I'm sharing some group photos of some of my favorite Sale-a-bration projects today. Many are made by me and others are swaps from my Demonstrator friends or team members. 

Maybe you already own some of these Sale-a-Bration items.  I hope you're inspired by these projects.  Or maybe these will give you a little nudge to add one or more to your order….?  

First are cards made with the Delicate Dahlia stamp set.  This was an easy favorite of mine.  The 2-step DistINKtive images are gorgeous!  

See it here online.  

Next is the Feels Like Home stamp set.  Line art images that you can color in or stamp in one color.  

See the Feels Like Home stamp set here.  

Next is the Summer Shadow dies.  These dies can stand alone (as you can see!) or pair with the Shaded Summer stamp set seen here in the Annual Catalog. 

See those here:

Here are the Textures & Frames cards I made on a recent FB Live. See that video here. 

I LOVE this unique set!  It is way more fun and easy to use than I thought it would be. As you can see I had trouble stopping!  See it here. 

Lastly is the Peaceful Prints designer series paper seen here.  

I love this paper so much!  Classic prints in Black, Red, White, Sahara Sand & Garden Green.  In fact I like it so much I created one of my October kits to go around it!  I'll share that next week.

  • Explosion ‘Wow’ cards with step by step video tutorial and template.


    We made explosion cards on Facebook Live Monday night.  I host a free class called Stamp with Me Live on the last Monday evening of each month on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow me there.

    I always upload the video on my NEW YouTube Channel afterwards so even if you're not on Facebook you can watch it later.  

    I chose to use the Favored Flowers designer paper – it's a free Sale-a-Bration choice right now; while supplies last.  You can earn it free with any $50 order from Stampin' Up!.  See it here.  

    The card starts out as a gate-fold fun fold card.  Easy enough….  I chose to fussy cut a few flowers & leaves from the pretty DSP to add to my greeting element.  The greeting is from the Fitting Florets stamp set. The white stitched circle is from the Stylish Shapes dies.  I also added a few Brushed Brass butterflies; love these!  They're so dainty and nice & flat.  

    Here's the inside view of the explosion insert: 

    I added the layered squares on the diagonally at the center of the explosion piece.  Note that this is only adhered on the very outside edge of the inside card.  It sort of floats.  Please watch the video here to see exactly how it's done.  It's quite difficult to explain how this is done in writing.  

    **I created a free project sheet for this card; Download it here

    Below is the template I used for the designer paper explosion layer.  You'll start out with a 4" X 8" piece of designer paper and score vertically at 2", 4" and 6".  Then score on the diagonal 4 times as shown.

    I hope you try making one of these; they're so fun! 

    Click on the link below to watch how it's done.

  • What a Fun Sketch! Check out #CC 57 made with the pretty Favored Flowers DSP


    We have 2-3 sketch or color challenges each month on our Flowerbug's Team.  I decided to use the Favored Flowers Sale-a-Bration designer paper for my version.   

    I also used the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and Happy Labels stamp set. Both are new in the Jan-June Spring catalog.  

    I love this sketch because it's simple and unique.  A few rectangles and a strip of card stock are your starting point. Then add other elements as needed.  My diagonal strip is going the opposite way but that's okay; sketches are a starting point that you can change as needed. 


    My measurements are: 

    • Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • DSP 2 3/4" X 4"
    • Calypso Coral  2 1/2" X 4"
    • Evergreen 1" X 5"

    I did fussy cut a flower from the pretty Favored Flowers DSP. See it here. 

    This designer paper is free with any $50 purchase during our SAB (Sale-a-Bration) promotion through February 28th.  But remember that it's while supplies last!  

    Sketches are a wonderful starting point to creating a card.  I highly recommend them.  You can find many on Pinterest; just search card sketches.

    Paula made this cool card with the Dainty Delight bundle; she's so clever! 

    Her colors are Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight & Night of Navy. 

    Details:

    • She used the partial die-cut technique.  She stamped & heat embossed the flower image first and then die-cut the layered edge to match before texturing it.  
    • That flowery DSP is the Regency Park paper in the 2023 Jan-April catalog.
    • The texture is from the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here. 
    • Notice that little tiny daisy on the greeting banner?  That's the new Loose Daisy Embellishments seen here.  They are not adhesive-backed and can be added with a mini glue dot or a dot of glue.  Each one has a little leaf on it!  

    Next is a pretty card by Karen featuring the Desert Details bundle and the Delicate Desert designer paper. 

    Her colors include Gray Granite & Calypso Coral with White & Gold.  The greeting, pretty flowers and border die are all from that Desert Details bundle seen here. 

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • DSP 5 1/2" X 3 1/8"
    • Calypso Coral 5 1/2" X 3 1/2"
    • White 4 1/2" X 3/4" 

    Next is a special card made by Candace using the Lucky Clover bundle. 

    The Lucky Clover bundle is unfortunately out of stock and not returning. The Lucky Clover punch is now unavailable.  I'm sorry if you had your eye on it!  You can still get the Lucky Clover stamp set though.  

    She used 2 different greens for her clovers – Soft Sea Foam, Soft Succulent & Evening Evergreen.  What you can't see in the photo is the scoring she did on her black background. She used the scoring board on the diagonal to add a scored texture.  So cool!
