Sale-a-bration Blog Hop 2011

Well it's Blog Hop day and I'm very excited to see what everyone has been creating with the 4 New Exclusive FREE Sale-a-bration stamp sets which are available until the end of Feb. It's always good to get different ideas on how to use them and blog hops are definately a quick way of picking up a few tips. You may have just come via Fiona's blog and I'm sure you'll have seen some amazing inspiration there - she's a very talented lady. I'm just going to show you 'Sweet Summer' today. I did have 'Bliss' as well but it's the usual story...time running away with me again and no time to get the photo's taken. Still, I hope you like what you see. Today I am also hosting one of my All Day Craft Days and 'Sweet Summer' is what we're using for the main project, along with the most gorgeous 'In Colours'. So here goes..

The colours for this set are Pear Pizzazz, Poppy Parade and So Saffron. There are 2 other combinations too...

...Concorde Crush, Bashful Blue with Pear Pizzazz, and.... ...Blushing Bride, So Saffron and Pear Pizzazz.

I'm in love with this gorgeous Organza ribbon, it's so easy to tie a bow with and for gathering as you can see from this photo. So easy and to me it makes the card seem really lush.

Short and sweet from me today, I'm now off to have some fun!

To continue on with the Blog Hop, visit Claire - another talented lady.

See you soon!

I really like the concord and poppy samples. By any chance is there a template for the little sack? Rose Reynolds Ft. Worth, Tx

All your cards are awesome and the color combo's are just the best, I am truly inspired and can't wait to start using this set and finally start using some of the In color I bought, especially the poppy parade. Thanks for the inspiration here in California.
