneaky strawberry slush banners added (free punch with sale-a-bration!) and 2 little butterflies with gems.

Some organza ribbon and a spot of twine to finish!

It wasn't until I layed out all the stamps and punches I realised how many things go in to a card - it certainly gives you a flavour for all the SU products.

Pretty Banners

Sorry this picture has come up a little dark but this is a more feminine card using the Banner Blast set currently in the Sale-a-bration offer.

Colours used for this card are Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding & Summer Starfruit.

The banners are punched out using the matching punch (of course) and an itty bitty punch is used for the flower.

The heart stamp is also part of the banner set.

Sentiment from a Hostess set called Express Yourself.

The twine, also in Crisp Cantaloupe, is also in a SAB set!

Birthday Banners

A really good 'man' card today (in these colours anyway).

The colours used in this card are Soft Suede, Coastal Cabana & So Saffron.

The background stamp is 'Hardwood' and in the new seasonal catalogue.

The gorgeous little banners are stamped in all three colours and punched out with the matching punch.
The punch and stamp set are currently available separately, each as a freebie with a £45 order!!

The banners are placed on some linen thread for a line.

Sentiment from 'Label Love' and placed on some white organza ribbon that I have coloured with soft suede ink to tie in.

Freebies only available until 31st March!!!
