The Stampers Showcase are sharing their Sale-a-Bration Inspiration with you today and I wonder if our favourites are the same? Welcome to this month’s hop and our Sale-a-Bration favourites.
I’m sure Rochelle has already shared some fabulous inspiration and I hope to share yet more. For me, I have a firm favourite that I return to time and time again, plus an upcoming new one.
A good sentiment stamp set is often hard to find, but a good go-to one is worth its weight in gold. Sending you Thoughts is a Level One FREE Gift in the first launch of the Sale-a-Bration products.
There are so many words that you can piece together to make your own sentiments, I just love it. I love the mix of fonts in the one sentiment.
Second Release Sale-a-Bration
From 3rd March, Stampin’ Up! will be offering a second release of Sale-a-Bration freebies. With advanced ordering for Demonstrators, I’ve been playing with a few soon to launch sets already. I share one with you here today.
Masculine cards can often be quite hard to design, so to have a masculine stamp set released as part of the second phase is just amazing. I couldn’t wait to get playing with Well Dressed. I’m delighted to see a set suitable for masculine cards.
I wanted a collage of a few of the images, clustered as if taken off and set aside. A card created by Michelle Last recently inspired me to add the brick embossed panel to one side. I had to smile when I realised that I’d used the ‘Tailored Tag’ Punch as a backdrop, what a perfectly fitting name. These cards are so very tailored and very dapper.
From hats, shoes and umbrellas, to the smart business tie, I thought this card would be perfectly fitting to celebrate the start of a new job. My choice of Designer Series Paper was inspired by the pattern in this tie.
Possibly hard to see, but I do like to add simple scored parallel lines to add detail to an otherwise simple card.
Our son is only 9 years old but he can’t wait to become of age to pass his driving test. This final card would be just perfect for this occasion. I added a little key from the Bird Ballad Trinkets. Repeatedly stamping the chevron image to the left with the Stamparatus, gave a great border.
Freebies Galore
I was chuffed to bits with how easy these cards came together and to think they were created from two FREE Stamp Sets is even better. Spend £45 and you can choose either of these sets (Well Dressed #152300 being available from 3rd March). Spend £90 and you could choose both. With this kind of spend, I’d be foolish not to recommend our amazing Starter Kit offer.
Spend £99 and choose £130 worth of products, plus an additional Stamp Set of your choice (any value). You’ll also receive a Mini Paper Cutter and a sample pack of Designer Series Papers from the new Mini Catalogue. This really is an amazing offer and one that will have you gaining future purchases with a minimum 20% discount. If you’d like to discuss this offer further, then be sure to get in contact.
I hope you have liked my offering for you today and I hope you too will get excited about Well Dressed when it becomes available next week. Meanwhile, take a look at what the others have to inspire us with.
Next up is Mo Rootes. Mo is in fact one of my long-standing Team Members and friends and a very talented lady.
