Awesome Sale-a-Bration Team card swap samples

January 25, 2023

We held our monthly Team swap and meeting this weekend. As usual my gals created fabulous cards to share with each other.

First is a rainbow of carrots card made by Karen. She used the Thanks a Bunch stamp set. It's a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion; yours with any $50 purchase of Stampin' Up! products.

Rainbow carrots are one of the fun food trends right now; she did it proud! She used the Stamparatus to stamp her carrots, repositioning the card stock on her mat each time so the two step stamps lined up perfectly. Genius! I plan to share her technique soon.

She used the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here, new Pastel Adhesive-Backed sequins, the Deckled Rectangle dies and the new Happy Labels Pick a Punch for her greeting.

Ginny made this pretty card with the Beautifully Happy stamp set; also from Sale-a-Bration.

Save

It's a beautiful 2-step stamp set that is also distinktive; which means it gives two tones of ink on one stamping. My favorite types of stamp hands down!

Her colors are Fresh Freesia, Old Olive and Black. She added that soft layer of Vellum too!

Measurements are:

Card base 4 1/4" X 11", White – 3" X 4 1/8", Black 3 1/8" X 4 1/4" and Vellum is 3 5/8" X 4 3/4"

Jane brought this cute card to share and I had to show you. She used the Adorable Owls stamp set; another Sale-a-Bration choice that's free with a $50 purchase from now through February 28th. *see everything free here

Can you see what is so unique about it?

Save

The Owl tag is loose and can be removed from the card front. It is caught on the horizontal greeting banner that is only anchored at the outer edges. I love this idea! You could add a bookmark in the same way.

Her colors are Calypso Coral with Fresh Freesia.

A few favorite craft storage tips

December 27, 2024

I thought I'd share some of my favorite ways to store my stamping products. Some people enjoy organizing more than creating!

First is how I store my stamp sets. In a dresser drawer. I purchased a few dressers from IKEA many years ago and they've held up very well despite multiple moves.

Save

Here's a photo of my craft studio. I am very, very lucky to have such a beautiful room in our home for my business and classes.

Here's how I store my 8 1/2" X 11" card stock and paper scraps. In front of each color of card stock I keep a cello bag for the scraps in that color. I've used this method for years and it really helps me use my scraps.

Save

Next is how I store my 12 X 12" designer paper and scrapbook pages.

Save

It's a shoe storage cabinet! My 12 X 12" paper fits like it was made just for it! You can get two stacks side by side in it since it's about 30" wide. Plus it has a divider to fit even more paper above it. I love the way the doors hinge open. There are three doors and it's only about a foot deep.

Lastly here's how I store my inks, markers and ribbon. These are Stampin' Up! storage and they're fully customizable to fit what you need. Click here to see the options.

Save

I love that it fits right on my work area for easy reach. As you can see I organize my inks in rainbow order. I'm not sure why my Blends aren't but I know my granddaughter will love to do that for me this week while she's here.

Diagonal Fun Fold with new products! Free project sheet & video too.

December 24, 2024

Today I'm sharing a neat fun fold I hadn't made for awhile. It's a diagonal fold that is fun and easy.

Save

I used a few new, upcoming products from both the 2025 Spring and the 2025 Sale-a-Bration catalogs. The greeting & punch are made with the Bright Borders set and coordinating To the Point punch. The designer paper is the Toadstool Gardens 6" DSP from the SAB catalog. It's free with any $60 purchase from January 7th – February 28th, 2025.

I made over 20 of them for a mail out swap I joined. The colors include Melon Mambo & Granny Apple Green.

Save

I share how to make it in the video here and seen below. Basically it involves trimming off half of one side of the card base, flipping it and adhering it back to the card front. The only confusing this can be adding your designer paper. I suggest using a non-directional paper when trying this out.

Here's the free project sheet you can print or download. Click on the following link: Download Bright Borders Diagonal fun fold

Below is the video if you'd like to see how to assemble this card. I also share a pretty Sophisticated Sled project too.
