Hello stampers – thanks for stopping in to check out Card Swap Thursday. Today I’m posting a Tranquil Tulips Sympathy card that has some wonderfully pretty colours. Created by Kimberly Stathakos, it’s sure to raise the spirits of the recipient.
Tranquil Tulips is one of our annual catalogue Host stamp sets, and is very popular with stampers. With several stem and blossom stamps, you can create your own arrangement in a multitude of colour combinations.
This is a two-step stamp set, allowing you to stamp details overtop of your base image to achieve a depth to your flower that isn’t available with most stamp sets. The best part is that you don’t need a ton of ink pads, because thanks to the design of the stamps, you can use the same ink colour for the base and the details.
As Tranquil Tulips can only be purchased by Hosts with a $200+ workshop, there are a few different ways that you can purchase this set.
- Place a $200 order (+tax/shipping); earn $20 in Host rewards, AND 3 Sale-a-Bration items
- Host a workshop at your home or in my stamp room. If the sales are over $200, you can purchase this set with your Host rewards. Host a workshop that’s over $330, and you’ll get extra Host rewards!
- Host an online Facebook party (I’ll do the work) or a catalogue party. The earning details above will still apply.
One more thing to remember… it’s Sale-a-Bration time! You can earn free items with a $60 purchase (+tax/shipping) during Sale-a-Bration. If your purchase is over $120, you can earn higher level items! See all of the FREE Sale-a-Bration items here. Add the Host Code to your online order, and if it’s over $50 (+tax/ship), I’ll send you FREE Project Helper Guides at the end of the month.
