Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Smarty Pants

Sale-A-Bration starts at the end of this month and as a demonstrator I was able to already earn a set for spending $50.  I could have earned more but my stamping budget was drastically hit by the holidays! lol  I used the elephant from Smarty Pants on my baby card the other day and today I wanted to use the blue jeans.  I found the perfect color combo at Stampin' Royalty and paired it with the sketch at Mojo Monday.
I just realized I used Island Indigo instead of Night Quite Navy but they are very similar colors so I think it will be okay. :)  I had out the Night Quite Navy ink pad and the Island Indigo marker!  Dur!
 I saw a card somewhere where the designer did layers like this and I just loved it!  I think she may have punched the scallop out of the window and then popped that section up over the sentiment. I will have to try that too!  I have a lot of this cotton ribbon leftover from the Holiday Catalog. Good thing it carried over to the Spring Catalog so I have some more time to play with it.  It is a nice neutral ribbon to have. I tied the Island Indigo ribbon around it and then used the Sticky Sheets to adhere it to my card. It worked really well!  Ribbon is always tricky for me to adhere to a card, so the Sticky Sheets might be staying on my work space to be used in the future!
