60th Birthday

A recent commission was a masculine 60th for my customer's husband. Knowing they are Essendon football supporters, I went with a red & black colour scheme.



Large Number dies cut the 60 from glimmer black paper, and the red glimmer paper provided lots of hearts. A lot of the stamps used here are no longer available, although I do hang on to some for quite a while. Itty Bitty Birthdays has 'awesome at any age' and that continues in the new annual catalogue.



Although Amazing Life is still available - "so happy to have you in my life" - it will be only until June 3rd. Although making a card yourself is a true expression of love, I am happy to make a card for your special person, on request.

Best Ever

SALE-A-Bration only has 10 days left, so don't delay making your order to score at least one item for free. Do you need to replenish your card? Perhaps you find that you use a lot of Dimensionals and Tombow liquid Glue? By stocking up on a few basics, you may earn yourself a new limited edition stamp set, a pack of 12' X 12" foil card or DSP or a colourful collection of organdy ribbon.


All Adorned is one of the 2nd-release SAB products, which I've been working with over the last few days. It has a sensational corner stamp, which gives such a dramatic finish to any card. It has been paired up with Amazing Life for even more drama. These stamps are a lot of fun, since you can colour the open letters in a range of ways and cut or colour the banner area too.


A couple of posts ago, I shared a wedding card I made using All Adorned, a SALE-A-Bration stamp set. You can see that pretty pink card here. I was talking then about using the Stamparatus to get the corners even. A square card is the perfect way to achieve the most accurate placement of all 4 corners. Measurements are given below. Just using my eye, I placed the clean, corner stamp on the lower right hand corner of the white card. After inking, it is stamped firmly before rotating the card 90 degrees, and repeat stamping a total of 4 times.


The second piece of pineapple and white card is for the inside. You could easily stamp corners in the inside of the card too, but I need the space for a sweet message to my sweetheart. That great sentiment is included in All Adorned too, along with some striking medallion stamps. It is a quiet achiever in the stamping toolbox. 

You can shop with me in person or in my online shop, and by using the Host Code there will be a gift posted to you in the following month. Any of the products displayed below will take you to that item in my shop as well, for you to take a closer look. The website is fully secured, and details are not saved unless you choose for them to be.

Card Recipe
2 Whisper White square = 11cm by 11cm
2 Pineapple Punch square = 11.5cm by 11.5cm
Coastal Cabana = 12.5cm by 25cm, score at 12.5cm

Alice Is Six CTC #220


Welcome back to another week of CASE-ing The Catty. The crew is made up of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all parts of Australia and New Zealand.You are at the blog of Rachel Palmieri, Independent Stampin' Up!® demonstrator. I run classes at my home studio in South Morang, Victoria, share Stampin' Up!® products and tools at parties for my customers, coach my lovely team and create cards and the occasional 3D project. This week the design team are focusing on the SALE-A-Bration Catalogue, which shows products and projects made with SAB items, combined with Annual and Occasions Catalogue items. SALE-A-Bration runs from 3rd January -31st March, and for every $90 ordered, you can add one of these limited free items to your order.


SALE-A-Bration finishes at 23:50 on March 31st. I do hope you have filled your basket over the past 3 months and have lots of lovely supplies to create with. If not, we have many delightful co-ordinating papers you could use to recreate something similar.


I'm the proud mum of 5 sons, 3 of whom are married, and have presented Mr P and I with 7 grandchildren. WOW! 13 descendents - and only one is a girl. Our Alice has turned 6, but what is more, she is part of a cluster of Palmieri birthdays - 5 of those 13 people have their birthday from February 14 - March 14. That is more than one a week! I can tell you as a grandma of dear ones living nearly 2 hours away, it can get challenging spreading the love around. Everyone gets their own special and individual birthday card, and do tell... is this too over-the-top for Alice?


Basically, I have CASE-d almost exactly the centre card. The orientation has been altered, the sentiment and colouring, just slightly.


The paper with butterflies, and the black gingham are just so perfect, I couldn't bring myself to change them. This paper is one of your choices during SALE-A-Bration to add to your $90 order, FREE! The Butterfly Duet Punch made it so easy to add beautifully coloured additions to the pages, they've been punched straight out of the DSP, but once the paper has gone, there is still a stamp set Butterfly Gala to stamp more butterflies to punch and colour.


I have made this 'W' card before, I love the impact it has, and have always hand cut the card but the new Rectangle Stitched Thinlets are perfect for the inserts, making lovely, neat layers for the embellishments and sentiments.


The catalogues are really great books of ideas, which always inspire me to create. At CASE-ing The Catty, we love to share our creations, and we'd love you to share yours too, on our Facebook page.


It's time for you to click on over and check out Siobhan's super project
