Time's Running Out - Best of Flowers

Today's cards feature the Stampin' Up! set, Best of Flowers. Best of... sets are only available until 3/31/14, so be sure to order any you want. Each set is $14.95. Collect the 25 sticker from 6 sets and get a free stamp set ($14.95 or less). Buy 4 sets (or any other $50 or more purchase) and get the Distressed Dots embossing folder, which was used on the top card, for free (SAB selection, ends 3/31).

The "above & beyond..." stamp is from One in a Million. On the inside is the coordinating stamp from that set, "...that's where you always seem to go!" I like how each stamp in this set is paired with another coordinating phrase.

 This second card is a 3 x 3 notecard. Yes, Stampin' Up! sells envelopes to fit.

Here are all 12 sets, one for each month of Stampin' Up's 25th anniversary year. Get yours before they're gone!

Valentine's Treat (Discover the Stampin' Up blog)

Many of you may have noticed that Stampin' Up recently re-did its customer webpage (www.stampinup.com).  One of the additions was a blog.  Check out this awesome project I found there today:

Personalized Valentine’s Day Treats

Surprise your friends and co-workers on Valentine’s Day with this fun, personalized popcorn treat box. I love the chalkboard look that is so popular right now, so to personalize each one, I added the cute heart pick and wrote the names with chalk. To achieve the chalked look, just lightly rub a piece of chalk over our Basic Black Cardstock and now your heart looks like a blackboard. It’s that easy!

There was a comment that suggested using the White Gel Pen to write the name so that it didn't smudge. Also, for those of you that have the retired Stampin' Pastels, I'll bet you could use the Whisper White if you don't have a piece of chalk.
