Sometimes, when designing a card, the littlest detail can change a card from ‘meh’ to ‘wow!’ Today I was playing around with the Be Dazzling 6″ x 6″ Specialty Designer Series paper that will be a free item during Sale-A-Bration. I used the dies from the Stitched Stars die set to cut out stars with this creation in mind.
However, I felt this card looked a little meh. It didn’t dazzle me. So I trimmed the card front down to 5″ x 3 3/4″ and layered it on top of a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of the Be Dazzled designer series paper. Now the card goes from meh to wow! Take a look!
Sale-A-Bration begins August 3 and runs through the end of September. During this time, for each $50 you spend you get to choose a free product from the Sale-A-Bration brochure. These items are exclusive and only available during Sale-A-Bration. The July-December mini catalog also becomes live August 3 and is full of wonderful holiday and Fall designs. If you don’t currently have a demonstrator, I’d love to be yours and am happy to send you both the new mini catalog and the Sale-A-Bration brochure. Just contact me, sue@soggystamper.com with your phone number and mailing address.
