Saleabration has begun and what better way to celebrate than by having a Glitter Queens Blog Hop! This month we’re all sharing projects that feature Saleabration free gifts.  YES, I said FREE gifts!! Saleabration is so much fun!! For every $50 purchase you make (before shipping/tax) you can pick a free gift AND there’s no limit to how many you can earn.  This year you can choose from stamp sets, ribbon, paper and more!! Each one of us will show you two ways to use one of the Saleabration products.  If you’d like to see what you can choose from, click here to see the Saleabration brochure.  

My cards are showcasing Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper.  It’s absolutely FREE with a $50 purchase and oh my gosh, it’s so pretty! Colorful designs on one side and black & white images on the other. I’m predicting that everyone is going to love this paper so if you love it too, I’d get it as soon as you can!

Besides using the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper, I used some fun new products from the Occasions Catalog.  

• Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies – LOVE these!  #148551
• Butterfly Gala Stamp Set  #148580
• Dot to Dot Embossing Folder #148533

At the end of the post, you’ll find all the measurements and a supply list with all the products I used. 

Both cards use the same products with the only difference that I used Granny Apple Green for the sentiment on the first card and Memento Ink on the second one.  

I ran the piece of Granny Apple Green through the Big Shot using the brand new Dot to Dot Embossing Embossing Folder.  I used the stamp set Butterfly Gala for the sentiment and cut it out with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits.  Personally, I’m SO excited to have another shape of stitched framelits!! I put Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the sentiment and on the back of the Basic Black cardstock with the butterflies. I finished the cards by adding some Glitter Enamel Dots.  Super easy to make and the Designer Series Paper was free!!
