Creative Inking Blog Hop - Celebrating Sale-a-Bration!

Welcome to the Creative Inking Blog Hop!   This month we are Celebrating Saleabration!!

It is our biggest sale of the year...and the most popular!! I have chosen to highlight three of my favorite products from Stampin' Up!'s Saleabration Catalog....Lovely Lily Pad Stamp Set...FREE with a $50 merchandise order....Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper..FREE with a $50 merchandise order and the Lily Pad Dies...FREE with a $100 merchandise order..

There are so many beautiful colors in this DSP...any choice will be gorgeous...so speaking of Gorgeous...I went with Gorgeous Grape for the base of my card...highlighted with accents of Blackberry Bliss.  Just perfect for that lovely Lily painted background...it is stunning designer paper!!

The white detailed lily cutout and the leaves and stem are cut from the dies.  Layer the white cutout onto the watercolor side of the DSP . And do some fussy cutting to get that beautiful lily....the leaves are also cut from the watercolor side of the DSP as well.  

Fold your card base in half and cut 1" from the side....

This is the perfect place for a coordinating watercolor piece of DSP.  The sentiments come from one more FREE Salabration item....Thoughtful Blooms.  

Tie a simple bow from Linen Thread to finish it off.  

I hope you enjoyed my card today...now it is time to check out what what Barb has created!!!
