Hoot Hoot you’re so cute!

Today’s card tutorial uses the Adorable Owls stamp set from our Sale-a-bration line up. Not only is this set filled with cute images that are great for coloring, you can use the all occasions sentiment for Valentine’s Day too.

Check out this fun card I made using the set and our In Colors for a non traditional color pallet for this day filled with love.

Done in Pale Papaya and Soft Succulent this card can be made easily with the assortment pack of Card stock and In Color Designer Series Paper. And since the In Color Opal Rounds come in all 5 In Colors you can create all different combinations easily.

Check out this quick video tutorial and PDF I whipped up for you so you can make this card too.

More fun with Sale-a-bration Hippest Hippos

These fun Sale-a-bration products will bring a smile to your face. The Hippest Hippo (Sale-a-bration 159921) is filled with fun sentiments and great images to color.

And the Hippo Dies (Sale-a-bration 159928) give you great add on options too!

And great news you can earn them with a qualifying order one at time or together – the choice is yours. Here are some cards that were created using these two products that I received in my swap.

This first card uses our Scalloped Contour (155560) and Stitched Rectangles Dies (151820) to highlight the ballerina and her little umbrella. Texture was added to the card with the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder (157980), can you see it? And do you recognized the paper that was used for the umbrella? Its from our pack of Free Rings of Love Designers Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 159939). And this next card uses our fun Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper (159651) as a back drop along with the fun Split Card Texture Dies (159162) found in the Annual Catalog on page 174.

Our 2022-2024 In Color Matt Decorative Dots (159186) and Fun Flower Resin Shapes (159123) add a bit more whimsy to the card. And next up is a sweet simple card done in Real Red and Pool Party – a great color combination.

Our Blending Brushes (153611) and Pool Party Classic Ink (147107) were used behind the hippo to highlight her. And last but not least this fun water themed card was made using products from the Mini Catalog.

I just love the way our products coordinate, don’t you? Not only does this card used the Hippo Dies for the wave it also uses our Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper (host 159913) and Adhesive Backed Sequins and Gems (159972). If you haven’t seen these Sequins and Gems in person I can tell you they are dazzling!

Well that is it for today, but be sure to stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a fun card tutorial using these 2 Sale-a-bration products with you.

It’s a Wonderful World of flowers!

Flowers, evoke so many memories for me from childhood. My great-aunt Adeline had a yard full of them, really I think it was more like acres! Every time we visited in the summer we walked the yard, she would show us each flower bed and what was planted in them. Such a labor of love and so the Wonderful World Sale-a-bration bundle (159918) makes me think of her and others in my family who took such pride in their flower gardens.

In true Stampin’ Up! style, The Wonderful World Bundle also includes a fantastic pack of Designer Series Paper filled with images to compliment the stamp set. Why not take a minute to check out these lovely cards using the Bundle that I recived in a recent swap I hosted?

Lovely and soft this first card and since the Wonderful World stamp set is a image stamp set it’s perfect to team up with the sentiment you need from your favorite sentiment set like the Celebrating You stamp set (158028)!

This next uses the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch (152709) to highlight each of the flowers making it a quick and easy card to make. The sentiment is from our Limited Edition stamp set (158754).

And for a bit of interest this next card uses our Scalloped Contour Dies (155560) and our Blending Brushes to add a bit of interest along with a bit of sparkle from the Adhesive-Backed Seasonal Sequins (159964).

And if you love roses how about these last 2 cards? The first one uses our Stylish Shapes Dies (159183) with it’s delicate stitched edging to create a focal point

along with the Brushed Brass Butterflies (158136) and Festive Pearls (159963). Don’t you love how our products coordinate? And last but not least is this lovely Blackberry Bliss rose.

Texture has been added with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder (156505) and the sentiment banner has been punched with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch (152883). So what do you think? Do you have a favorite card that I shared with you today? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which one is your favorite?

Enjoy!

Wonderful and Amazing Phrasing

I love me a good sentiment set. They are versatile since they work with everything and make finding just the thing you want to say. If you like sentiment sets too, you will want to be sure to check out this NEW option that is FREE during Sale-a-bration.

The Amazing Phrasing stamp set (159930) gives you a ton of options in a fun bold font. So why not team it up with some of our Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper options like these cards did? This first card uses the Silver & Gold 6×6 Designer Series Paper (159941) to add a bit of sparkle.

Polished Pink and Basic Black complete the look. These next two cards use the lovely Rings of Love Designer Series Paper (159939) along with the sentiments from the set. It’s a great pack of paper that coordinates with our Ringed with Nature Bundle (159889) found in the Mini.

Don’t you just love these little birds?

There is a great variety of designs that have a soft watercolor feel, but as you can see the paper works great with this sentiment set too.

So if you like sentiments you’ll want to be sure to check out this one found in our Sale-a-bration offering. And don’t forget our 3 options of Designer Series Paper too!

Enjoy and then stop back by on Friday when I’ll be sharing a fun video tutorial with you!
