DO Stamping with the Stars #403 SALE-a-bration Hop

 

SALE-a-brate Good Time! Come ON

It's a SALE-a-bration!
Every time Stampin’ Up! has its SALE-a-bration sale I just start singing this song.  It is indeed a Good Time to SALE-a-brate with unique FREE products (with qualified purchase). Today my fellow STARS and I will be sharing a variety of projects using FREE products from the SALE-a-bration brochure. 

 
My card features the Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper, which is Free with a $50 purchase.  The colors are just exquiste!  Below are all the 12 sheets, 2 each of 6 double-sided designs.
I just love how this paper works so well with the Fragrant Flowers Bundle found in the Jan-Apr Mini Catalog.  The dies fit perfectly over the flowers in this sheet of DSP.  I added the Quatrefoil Tile embossing folder to add that extra dimension on this card.  The sentiment, heat embossed in gold, also uses the die in the  bundle.  I die cut out an extra in Petal Pink card stock and cut it in half and glued to the outer edges to add depth.

DO Stamping with the Stars #402 Sketch Inspiration


HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hello everyone and welcome to a new DO Stamping with the Stars Sketch Inspiration!  I have been MIA for the last few Stars challenges due to breaking my wrist. After 5 weeks in a cast, I now have 4 weeks with a brace and then physical therapy! 

I have finally made my first card, somewhat one handed! Anyway, here is the sketch.


And here is my interpretation!



Isn’t this Designer Series Paper (DSP) just adorable?  It is the star of this birthday card. It is called A Day at The Farm.  The BEST part of this paper is that it is FREE with a $50 purchase! You get 12 sheets, 2 each of 6 double sides.  You can see the different sides below.   Click here to see all the other FREE product you can get during SALE-a-bration, which only runs January and February.  






I began this card with a thick Basic White cardstock base. Then, I embossed Balmy Blue cardstock with the Hive embossing folder to add another dimension to the card.  I love how the Daffodil Delight cardstock panel behind the DSP brought out the yellow of the sweet little chicks. The small Cherry Cobbler cardstock panel and stamped sentiment gave an additional pop of color as well as the Black & White Gingham ribbon bow.   I completed this birthday card with a simple black Classic Mat dot.  The sentiment is from Celebrating You cling stamp set. 


I hope you enjoy this card.  Both the measurements and supplies are listed below.
