Sad to See Them Leaving

Hello! Welcome back to the Sisters in stamping blog, we are feeling a little sad this week....the Annual Stampin' Up! Retirement list came out this week and well, there were some favorites on it. This week's post is our last hurrah for them.

 

 Here is Debbie's card for this week, she made this lovely scene using Serene Silhouettes. Here is the link to her blog, you can go and find out to make this awesome card yourself.

Next is Rachel's card, she used the Bountiful Border set for her Sad to See Retire card. And some other retiring things as well, here is the link to go check it out.

Flowers, Flowers, Flowers

  Spring, the time of year when all the flowers are beginning to bloom everywhere around you. So bright and fresh and you just want to be outside to enjoy them. We thought we would share some great stamped and paper flowers with you today in the spirit of all blooming flowers.

  This is Rachel Yurkanin's card using the botanical garden framelits to make her card. Black and white and a pop of pink. Check out her blog for more information.

  Debbie created this CASE'd birthday card with matching stamped gift box featuring the retiring Summer Silhouettes stamp set and Hello Honey In Color that is perfect for adding a small gift (jewelry maybe?!).  Please hop over to her blog post here for more details about this project.

  And last but not least is this great card designed by Karla Anders which also features a retiring stamp set - Vivid Vases.  Be sure to visit her blog post here to get more information about her card.

We hope you are able to get outside this weekend and enjoy some of the beauty around you.

Thanks for stopping by,

Today the Sisters In Stamping wanted to share projects featuring items from the Weekly Deals promotion and Clearance Rack products.  Whether you've just had to cough up some bucks to ol' Uncle Sam, or getting a tax refund, it's a great time to check out what's on sale!

Debbie Naylor used Clearance Rack products to create an awesome dry-erase board with Into the Woods Designer Series Paper and embellished the frame with a fabric flower she built using the Flower Frenzy Bigz L die.  The Bigz dies are great for cutting images using alternative materials or bulk cardstock with your Big Shot.  Visit Debbie’s blog here to learn more.

Rachel Yurkanin used the Baker’s Box Thinlits Dies from the Weekly Deals promotion to make this super cute birthday favor box.  Read more about this brightly colored box on Rachel’s blog here.

I used the Stars Framlits Dies from the Weekly Deals for this fun birthday card.  I also pulled a few embellishments from the Clearance Rack using the 2013-2015 In Color Sequin Assortment and some Lost Lagoon ribbon.  Head over to my blog here for more details!

Thanks so much for dropping by for a visit on this Fabulous Friday!  Be sure to contact your demonstrator and check out all the great sales going on, especially those on the Weekly Deals since they will be going away for good on April 18^th.  Have a fantastic weekend!
