Sale-A-Brate the Occasions Blog Hop

Hey there stampers!  Surprise! I have joined the One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop Team!  I'm so fortunate to be able to hop with such a talented group and I cannot wait to see what everyone has to share this month!  

To start the year off, we are Sale-A-Brating the Occasions!  Our projects this month focus on items from the Sale-A-Bration and Occasions Catalogs.  For my projects I chose my new favorite stamp set from the Occasions Catalog.  It's called Bubble Over.  This set is a series 17 stamps with sentiments and images to match.  I also used the coordinating Bottles & Bubbles Framelits as well as the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper.  

This set consists of 4 mini cards- each measuring 2-1/2" x 4-1/2".  These are the new Whisper White Narrow Note Cards & Envelopes.  Not only are they adorable but they are perfect so stick in lunch boxes, shirt pockets, on top of the pillow....anywhere really!  What a great way to let someone special know that you're thinking about them!

These are the four cards.  Some of the bottles were stamped with the Bubble Over Stamp Set and some were die cut from the coordinating Bubbles & Fizz DSP.

It's a little difficult to see in the picture above but I have used the new Glitter & Clear Epoxy Shapes to add a little something extra to the card.

One of my favorite things about the Bottles & Bubbles Framelit Dies is the straw.  You can't really see it in the picture but if you look real close- there are ribbed marks where the straw bends making it more realistic.  Way too cute!

Don't want to have an open bottle on your card?  No worries!  There's a bottle cap framelit for that!  I used the Champagne Foil Sheets to create the bottle cap on the card above.  Super cute!

The colors in the suite are awesome!  They are fun, bright and cheerful!  They are Basic Gray, Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist and Whisper White.  With these colors something can be created for just about anyone!

I couldn't create a set of cards and not make a cute box to store them all.  The Lots to Love Box Framelits Dies create the perfect storage solution!

The picture below shows what the box looks like when it's open.  Since the box is only around 3/8" thick- it will store approximately 4 cards and envelopes.  It will hold less if each card has a lot of embellishing.

I hope you have enjoyed my project for this month!  It's been a fun one to create! 

Happy Stampin'!
