You mean EVERYTHING to me.

A couple of months ago at our Team Christmas Party we did a Valentine SWAP to have some ideas on hand for the upcoming holiday. Well, I set this gem aside to share with you all closer to the date – and here it is!

Team Member Jen Rios Raner made this card – and I just adore it! The card is even more fitting for her, because her husband's name is Eric — so the "E" on the top can stand for Eric in her case — or the word "Everything" in red for the rest of us! Very clever

ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS:

• Sick of just tying your ribbon in a knot around a cardstock layer? Try this fun little trick that Jen did here with using one ribbon piece around another for a knotless use of ribbon – love it!
• The texture plates are a wonderful way to add some extra "umph" to a card – check out the diamonds in the background of the red cardstock here.
• Bring out your Stampin' Write Markers when you want to draw extra attention to a word! Just ink up the word you want to draw attention to in another color, as done here with the word "everything."

Daisy Thoughts

This card is all about what you can get FREE During Sale-A-Bration!!! It features THREE different Sale-A-Bration exclusives!

ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS:

• I am HOOKED on the Color Spritzer Tool! Seriously, I can't stop! Just about every card I've made in the past 2 days had to be spritzed with Chocolate Chip marker – the end result is just too cool!
• These darling flower shapes come from one of my favorite new dies, a Stampin' Up! Exclusive, "Blossom Party". They're so much fun to work with, especially with these Neutral Brads!
• One can never have enough circles. My personal opinion. I used most of the circle punches here, and even the Circle Die. To create tiny trim circles, start with your smallest circle, I used the 1-1/4", and then line up the next size up around that, I used the 1-3/8" — it's MUCH easier to be working that direction than trying to punch a smaller circle into a punch out you've already made.

I showed you a close up of the Scallop Trim Border Punch in yesterday's post here, so I won't repeat any of that. But I will show you a close up of two of the Sale-A-Bration exclusive Stamp Sets that I used on this card — earn one free with a $50 order!! Earn them both free with a $100 order! Better yet, spend $150 and get the punch for free, too!
