Stampin' n Slimmin'

Beautiful Peacock! I love this free stampset from Stampin' Up!s Sale-a-bration.  I finally managed to have a play this weekend.   For every £45 spend in either the Annual catalogue or Spring/Summer catalogue or both you can choose a free item.  Contact me for any catalogues or information.  Or, visit my Stampin' Up! online shop:  http://lynnsmith@stampinup.net I decided to use the set to make my mother-in-law's birthday card.  I'd seen lots of lovely designs on pinterest and was eager to have a play.  I love how it turned out!  What do you think?   Ingredients Inkpads:   Tranquil Tide Melon Mambo Berry Burst Lemon and Lime Twist Powder Pink Cardstock : Berry Burst Lemon Lime Twist Whisper White Stampsets :  Beautiful Peacock (SAB 2018) Thoughtful Banners Happy Birthday Gorgeous Thinlits:   Stitched Shapes Others :  Brights Sequins Assor...
