Here is a card made with another Sale-a-bration set, Friendship Blooms! I love the swirly stamp. I got the layout from Teneale on scs. I used elegant eggplant and wild wasabi (I wonder what those would taste like together...) and added some bling with the new fine cosmo glitter. Of course I had to use some of the new striped wild wasabi grosgrain ribbon!

Personalized Gifts
I love making personalized gifts so when I saw Lovely Letters, I immediately thought of using it with the Baroque Background stamp to create some elegant monogramed notecards with a matching notecard holder.
I got the template for this awesome note card holder from Julie Ebersole, her royal rubberness, when I went to a class she had a couple of years ago. There she is third from the left.

To make this note card holder, start with an 8 1/4" x 8 1/2" piece of cardstock and score at 4 1/4" on the 8 1/2" side and 5 1/2" on the 8 1/4" side. Trim on the 4 1/4" score from the bottom up to the 5 1/2" score to create the two pockets to hold the envelopes and note cards. I used 4 of the notecards and envelopes from the small note card set that SU sells in a pack of 20. So I can get 5 gifts from one pack!

Delicious Cards
Here is the swap card I made for the Oakland Regionals that I went to on Saturday. I love the pretty in pink, purely pomegranate, and close to cocoa color combination from the Berry Bliss dsp! It reminds me of chocolate covered strawberries! And I love how the Boho Backgrounds set prefectly coordinates with the Berry Bliss dsp as well!

Birthday Card
I love the new Sale-a-bration set, Birthday Whimsy! It is such a super cute set! This was the make-n-take for the last workshop I did. We started with a chocolate chip base with an old olive layer. Then we used some almost amethyst dsp with some wide chocolate chip grosgrain. We stamped a chocolate cake and added some of the new fine cosmo glitter.
