<p class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">INK TO PAPER
TECHNIQUE</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Ever wonder if there was a simple technique out there that
would take your project to the next level yet not take hours to do? We all love
a WOW project and we love it more when we can step it up with a simple
technique. The first card below is a simple card project that was transformed
to WOW in a matter of a few seconds in the card that follows. Let me show you
how.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">SUPPLIES:</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">STAMPS:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Everything
Eleanor (w124162, c124164)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">INK:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Crumb Cake Ink
Pad (126975), Early Espresso Ink Pad (126974), Raspberry Ripple Stampin’ Writer
(126856 set)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">CARDSTOCK: Crumb Cake (120953), Early Espresso (119686)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ACCESSORIES: Big Shot (113439), Lacy Brocade Textured
Impressions Embossing Folder (127819), Dimensionals (104430), Stamping Spongs
(101610), Naturals Designer Buttons (127554), Linen Thread (104199), Stitched
Satin Ribbon (Raspberry Ripple 126845), Stampin’ Embossing Powder ( White
109132), Heat Tool (129053), Versa Mark (102283), Glue Dots (103683), Snail
Adhesive (104332)</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">INSTRUCTIONS:</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Fold a piece of 11” X 4 ¼” sheet of Crumb Cake CS in half.
Place the front side of the card you just folded into the Lacy Brocade
Embossing Folder and run it through the Big Shot on Tab 1. Keep the card in the
folded position. Take the Crumb Cake ink pad and rub it onto the raised portion
of the embossed card. Set this part aside. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Take a 2 ½” X 3 ¼” piece of Crumb Cake and stamp the large
flower from the Everything Eleanor with Versa Mark and then stamp on the paper.
Sprinkle White Embossing Powder on the stamped image and heat with Heat Tool
until the powder melts to a shiny white. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Stamp the swirl image from the same set and stamp around the
image in Crumb Cake. Color the flower in Raspberry Ripple. Wipe off excess that
lays on top of the embossed image for a crisper, cleaner look. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Tear around the stamped image close to the edge. Using a
sponge and Early Espresso Ink, sponge around the torn edges.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Adhere the Raspberry Ripple ribbon at the bottom edge of 3”
X 4 1/8” piece of Early Espresso. Thread the button with Linen Thread and tie
into a bow. Using Glue Dots, adhere to ribbon on left side.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Glue the Early Espresso piece of<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>CardStock with the ribbon and button onto the
Embossed front of the card. Be sure to center it. Put four dimensionals on the
back of the floral image piece and adhere to the top of the Early Espresso Card
Stock.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now all you need is a fabulous greeting for the inside. </p>

<li>Beginning on April 4, 2013, all retiring/discontinued color 
products (i.e. ink, paper, ribbon, accessories, etc.) will be available 
only while supplies last. This means that some products will not be 
available through the retired list period.  The retiring color products 
are only available while supplies last so they can get your favorites 
and look forward to the exciting colors coming in the 2013-2014 annual 
catalog. And also announced today, free shipping is going on April 6-8, 
2013, which would be a great time for you to get your favorites before 
they are gone! (Free shipping is for North America only)</li>
<li>Due to unforeseen problems with SU's supplier for Watercolor 
Wonder Crayons and Watercolor Pencils, they have decided to discontinue 
these two products.</li>
<li>Watercolor Pencils (item 101879) and Watercolor Wonder Crayons 
Brights Collection (item 119804), which have been on the Backorder 
Report for about a week, will no longer be available, effective 
immediately. If your order has not been shipped due to its status in 
backorder,they will not be able to fill it. They will soon begin 
processing refunds for these items. Keep in mind that it may take a few 
days to see the reimbursement in your account.</li>
<li>Now for the good news! We still have the remaining collections 
of the Watercolor Wonder Crayons available to order. The Subtles (item 
119802), Neutrals (item 119805), and Regals (item 119803) Collections 
are only available while supplies last. Get 'em before they're gone! AND
 you can get it with FREE shipping!</li>

 the Sale-A-Bration brochure is now available for purchase! You can buy 
it through May 31, and it will also be available in the new 2013-2014 
annual catalog. </li>

<p>You heard me right. Flowers and butterflies! I made this card for my DH for his birthday and I just loved the way it came out. Stampin' Up really makes it easy to pull together many colors, stamp sets and punches that coordinate so easily that even though it involved quite a few stamps it was quite easy to put together and it was well worth it, don't  you think?</p>
<p>I used a 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" Midnight Muse Card Stock (126843) for the base and folded it in half. I cut a piece of Whisper White Card Stock (100730)to 5 1/4" X 4" for the top layer. I worked it up as follows before attaching it to the front. </p>
<ul>
<li>I cut a sheet of printer paper the same size as the WW CS and cut a hole in it leaving a one inch border all around. Then I attached it to the WW CS with easy to remove adhesive. I stamped the En Francaise Stamp (109521) in Midnight Muse Ink Pad (126860) and placed the WW CS with the computer paper side down on the stamp and lifted it up. Be sure to press firmly.</li>
<li>Next I stamped the two blocks from the Colorworks stamp set (127292) randomly in Baja Breeze Ink (126960)</li>
<li>I inked up the flower from the Blooming with Kindness Stamp Set (126422) in Midnight Muse Ink and stamped it in the lower right hand corner</li>
<li>The clock from Colorworks was stamped with Stazon Ink (101406) using the Stamp-a-ma-Jig (101049). I put a Cherry Cobbler Brad in the center (119737)</li>
<li>Next I stamped the butterflies from Papillion Potpourrie one with Stazon Ink on Cherry Cobbler CS (119865) and the smaller butterfly with Midnight Muse on Baja Breeze CS (111352) and punched them out with their corresponding punches, Elegant Butterfly Punch (127526) and Bitty Butterfly (129406)</li>
<li>I adhered this piece to the front of the card base and added a banner of WW CS with Happy Birthday stamped in Midnight Muse from the Create a Cupcake Stamp Set (121982.</li>
</ul>
<p>This card would look great in other colors, too and you most certainly could add a bit of ribbon to it if you wished to girl it up a bit, too.</p>
<p>Hope you like this card as much as my DH did.</p>
<p>Happy stamping,</p>
