Hippest Hippos; lots of creative ideas for you!

Today I'm sharing some wonderful swap cards I received from other talented Demonstrators – all featuring the Hippest Hippos stamp set & Hippo dies.  They're both free with any $50 Stampin' Up! order during July & August. 

Hippo set & dies Save

But remember these Sale-a-Bration items are only available while supplies last.  Already they are out of TWO choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  The Rings of Love 12" DSP and the Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam cards & envelopes.  So if you have something from the SAB catalog on your wish list; get it soon!  

 

Hippos Amanda Save

What an amazing scene Amanda created here!  So many details!  I especially appreciate that she colored her hippo in Pool Party; who says they have to be gray?

Her background is made with the Rays of Light stamp seen here.  The rest is all Sale-a-Bration items.  Her colors include Pool Party, White, Crumb Cake & Crushed Curry

She stamped the greeting from Amazing Phrases and fussy cut it, placing it between 'waves'. She added Wink of Stella to her water.  The little splashes of water & the life preserver truly make this scene complete!

One of my favorites was made by Gwen.  The way she added ribbon for a 'towel' on the silver/metal tub is genius!!

Hippos Kelly Save

Kelly created a cute scene mostly with the Hippo dies.  Her colors are Smoky Slate, Real Red & Balmy Blue.  The little water splash die-cuts add motion to the scene!

Mary, one of my Flowerbug team members, made this cute card for her Card Club this month. She used a blending Brush with Flirty Flamingo ink for a soft background.  The lights and bow at the top are from the Tree Lot dies in the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  See them here.

Hippos Amy Save

This cute card was made by Amy Storrie.  I love the sunglasses!  The other neat thing she did was to use the Hippo dies along with the Stitched Circle in the Beautiful Shapes dies so they match up perfectly!  Her Designer Paper is the Cottage Gingham in the Holiday catalog.  

You can see the Hippest Hippos stamp set here and the Hippo dies here.  Get them both free with a $100 online order and you'll also receive my free July cards kit!  Offer good through Saturday, July 30th.

  • Easy way to make a 3 panel card with the Friendly Hello Bundle

    I shared this pretty card on last week's FB Live.  It features the new Friendly Hello bundle.  The stamp set AND the 12 X 12" Designer Paper is free with any $100 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. 

    Friendly Hello DSP card Save

    These pretty colors include Pool Party, Fresh Freesia, Black & White.  I colored in the bird, flowers & leaves with Stampin' Blends markers. 

    My top favorite thing about Stampin' Up! is our coordinating colors.  The fact that everything matches & coordinates so effortlessly takes so much work out of the creative process!  I used to struggle so much to get things to match before I 'met' Stampin' Up!

    Measurements:

    • Pool Party card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”, White 4” X 5 ¼”
    • Evening Evergreen 2 7/8” X 1 ¾”.
    • DSP 3 pieces 1 3/4” X 5”, 1 7/8” X 3”, 1 7/8” square

    I stamped one of the images onto the edges of my inside layer; almost like a frame.  Love this added detail!

  • 3 ideas with the Friendly Hello bundle with video & measurements

    I featured the Friendly Hello bundle on last week's Facebook Live. One of the projects is this 'latch fold' card. Click here to get to my page & I hope you'll follow me too. 

    It's normally called a Joy Fold card but I added the flowers on the lower left as a latch to hold it closed.  I like it when a fun fold card stays flat and doesn't pop open on it's own. 

    Friendly Hello Latch Save

     

    The color combination is Pool Party with Fresh Freesia.  I think it's soft & springy; which we sorely need right now in North Dakota.  It's super color the last few weeks with more snow than I like!  

    Friendly Hello Latch Save

    Click here to see the Friendly Hello bundle.  It's part of our Sale-a-Bration offering through the end of February, 2022.  It's free with a $100 purchase from my store. I love this time of year when everyone can get something free with their purchase.  Most items are free with a $50 order but there are a few of higher value that are free with a $100 order.  

    FRIENDLY HELLO BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    I stamped the left flap of the card with the double flower image instead of texturing it.  I like the tone on tone stamping.  It adds detail without getting 'busy'.  

    I added the new Iridescent Rhinestones to the flower centers.  Love these so much!  I'm actually gifting a package away to everyone who places an online order over $50 this month.  See them here.

  • Calming Camelia 2 ways with video!

    Today I'm hosting my Spring Launch & BOGO Bash event!  If you're local to me in Minot, ND stop in!  It's from 3-6 pm.  I guarantee it will be worth coming!  I'll have yummy treats & hot cocoa, great BOGO selection, tons of samples and door prizes too!  

    ~~~

    On one of my weekly FB Live's I played with the Calming Camelia stamp set from the new 2022 Sale-a-Bration catalog. See it here. I'm so excited it's SAB time!! 

    Calming Camellia leaf cards.. Save

    I chose a few green/blue tones to stamp the same leaf image – Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green & Just Jade.  After stamping on the 1 3/4" X 2 3/4" White pieces I added texture with the new set of embossing folders called Stripes & Splatters 3D in the new Spring catalog. See them here. I did heat emboss the greetings with White embossing powder also.

    The pretty embellishments are called Faux Sea Glass Shapes. They are available here in the new 2022 Jan-June Spring catalog.

    Which layout do you prefer?  Vertical or horizontal?

    This pretty stamp set is free to hosts during January & February with an order over $300.  You probably think that's way too large of an order.  But there is a way around that!  Here are a few ways:

    1. Gather with a few friends and place your order together so you can earn it free. See it here. 

    2. Or contact me here for a host code just for you and a few friends.  Each of you orders using the host code and the orders count together towards Host benefits.  You'll get this stamp set free AND $36 in free product as well!  

    You can see the video below; I share a few projects as well as some beautiful Swedish stars!
