Stampin’ Sunday – Sale-a-Bration Favourites

January 12, 2020 by Mikaela Titheridge 10 Comments

A warm welcome to the weekend and the Stampin’ Sunday Blog Hop. It’s going to be a hard hop today, as we choose our Sale-a-Bration Favourites to play with.

Stampin' Sunday Blog Hop with Mikaela Titheridge, UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

With an amazing array of products available in the 2020 Sale-a-Bration offering, it’s been hard to choose a firm favourite to play with. I particularly like the Happy Birthday to You Stamp Set that’s Free with a £45 spend. It offers both sentiments and an image you can break down into just flowers.

Happy Birthday to You FREE with a £45 spend. Flowers and cake, what better combination by Mikaela Titheridge, UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

I have shown here how you can use this single Stamp Set for a Beginner, a Casual Crafter and an Advanced Crafter. Each card steps it up little by little.

Beginner

Stamped in Black Memento Ink and coloured in using our First Release of Watercolour Pencils. Although our Watercolour Pencils are super soft, I still like to smooth out any pencil lines using a Blender Pen.

Casual Crafter

I created a matting layer for this card and randomly stamped the cake off at an angle, to capture mainly the flowers. The sentiment was stamped on a scrap of Whisper White and fussy cut around it for mounting.

I mounted the sentiment with mini Dimensionals over a twine bow. Using a Bermuda Bay card base, helped pull together the base and the flowers.

Avid Crafter

Stepping it up slightly, I embossed the matting layer with the new Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder. The texture that this creates is just gorgeous. This time I fussy cut the flowers from the cake and mounted them using Dimensional Foam pads.

By Heat Embossing the sentiment white on Black, a dramatic contrast to the softer look of the card, was achieved. Again, fussy cutting added curves and interest.

Three slightly different cards, but each beautiful in their own right.

Do you like FREE Products? Then you're going to lo Do you like FREE Products? Then you're going to love Sale-a-Bration 2021 and this Oh So Ombre Paper. 

The Black contrast of Simply Succulents looks incredible as an overlay to the Oh So Ombre Papers. I so enjoyed creating these, even if it created rather a mess on the floor of all the bits. These cards were created to send out to a few people who have been on my mind throughout the recent announcement of Lockdown. Wanting to add a little shimmer, I pulled in a touch of Black Glimmer Paper that has just retired but this could easily be switched up with some ribbon or a flash of something else. 

These were designed as part of the new Stamping Inkspiration Blog Hop that went live last night. We were sharing Something New.
