Wow Wednesday: Lasting Lily

Good Morning!  Welcome to Wow Wednesday.  Now, Wow Wednesday can mean a few things, like

• Wow…it’s only Wednesday!
• Wow…we made it to Wednesday!
• Wow…I have a cool new technique to show you
• Or Wow! I made this card 5 times before I was satisfied with it

Today, we’re going with the latter.  Yes, I made this card 5 times.  I was trying to mask and over lap the stems and it just wasn’t working.  So, before I share that with you, I’m going to really have to go back and practice it some more.  So for now, you’ll just have to be satisfied with this sympathy card made with the Lasting Lilly Stamp Set from Sale-a-Bration. 

​Let’s talk about Sale-a-Bration for a minute.  There are two icons you should be aware of for Level 1 and Level 2 products.  Level 1 products are free with a $50 purchase; Level 2 products are free with a $100 purchase.  These levels are incremental, and it’s up to you to decide how which products you’d like.  

Currently, there are only 2 Level 2 products: The Lasting Lily Stamp Set and Tea Time Framelits, which coordinate perfectly with the Tea Together Stamp Set in the Occasions Catalog.  You can see all the Sale-a-Bration products by clicking here.
