Thanks for joining us on this Crazy Crafters Blog Hop. We hope you'll pick up some useful tips and inspiration.
What is Saleabration? For a short time only, it's an opportunity to get a special product FREE with every $90 spent!
Possibly one of the most important tips that we can share with you this month is the reminder that Saleabration is sadly coming to and end so if you like the
Saleabration items -
don't delay as they won't be available after 31st March.

Something I really like about the
four bonus Saleabration items is that they go together really well. The Sheer Perfection Vellum Stack is a perfect match with the Nature's Perfection stamp set but also works very well with the For Being You stamp set - as well as many other stamp sets in the Stampin' Up! collection! The In-Colour Accessory Pack is also very versatile.
I've been enjoying these new products a lot - as you'll have noticed, since my last two Posts also featured these products! I really love that vellum!
This gate fold card has panels of Sheer Perfection vellum on the outside, coloured with Classic Inks and a Blender Pen. The closure features the Butterfly thinlet die. A sprinkling of Rhinestone Basic Jewels & Itty Bitty Accents punch cuts add dimension.

The inside of the card has a panel I stamped with the Nature's Perfection stamp set, using the masking technique - also coloured with Classic Inks and a blender pen.

Unfortunately, I seem to be making a lot of Sympathy cards at the moment. The next one is an easel card using Sheer Perfection vellum and flowers I made with the Flower Shop stamp set and Pansy punch.

Then, I coloured in one piece of the vellum using the Stampin' Write Markers, and made two really quick cards with it.
One card has a sentiment from Teeny Tiny Sentiments punched out
with the Word Window Punch and layered using the Modern Label Punch. The other is embellished with dimensional flowers.

Sheer Perfection vellum takes on different looks
depending on the colour of the cardstock
behind it. |

The final card I made is definitely not my favourite! I think I had a
bit of a reaction to making so many sympathy cards that it's rather too
blingy! I used a mix of Stampin' Up! Rhinestone Jewels and some "other"
rhinestones I had in my craft room that were different shapes and
colours. I found this really interesting because putting them together
really highlighted the superior quality and shine of the Stampin' Up!
rhinestones! I stamped the butterflies from the Nature's Perfection stamp set onto Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer
Paper and coloured them in with a blender pen.
On this card (I think I
threw everything at it!) is the Bow Builder Punch, Finishing Touches
Edgelets, Pool Party ribbon, Sheer Perfection Vellum and For Being You
stamp set.
