It's officially SPRING! and time to enjoy the Blossoming Basket Bundle while it lasts!

Hi everyone - if you haven't checked out the Sale-a-Bration bundle called Blossoming Basket then here's your chance before it is gone March 31st! The bundle consists of a beautiful Blossoming Basket Stamp set and the Basket Weave Textured Impression Embossing Folder - what a great set!!

Here are some pictures from the flyer created by the Stampin' Up! concept artists - they certainly know how to showcase our products!!  

This set is perfect for springlike cards (whether they are for birthdays, anniversaries, thinking of you, Easter or even getting a head start on a Mother's Day card) and this pretty basket of flowers will easily do the job for you. Take a look at the samples I have done, then check out your wish list - when your order is $120 or more, you can get these two items FREE and create your own gorgeous cards.

This card was fun to do at our Stamp Club last week - and everyone appreciated that the colouring was so easy! Did you guess that the main flowers were coloured with a sponge dauber lightly inked in Sweet Sugarplum to coordinate with the cardstock? Super quick to do and a great effect too - the leaves were done with the light Old Olive and Pool Party Stampin' Blends so the card came together quite quickly for everyone! Great card with the Happy Birthday option too! We added a touch of Wink of Stella on the flowers to finish off the card :-)

Here's another variation of the card -  and I accidentally grabbed my gold Wink of Stella (retired) so had to add some Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends to the flowers to tone it down a bit - kind of a happy mistake, I think! That greeting is from the Heartfelt Blooms Stamp Set - another Sale-a-Bration offering - in fact it is the #1 item chosen in this year's free offerings!

And here's a fun way to use the Basket Weave Embossing Folder - using the Tutti-Frutti Designer Series Paper Pack. I also added some stamped and punched strawberries to the card - looks yummy doesn't it? You will love that bright and cheery paper and it's super convenient 6" x 6" size! Perfect for card making and trimming envelopes too!

Order on line (click here) using my hostess code  RGS2UMHT until March 29th at noon, or send me your list to put in the order for you - either way you will get your free items and stock up on needed supplies too.

While you are looking at the options for this set, take a look at the video Stampin' Up! Training Department made for us - lots of ideas in it!

Have fun stamping this week and please share your springtime creations with me! 

Happy stamping!
