Grapefruit Grove 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock Archives

Hey Guys!

Every year after Sale-a-Bration, I have a Party for those who participated in Sale-a-Bration each month. Not only did they earn FREE goodies from Stampin’ Up!, but they get to attend my Celebration!

My husband cooks a gourmet meal of pasta (made to order for each guest). I have a scrumptious dessert for those who didn’t eat too much pasta.

After dinner, we got to make 2 cards which I will post about later. During cardmaking I bring out their first surprise.

I put candy in this, everyone thought he was stinkin’ cute! I didn’t come up with this, Susan Campfield made some like this, I HAD to make it!

Here are all the other things I made for my group:

Filled with M & M’s!

I got this idea from a video on someone’s blog……It’s been so long since I made it I can’t find the video anymore! If you know who did this, PLEASE let me know!

I made a card that went with this candy…….

Not sure you can see it, but the inside white is embossed with the Tufted Embossing folder. And for the inside of the card:

They loved the card but the thing they LOVED the most is this………

Inside the pizza box is a scissor Charm! Put these on your scissors handle and you will never lose them again! I put the initial of the person, a dog or cat (on Shrinky Dink) depending on their preference ( I asked them if they were a dog or cat person…..no context….they were so curious!!), a pretty beaded string, a tassel and then on Shrinky Dink I stamped the SU! Statement of the Heart!

I did a video if you are wanting to know how to make this! You can find it here!

PLUS we made two cards! That post will be on Monday so be sure and check in to see what we made!

If you are in need of a Stampin’ Up! Demo, I would love it if you would choose me if you live in the U.S.

Below are the links (in picture form) of what I used, click on any of them and you will taken to my online store! If you choose, for your gift from me for ordering, I will make you a cute Scissor charm!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hey Guys!

Here is another beautiful yet simple card!

This card is inspired by one I saw on Pinterest by Kristine McNickle. I LOVE Basic Gray and Grapefruit Grove together! It is a great pairing, don’t you think? See that cut out at the bottom? When the card is closed you can see the Grapefruit Grove peeking through. It is a pretty design element. The square floral paper is Designer Series Paper! Such a pretty and easy way to bring elegance to a card. I stamped the sentiment with Versamark and embossed with White Embossing powder.

The Beautiful Promenade stamp set, has a thinlit that goes with it called Beautiful Layers. This is where I got the feature at the base of the card. You can get 10% off the Bundle when you purchase both the stamp set and the thinlits. My next post will have another thinlit from this set, so check back in!!
