The second release of Sale-A-Bration saw the inclusion of three gorgeous items of which I purchased two – the All Adorned Stamp Set and the Country Floral Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Please remember that these items are available FREE when you spend $90 on products from the Annual or Occasions Catalogues. You can view the brochure for the second release of Sale-A-Bration items here. It includes information in regards to all items available during Sale-A-Bration which runs from 3 January to 31 March. So if you would like to make cards using the beautiful All Adorned Stamp Set you will need to get in quickly as time is running out!

My cards are all basically the same. I just used a different colour scheme for each one based on a doily from the Coloured Doilies embellishment pack. I love these little doilies which are available in a pack of 24 and feature the colours Coastal Cabana, Flirty Flamingo, Grapefruit Grove and Old Olive. I used the ‘Just for You’ sentiment from the Dear Doily Bundle. I thought that this was a perfect sentiment to use as it covers so many different occasions and therefore makes the cards very versatile. For example: Just for You…on your birthday, Just for You…for Mother’s Day and Just for You…because you are feeling unwell.

I love the Art Deco style of this stamp set and this corner motif is lovely. Here I have used it on a 10cm square piece of Whisper White but it would also work on a rectangular piece of cardstock as well. For my matts a used a range of designer series papers. The gingham piece is from the Occasions Catalogue. The black and white piece is from Butterfly Botanical which is also a Sale-A-Bration item and the other two are pieces I have had in my scrap box for years, however, the Designer 6 x 6 paper packs are excellent for matts and are available to coordinate with all ink and cardstock colours.

This additional card uses the other motifs from the stamp set. My inspiration for this colour scheme was the gorgeous Coastal Cabana/Granny Apple Green reversible ribbon. These motifs remind me of beautiful Moroccan or Turkish tiles. (Ahh! I have an idea. Stay tuned!)

These are just two examples of how you might use the super versatile All Adorned Stamp Set. I am working on others and will include them in an upcoming post.

If you live in Australia and would like to purchase any of the products I used when creating these cards please follow the links below. If you would like to know how I made these cards I am only too happy to assist, so send me a message.

Thanks and regards, Michele.
