Hey there! I'm so excited that it's finally Sale-a-bration time! I have a couple of fun cards to show you, one created with the Stampin' Up! My Digital Studio digital cardmaking and scrapbooking software, and one with a fun FREE kit in the Sale-a-bration catalog!

First, I received this card a few days ago from the girl at Stampin' Up! who was in charge of the Share Fair at Leadership!

When I first opened the card, I thought, "hmmm, what is this about?" but then I looked a bit more closely:

Then I opened the card:

It made me laugh! Then I read Katie's note:

This is EXACTLY what Stampin' Up! is all about, whether it is a digitally-created card from My Digital Studio or a hand-stamped one, making someone's day with a personally created and written card!

I do have the MDS program, and I've worked with it a bit, but not enough to really see all the fun things it can do! I'm inspired to find out which download this "bees knees" is a part of and try my hand at it again!

Next, in honor of Sale-a-bration I have a card I put together in a snap with the "Good as Gold" card kit from the SAB brochure:

EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS CARD IS FROM THE KIT, including the envelope and the shine Gold Foil liner!

The banners are pre-printed, the card base has shiney gold dots, the gold banners are pre-cut and the star is ready to punch out! It even includes the stretchy elastic gold string and the Bermuda Bay Baker's Twine! There are enough components in the kit to make 8 full cards with the envelopes!

The Gold Foil liners are separate from the envelopes in the kit, so I cut off a strip from the bottom edge and then adhered it to the inside of the card for a little bit of continuity!

These cards are really gorgeous! I thought they looked a bit flat and boring when I looked at them in the Sale-a-bration brochure, but when they came in my pre-order I found them to be so easy, quick, AND CUTE!
