Hello, and happy Wednesday! Today's card is such a fun one. It was inspired by the theme challenge at TGIF Challenges this week.
I wanted to highlight the Stampin' Write Markers that are part of the starter kit offer during Sale-a-bration, and after seeing the theme graphic, I had to pair them with the More than Autumn Bundle. It was a match made in heaven!
I've used the Stampin' Write Markers in three ways on this card:
I used the brush end of the marker and colored on my Clear Block E with three different colors from the Brights Collection - Flirty Flamingo, Melon Mambo, and Berry Burst. Then I spritzed the block with my Stampin' Spritzer, and laid a piece of Watercolor Paper over the top. This created the background for my card.
Once the background was dry, I flicked the brush end of my Berry Burst Marker against it's lid to get some subtle speckles in the background.
Finally, I used the Berry Burst Marker to color the hearts on my coffee cups.
Here is a full list of products used:
Stamps: More than Autumn
Ink: Memento Black, Versamark
Stampin' Write Markers: Berry Burst, Flirty Flamingo, Melon Mambo

I am super excited to share a sneak peek of this month's Card Club kit with you today! These cards are some of my favorites that I've designed for this club in quite awhile, and I think they will be a great start to a new year full of beautiful card kits.
Most of the cards in this month's kit are birthday cards, so you can build your stash and be ready to send them throughout the year. Plus, what's not to love about the gorgeous Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper?!
This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is a sketch challenge. I love using these for inspiration!
I've paired the Hearts of Elegance Bundle and the Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper for my card today. I followed the sketch pretty closely, but moved my heart(s) to the opposite side.
I am in love with this bundle! It's perfect for Valentine's Day, but also for anytime that you want to send a little bit of love to someone. And those heart dies are amazing!

Hello, and welcome to this month's Creation Station Design Team blog hop. It has been a hot minute since I've been able to participate in this hop, but I'm excited to be back!
This month, our theme is Celebrate Saleabration. Saleabration starts on Tuesday, and there are LOTS of amazing choices this year! I've used four different Saleabration products on my card - see if you can spot them all.
Did you find all of the Saleabration goodies?!
I've started with the Day to Celebrate stamp set. This stamp set is perfect for any type of celebration - birthdays, congratulations, and more! I thought it was fitting for our theme.
The next Saleabration product I chose to use was the Starstruck Embossing Folder. I used it to emboss a piece of the brand new Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper. Yes, you can emboss glimmer paper! The photo doesn't ever do that glimmer justice, but believe me, it's sparkly and beautiful in real life. And look carefully at that embossing folder! At first, it just looks like flowers, but there are actually little stars in the centers. SO cute!
I've embellished my card with two more Saleabration products - the Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins and the Fresh Freesia 3/8" Seam Binding Ribbon. You might be asking where the Fresh Freesia Ribbon is hiding... this ribbon takes color really well, and I've colored it with my Dark Blueberry Bushel Stampin' Blends Marker. I almost like it better in blue! What do you think?
The beautiful cupcake and gold striped paper are from the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper pack - it is part of a lovely new suite of products in the January-April Mini Catalog.
Here is a full list of products used on my card today:
Stamps: Day to Celebrate
Ink: Blueberry Bushel, Pool Party
Stampin' Blends Markers: Dark Blueberry Bushel
Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Blueberry Bushel, Gold Foil, Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper, Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper

Do you send thank you cards after Christmas? I used to be really good about doing that, but have fallen out of the habit since having kids. I'm working on writing them again this year, and so I made this card specifically for some friends at church who gave us a few sweet treats for Christmas.
Here is a full list of products I used on this card:
Stamps: Humble Home
Ink: Misty Moonlight, Versamark
Paper: Misty Moonlight, Boho Blue, Basic White, Real Red, Pecan Pie, Timeless Plaid 6" x 6" DSP
