This is my absolute favorite time of the year! Sale-A-Bration is in full swing and as an avid paper crafter I am always excited when I can get more for my stamping dollar. This year Stampin’ Up! went all out, not only can you choose from some awesome stamp sets, there is ribbon, Designer Series Paper, Kits, Thinlits, and a even a Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder! And not only can you get a free item for every $50 you spend you can also choose a few offerings at the $100 level. Such choices…where to start??
First up a new style stamp, photo realistic. It is patent pending and makes such an impressive statement.
For this card I used Calypso Coral, Basic Gray and Whisper White. The little pearls are colored using Calypso Coral and Smoky Slate blends. Such an easy way to color coordinate all your projects!
How about something fun for a birthday? Party Pandas is perfect!
The fun bright colors of Lemon Lime Twist and Melon Mambo make this a card anyone would love! The Melon Mambo balloon is created using the Balloon Bouquet punch then I added some Basic Black bakers twine for a cute little bow. To give the balloon some dimension the edges were sponged using Melon Mambo ink then attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
For a quick and easy card try using Beautiful Peacock!
The colors of Lemon Lime Twist and Bermuda Bay go beautifully together, very peacock like don’t you think? This card is done very clean & simple leaving a lot of white space and the set is photopolymer so lining up the peacock is a breeze!
Finally as I mentioned, Stampin’ Up! has added a few items that are available at the $100 level. One of those is the Celebrate You Thinlits and they coordinate with the Amazing You set available at the $50 level. If you have an order of $150 or more not only will you earn Stampin’ Rewards but you can get the set and coordinating thinlits for free!
For this card I used the colors from the stunning Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series paper; Calypso Coral, Melon Mambo, Powder Pink, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White and accents of Gold Foil. I cut the “YOU” from Melon Mambo and “amazing” from Rich Razzleberry cardstock. The little heart was cut from the Lots to Love Box Framelits Dies using Calypso Coral. I decided to pick up the gold accents and embossed “are simply” with gold embossing powder on Powder Pink cardstock.
