stamp review crew: sale-a-bration bonus

By

Hello crafty friends! The Stamp Review Crew is back with a BONUS blog hop this month! Normally, we put one stamp set center stage and everyone in the blog hop creates projects with that set. For this hop we are shining a spotlight on the different stamp sets in the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration brochure. (You can get these sets FREE with a qualifying purchase.)

My project uses the Berry Blessings stamp set and Berry Delightful DSP – a fun bundle you can get with a $100 purchase.

Doesn’t this card make you think of a summer picnic, warm summer days and snacks of delicious fresh berries. Maybe staring at projects made with this will help me through the long winter here in MN… sigh.

Now, go check out some more great Sale-a-Bration projects! you can go on to Linda by clicking the NEXT button below or you can go back to Charlet by clicking on the PREVIOUS button.

Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the first Paper Craft Crew challenge of the new year. If you are unfamiliar with the Paper Craft Crew, it is a fun challenge blog that has weekly craft challenges to help jump start your creativity. I am honored to be part of the PCC Design Team. We are going to start the year with a fun vertical card sketch.

Of course, when I looked at this sketch I saw those 3 triangles and naturally I thought…Strawberries! (OK, so maybe I had some new products from Stampin’ Up!’s 2021 Sale-A-Bration on my desk that might have influenced that a bit.) I grabbed the Berry Blessings Stamp set and Berry Delightful DSP – which is a fun bundle you can earn for FREE with a $100 purchase from Jan. 5-Feb 28- and got to work. Here is my take on the sketch.

I cut out the large strawberries from one sheet of the DSP and used another for the background panel. I had a fun sheet of burlap paper that I found at Hobby Lobby and thought it was a great base for the berry trio.

Well, now I am longing for warm summer days and fresh strawberries…. Sigh, it will be awhile before that happens.

Come on over to the Paper Craft Crew blog and play along!

stamp review crew: so sincere

By

Hello my crafty friends! Welcome to the first Stamp Review Crew blog hop of the new year!  If you are not familiar with The Stamp Review Crew, we are a group of international Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators who hop together on the first and third Monday of the month to bring you some great inspiration. Each blog hop features a different stamp set. You can find all of the blog hops archived on the Stamp Review Crew blog. We are going to kick off 2021 by shining a spotlight on the awesome sentiment set So Sincere.

For both of my cards, I embossed the sentiments on some designer series paper. I like the bit of design behind the words. It gives some depth to the image. My first card also uses the Celebrate Sunflowers set and dies, In Good Taste and 20-21 In Color DSP Stack, and the In Color Bumblebee ink.

For my second card I added a beautiful peony that I die cut out of water color paper and colored with Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo and Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green and Garden Green ink refills.

This particular sentiment works for a variety of occasions. This card would be great for a birthday or a wedding. The So Sincere set is full of some great sentiments in wonderful fonts and opens the door to lots of design possibilities.

I hope you will work your way through the full Stamp Review Crew blog hop for more great inspiration! From here you can click on the NEXT button below to head on over to talented Cindy or click on the PREVIOUS button to go back to creative Betty
