You Made My Day Sale-A-Bration Card & Class - CTC 15

I totally LOVE the Sale-A-Bration (SAB) free products this year.  The very 1st stamp set in the SAB catalogue is the Best Day Ever stamp set.  I have designed a whole class around this stamp set as it is just so fun & fresh.  I was having a play with my goodies & thought I would case the actually catalogue on a card.    My catty cased card is perfect for the current challenge over at casingthecatty.blogspot.com  Why not pop over there (once you are finished here of course) and check out all the great ideas & challenge entries.

Here is my Calypso Coral version:

And here is the actual catalogue one.  I changed mine a bit but the idea is basically the same. 

I am having a Sale-a-Bration day on February 15th here at my studio.  This card is part of a whole set of cards you can make on the day.  You even get to make a special box to keep them in.   This set of cards is just one of the 3 projects you make on the day.  For those that can't attend I will be adding this class to my classes for sale page soon.  

Here are the whole set together:

For those of you interested in attending my Sale-A-Bration day here is the flyer - I hope to see you there!

12 Weeks Of Christmas: Week 2 Card & Gift Box - Festive Flurry vs Chalk Talk

I know, yet another Festive Flurry project, but I promise this is it for now, as I have lots of other projects to show you that feature some exciting new products.  I am showing both the card & box today as I am running a bit behind in my posts.   This box & card combo was our Stamp Club project this month.  My aim was to feature Chalk Talk & the Tag a Boxes but in a Christmassy kind of way. I also wanted to show off the Festive Flurry stamp set & matching framelits as I just love them.

Please excuse the photos - It is a grey rainy day, & the lighting in here is pretty bad today.

Festive Flurry Gift Box

THE BOX:
I used one of the new Tag a Bag Gift Boxes featured in the Annual Catalogue on page 158.  (#130927)  You get 8 in the packet & they come with their own acetate sleeves. These are great for little gifts & would be perfect for that Kris Kringle present we all seem to get landed with at Christmas.   I used the Winter Frost DSP stack & Smokey Slate for the box.

THE TAG: 
I then made an extra long tag by folding over the Bermuda Bay cardstock in the Chalk Talk framelit for added length.  I cut a large Festive Flurry snowflake from Silver Glimmer paper, & stamped another large one in Coastal Cabana ink & cut it out too.  We did a bit of scoring on this one & I layered on top a silver embossed medium snowflake, a Bermuda bay small snowflake & then a heat embossed white on vellum small snowflake that was also scored to give it depth.  On top of all this was the crowning glory - a Frosted Finishes Embellishment. Oh and to hold it on the box a Smokey Slate Chevron Ribbon.   Here is a close up of the tag

THE CARD:

A base of Smokey Slate, a thin layer of Bermuda Bay & the matching Winter Frost paper stack were used to offset the Smokey Slate gift tag.  The tag has a small Chalk Talk image plus a silver embossed vellum snowflake.  Layered on this is a Coastal Cabana small snowflake embellished with with some rhinestones & a Silver Glimmer star punched from the Merry Minis Punch Pack which were carried over - Yay!  I used the Expression Thinlits to cut out a Silver Glimmer Merry & phew we were all done!
