#TGIFC460: Softly Sophisticated with Flight & Airy

Happy Tuesday that feels like a Monday! Was it a holiday for you yesterday? My kids had off of school for Presidents' Day, but today they went back to school, and I've been busy creating. 

I'm playing along with TGIF Challenges product challenge this week. 
 

Using Sale-a-bration products is not really a challenge for me at all! It was choosing which ones to use that was the hard part. I went with the Softly Sophisticated Bundle and the Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper.
 

If you can afford to earn both of these Sale-a-bration rewards, they make a great pair! The Softly Sophisticated Bundle is free with a $100 order, and the Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper is free with a $50 order. If you spend $150, you will also earn $15 in host dollars! 


 

Here is a full list of products used on this card:
Stamps: Softly Sophisticated
Ink: Garden Green, Flirty Flamingo
Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Garden Green, Boho Blue, Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper
Embellishments: Brushed Brass Butterflies, 2023-2025 In Color Jute Trim
Tools: Versamark, Heat Tool, White Embossing Powder, Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder, Thoughtful Expressions Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots
 

Happy Stamping!

Creation Station: Sale-a-brate Friendship

 

Welcome to this month's Creation Station Design Team blog hop! Our theme this month is "Sale-a-brate Friendship."
 

What better stamp set to use than Jungle Pals? I'm not sure a crocodile (alligator?) and a sloth would be friends in real life, but in the card-making world anything is possible!
 

I've actually used 5 Sale-a-bration products on this card. Can you spot them all?
 

If you're getting the Jungle Pals stamp set, you'll want to make sure to bump your order up and earn the Jungle Pals Dies too! There are dies that cut out the animals, as well as lots of fun scene-building pieces. I've used some of the greenery and flower pieces here.
 

So have you figured out all of the Sale-a-bration products I've used on this card? 
  • Jungle Pals stamp set (Level 1 reward)
  • Jungle Pals Dies (Level 2 reward)
  • Heartfelt Hellos stamp set (Level 1 reward)
  • Most Adored Specialty Designer Series Paper (Level 1 reward)
  • Opaque Faceted Gems (Level 1 reward)

Sale-a-bration is such a fun time of year! I hope you've enjoyed my card, and make sure to hop along and check out what the rest of the team has created. 
 
Next up is Julie Beltramo. I can't wait to see what she's come up with!
 

 
Happy Stamping!

February Christmas Card Club Sneak Peek

Yes, it's February, and I'm still making Christmas cards. Hi, I'm Rachel, and I love Christmas crafting. I also love not having to make all of my cards in a scramble when November/December hits.

This is how my Christmas Card Club was born. Did you know that I run two card clubs through the mail every month, and this one is actually the more popular one? Crazy but true! I guess I'm not the only one who likes to craft for Christmas year round.

This month's cards feature the Festive Tags Kit. I used the tags in this kit on full size cards, and they are so fun! Take a peek:
 

Usually, the card kits for this club include supplies to make 8 cards, but this month, you'll get to make 10, plus 5 gift tags! 

This club is $39/month, and your kit each month will contain $20-22 of product that you'll use on your cards (with some left over for other projects), all of the cardstock bases and pieces, envelopes, and a PDF tutorial with instructions. That price also includes shipping. 

You can join or cancel your subscription at any time, but for every six months that you subscribe, you'll get a fun little gift package along with your kit valued at $25+. 

I can't post the direct subscribe link here, but if you are interested in joining this club, please fill out the registration form here and then watch your email for a message from me with the link to subscribe.

Happy Stamping!
Rachel
