Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I have a few more items on my list of favorite things on the Clearance Rack … I will also be showing you the #1 Buy!!!

I’m going to start with a “tasty” find and a die I love to use!! The striped background die is worth the money alone …. and if you are worried because the coordinating designer paper is no longer available for your candy canes, not to worry … I used the left over strips from the large die to make my own candy canes and I love the texture it provides.

The first card used the background die with the Red Glimmer paper … We’ve got some fun paper in the annual catalog or you can find some on the Clearance Rack as well. Don’t forget what I told you about those candy canes!

Did you know that you can easily layer the background die back 2 back to create a crisscross pattern … just check it out below. By the way …. I think those banner dies are on sale too!

I couldn’t leave the Leaves of Holly stamp set off my list. My house is adorned with holly every Christmas … even decked out my entire tree with holly garland one year! I simple love it.

This card really highlights the stamp set, done in Night of Navy and Balmy Blue to show you don’t always have to go the green and red route. Add a little glimmer paper and blending brushes and you have a stunning card.

Now for my next product, I actually have 3 together because surprisingly enough … all 3 of the Splendid Day items in the Clearance Rack … a rare find!! AND my #1 BUY is the Splendid Day “Specialty” Designer Paper for ONLY $2.25!!

The Splendid Day 12″ x 12″ Specialty Designer Series Paper is a beautiful way to add a touch of elegant imagery to your papercrafting. You can use it as a background on scrapbook pages or card fronts, or cut smaller accent pieces to add interest to your projects. The soft, leafy images will add grace to all types of projects. One side of each sheet is foil with white printed accents.

Foil colors: copper, Fresh Freesia, Petal Pink, Pool Party, Sahara Sand, Soft Sea Foam

The card above was done in Early Espresso with the Copper Designer paper along with the stamp set stamped directly onto the cardstock for a dimensional look and then the leaf dies in the basket die. I love this card.

The second card is done in the Soft Seafoam ….

So easy to make beautifully elegant cards with this specialty designer paper, stamps and dies … You can buy all three for less than what you would have paid for the dies alone! Check out the Splendid Day products today. Don’t forget it’s BONUS DAYS … for every $50 you spend, you will receive a Bonus Coupon for $5 to spend in August!

Thank you so much for joining me today. Remember … I go LIVE tonight at 6:30 CT on my Linda’s Stampin’ Escape Facebook page.

Hope to see you tonight. Have a great day!!
