Stamp 'n Hop Blog Hop: Sale-A-Bration

Welcome to this month's Stamp 'n Hop Blog Hop and my blog!  I'm glad you stopped by today.  This month we are focusing on Sale-A-Bration, in particular the second release items. You will find the full list of participants of the bottom of this post.  Click on the 'next' button to continue on the hop.

My card today features the Lots of Lavender stamp set and the Basket Weave Embossing Folder.  I used the lavender stamp in a different way this time.  Instead of using the stamps to color in the bouquet, I colored with Stampin' Blends.  I randomly alternated the light and dark Rich Razzleberry Blends to color the lavender buds.

The Crumb Cake background was embossed with the Basket Weave Embossing Folder from the Blossoming Basket SAB bundle.  Before embossing, I inked the raised side of the embossing folder with Crumb Cake ink, by tapping the ink pad directly on the embossing folder. The ink gives the embossing a whole new level of definition.

The Sale-A-Bration products are only available for a few more weeks. On March 31st, most of these products will disappear forever.  Don't miss out on getting all of your favorites for FREE (with a qualifying purchase).

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog.  I hope you have been inspired to stamp something today!  Please take a moment to leave me a comment and let me know you were here.  And, as always, I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Happy Stampin!
