Sassy 25 Days of Christmas - December 3rd. Red Line Tape!
If you have never used Red Line Tape...you are so missing out! It is one of the most awesome adhesives out there! It works fabulously on ribbons, fabrics, embellishments and even acetate! So because of that, and being in the festive red and green season...that is my featured product of the day.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is one of my current favorite cards created with Red Line Tape.
1. Stamp the image at the top of the White Cs leaving 1/4" from the top edge.
2. Cut out the light bulb images that you want to be the shaker elements. To find the most success, pierce the center of the light bulb and then cut from the underside. Make sure to leave the outline of the stamped lightbulb visible.
3. Cut two pieces of acetate to 3" x 3".
4. Remove the film from one, or both, sides of the acetate. If this is CTMH acetate, there is film on one side. If this is Cricut acetate, there is film on both sides. Set aside.
5. Using Red Line Tape, adhere tape to all four sides of the acetate.
6. Remove the red film from the Red Line Tape and then attach the acetate piece to the back of the light bulbs. Make sure when attaching that the Red Line Tape doesn't cover the cut out lightbulbs. Run your finger across the Red Line tape to make sure it seals to the cardstock.
7. Using Thin Foam Tape, create a small box around each of the cut out lightbulbs leaving a little wiggle room. Make sure the boxes connect or are up against each other so that the sequins don't "sneak out".
8. Next, using the same height of foam, add additional foam around the edges of the cardstock and in some of the in-between spaces so that the piece lies flat when attached to the card base.
9. Carefully add red sequins to the one of the windows, a mixture of the red and green to another one, and green in the 3rd.
10. CAREFULLY remove the film from the foam tape surrounding the sequin boxes. Tip: use your hand to hold down the base while pulling the film so that the sequins don't pop up and stick to the foam.
11. Remove the film from the 2nd piece of acetate and attach to the foam tape.
12. Press down to the seal.
13. Remove the film from the remaining foam tape and attach the entire piece to the card base.
And there you go!!
14. Add title as desired.

Some might be product, other might be class kits, but either way, this is a great way to celebrate your love of scrapbooking and paper crafting all December long!
The days specials will be posted each day around 3PM and will be only good until 2:59PM on the following day. There is be a special link in my www.inallsassiness.com shop for that days special. The special price is the final price - there is nothing additional for tax. Visit here on my blog, or my shop each day to check out the special and order the ones that you like! The shipping will be set to pick up so that shipping charges are not assessed.
During the week between Christmas and New Years, I will be sending out all orders from the collective 25 days. If shipping is needed, you will then be sent an invoice for the actual shipping to you (for most customers this is right around $10 per box) although depending on the weight, it might be a little more. Once you pay the invoice on a secure site, your box of all your happiness will be mailed to you.
Anyone who takes advantage of 5 of the 25 days will receive a special gift in their box.
Additionally, all VIP's that take of advantage of 5 of the 25 days will receive a free pack of the Smitten Paper with Sticker sheet with their box! VIP's will also receive VIP Credit for the purchase price of their special orders all month.
