Sale-A-Bration for 2023 is sadly ending this Tuesday, 28 February. If you're wanting to receive one or more free Sale-A-Bration items with an eligible order, please make sure you place your order by Tuesday night.
When I first saw this paper, I'll be honest and say that I thought the large floral patterns were a little too busy for my projects. However, the smaller patterns on the reverse side of the papers were perfect for my projects. I do love having two sides to paper so I can pick & choose a pattern to suit my style of project.
The products used on these projects can be purchased from my online store if you live in Australia.
There's also three great value joining specials which may be of interest to you too and which are only available until this Tuesday, 28 February 2023. You can find all the information here, or feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Did you know that February is the 'teal' Ovarian cancer month with Ovarian cancer being the deadliest of all women's cancers? Until 9pm today, any donation to Ovarian Cancer Australia (OCA) will be doubled by their sponsors. OCA provide teal nurses to support women with Ovarian cancer (something which has impacted my family) and they also raise awareness of this cancer within the community.
I've donated today and have made this teal card for a special teal OCA nurse.
Please do what you can to help support this cause as more research & support is desperately needed given the 5 year survival rate for Ovarian cancer is only 49% compared to 92% for breast cancer.
I used the Stampin' Up! free Sale-a-Bration Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper to create this chocolate slider gift box and co-ordinating birthday card. You can find my video tutorial for this project at the end of this post.
These slider gift boxes can be made in any size and for any occasion. You can see how to make this chocolate slider gift box on my youtube channel here.

If you're running behind with your Valentine's Day cardmaking, this is a simple card which doesn't require any special Valentine's Day stamps. All you need is some letter dies, like the Stampin' Up! Alphabet A La Mode dies to create the word 'LOVE', some paper and embellishments of your choice.
With the heart stencil still in place, overlay the inked heart with another stencil and use the Blending Brush to add more Poppy Parade ink. This resulted in the diamond shapes appearing on the heart with tone on tone colour.
Add some little resin hearts to complete the card.
By using alphabet dies to create a card's sentiment, you don't need to have a special stamp set on hand. These techniques, both the double stenciling and using alphabets for sentiments, can be used to create cards for any occasion, not just Valentine's Day.
If you're not familiar with ink blending or using blending brushes, you can learn all about it from my video tutorial here.

I cut out a section of the Dainty Flowers paper, layered it onto a co-ordinating cardstock mat and adhered it onto the card base with dimensionals to give it some height.
Alternatively, you can use a modern take on the 'rip & flip' technique where you flip over one of the diecut pieces to show the reverse paper pattern.
Which do you prefer? The same pattern version or the rip & flip version?
