I love how this tag turned out! The layer upon layer gives it a lot of texture. Firstly I took a rectangular piece of crumb cake card and cut the two top corners off to form a tag. I stamped the dictionary stamp lightly with crumb cake ink on the cardstock. Next I used the ex libris stamp and crisp cantaloupe ink. I used the gorgeous grunge set to randomly stamp ink splatters in crumb cake ink. I sponged the edges with crumb cake and sprayed the entire tag with white spray and finally stamped the birthday stamp from the new salebration set. I punched a hole in the top of the card and threaded through a piece of hessian ribbon and tied it off with a piece of crisp cantaloupe twine (also saleabration)

Sweet baby
Today I got to have a play with a new set from the celebration catty. Firstly I stamped the owl image from the 'Baby, we've grown' stamp set in staz in black ink. I used my aqua painters to colour it in. The inks I used were summer starfruit, gumball green, smoky slate and crisp cantaloupe. I layered this image on a piece of so saffron card.
I stamped the sweet baby image in versamark ink and embossed it using white embossing powder and sprayed the image with some white spray. I tied a double bow using so saffron ribbon and stuck a safety pin I had lying around through the middle of it. Lastly the background dsp I used is from the new set 'watercolour wonder'.

playing with the celebration catty
I am so excited about the new celebration catalogue. As demonstrators we have been privileged to play with products a month earlier than they are available to the public. My pre-order arrived yesterday and I excitedly sat down to make my first card today. The base of this card the made with the new 'Hardwood' stamped on whisper white cardstock with crumb cake ink. I sponged the edges and used the good old gorgeous grunge to add some texture. I stamped 3 feathers from 'fine feathers' in versa mark and embossed them with white embossing powder and sponged over the top of them in crisp cantaloupe ink. I then sprayed it with some white spray and sponged the edges white ink and stuck it on a larger piece of crisp cantaloupe cardstock.
I embossed the sentiment from 'a dozen thoughts' in white embossing powder on baked brown sugar cardstock and sponged the edges with white ink. I used the sticky strip to attach a piece of the new gold sequin trim and under that I used a strip of the natural chevron ribbon. At the top of the card I used a new metallic mini clothes pin (gold) and on top of that I placed a double bow using the new gold bakers twine (the gold part I detached and placed under the crisp cantaloupe card).

Punch Board gift box with cards
The project I am featuring here is also a class I'm running this month. It features the Sweet Sorbet dsp that is available to demonstrators only this month and to everyone else during saleabration beginning January 28th. The few products this year are divine!
This gift box uses a piece of card 8x8 inches and fits 3 4x4 cards and 3 vellum envelopes. The box is scored on the 3.5 inch mark and then again on the 4.5 inch mark on all four edges. I have rounded the edges and glued it together and then embellished it as seen.
For the vellum envelopes I have used a piece of vellum measuring 6 7/8 x 6 7/8 and scored it at the 3.5 inch mark.
