Yes Sale-A-Bration time is here and a few of us have got together to celebrate with a little blog hop.
You may have arrived here from the lovely Ros Davidson's site or you may just be starting here ... but however you have found this page it's okay - you can follow the links and see all of the creations.
I make no apologies for using my most favourite technique - I love brayering. Here I have used three of the four sets that are available FREE if you spend $100 or more or host a workshop with more than $600 in sales .... can you guess which ones?
The colours are Poppy Parade, So Saffron, Very Vanilla and Basic Black and this is a card we made at a recent workshop for a make and take.
The lovely lace is of course from the Summer Mini - sadly this will end on 31 March - no more lace after that :(
And here is a 'stepped up' version of the same card. This time I have used a sponge to emphasise the sun's rays as well as a brayer and some lovely pearls for the butterflies. This card is heading its way to a lovely friend and fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator who celebrate's her birthday on Monday.
So if you'd like to make the same card at your workshop give me a call now to book (0428 254 952) and I am offering a little blog candy today too ....
Name all three Sale-a-Bration sets used to make these cards and I'll pick a name out of the hat to receive the 'thanks' card - I'll send it with an envelope for you to use next time you want to say thank you to someone special.
So off you hop to a lovely friend of mine Christine Blain - she is sure to have something lovely to show you.
Thanks for hopping and see you next week for more inspiration.
Happy stampin!
Nikki

Wow Nikki that looks really great! Such a different way to use that set. Love it.
I love the sun effect Nikki, looks fantastic!!
love the brayering and sponging, what about those colours they just go together so well.
What a great idea to do a stepped up version. Both cards are fabulous - the colours are fantastic.
3 Sale-a-bration sets in one card! Go you! Well done :o)
This is really lovely. I like the look of brayering but it is still something that is on my to do list. I also like your idea of using pearls for the butterflies.
Gotta practice that brayering - you make it look really easy Nikki!
Absolutely beautiful Nikki. Love all of it.
Well done - beautiful colours, like the effects on the second card like rays coming from the sun.
Your brayering is so effective Nikki what fabulous cards
Brayering is awesome isn't it! Gorgeous sunsets Nikki. Love them.....
