I want to quickly share with you the newest buzz over at Sparkle N Sprinkle. They've just come out with two fabulous new sets called Surf's Up (set 455) and Surfin' Woody (set 456). In appreciation for following the Sparkle N Sprinkle Blog Hop and all the Design Team Blogs, we're offering a ONE DAY SALE on those two sets before they are released to the public.
If you purchase one of the sets, you will receive a 10% discount. If you purchase both sets, you'll receive a 15% discount!!!! All you have to do is pay by credit card (so your total can be adjusted before you are billed) and place a comment in the comments section of the order on the Sparkle N Sprinkle website that you'd like the blog post discount.
Click on the sets above and scroll down to see what some of the designers have been doing with these sets. I've just finished working on my third card, which I can't show you until next month, because I'm going to use it for the Sketch challenge! But here are the first two cards that I came up with:
LIFE'S JUST BEACHY (click for full instructions)
As you can see - I'm still playing with April's Technique Tuesday (Acetate Resist) - check out the little shirt on the washing line!
.... and I used the same technique and my embossing painting technique in the next one:
CALIFORNIA DREAMIN' (click for full instructions)
I have had so much fun playing with these sets - so what are you waiting for? Go "surf" the web for the great deal. You have until midnight tonight to order!
... and as always thanks for stopping by!
I want to go to the beach now :)
ReplyDeleteLove the cards and your acetate technique rocks!
Two great cards Shona! Love the colors on your acetate piece and the white on your boards really makes them pop! Two fun - fun - fun cards!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love both cards! I especially like the orange background on the second one! The shirt hanging on the line is too cute!
ReplyDeleteGosh, Shona, both your cards bring back the memories - back in "those days" we could drive on the beaches, park in the shade, enjoy the surf, and head back home, laden with sand in our suits LOL We all wore the Hawaii type shirts and bathing suits! Wonderful cards!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the one using the Acetate! Very cool :)
ReplyDeleteLove these!!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards. You did a wonderful job!

ReplyDeleteYour cards are so great. I think these new sets are cool!!That hanging shirt is really so cute!!!
Memories.........makes me wish I had the Beach Boys playing right now. Great cards, but I especially liked the acetate one. What a fun idea to make the little shirt for the first card! Just wondering--did you use the archival black ink or another?
ReplyDeleteMiss you girlfriend! Come visit.
I saw this in the gallery and forgot to pop over here to tell you how absolutely fantastically creative this card is Shona! You've created the perfect beach day with paper and ink and of course, those rockin' SNS stamps!
ReplyDeleteShona these are fabulous! Love the tropical feel to the second one and the collage look to the first, awesome cards!
ReplyDeleteThis is my favorite set!! Love what you did with it!!
