With only two days left until SALE-a-bration ends, I couldn’t resist sharing these three cards that bring together the Stunning Queen Bee stamp set with two of the FREE Sale-a-bration items: the Thanks a Bunch Stamp set and the Hive 3D embossing folder.
Thanks a Bunch Stamp SetHive 3D Embossing folder
There’s a tiny stamp in the Thanks a Bunch stamp set that works really well on this graphic, tattoo style of card – the 5 dots in a row. I’ve used this dot stamp on all three cards below, along with other stamps from both stamp sets and freehand drawn lines using a ruler and a Black Stampin’ Write marker.
The square thanks card also uses the Hive 3D embossing folder as well as the large bee stamp, the crown stamp and the thanks sentiment from the Queen Bee stamp set.
The love you card also uses the two carrot tops from Thanks a Bunch.
The Hey, There card also uses the bee stamp and the flower stamp from the Queen Bee stamp set, as well as the Hive 3D embossing folder.
I love the freedom this style of cardmaking gives me to take stamped images and take them to the next level.
Don’t forget that SALE-a-bration ends midnight tomorrow so don’t miss out if you would like to add any of these gorgeous products to your craft collection.
I’ll be back this Wednesday March 1, with the AWH Colour Creations team to showcase Real Red. I hope you can join us then.
It’s been a very long time since I joined the CASEing the Catty challenge so I’m excited to play along again this week. The #CTC351 challenge is to case the 2022 Sale-a-bration Catalogue.
I decided to CASE this card on page 7 of the 2022 Sale-a-bration Catalogue.
I’ve used two new products from the January – June Mini Catalogue for my CASE: the Happy Hedgehogs punch bundle and the Hive Embossing folder. I’ve also used a FREE SALE-a-bration product, the Special Moment stamp set.
I kept the layout and design very similar to the card I’m CASEing in the catalogue, basically changing the colours and the stamp set used.
The “Thanks for brightening up my day” sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set is the perfect sentiment for my bright and shiny gold hedgehog. He certainly brightens up what is otherwise a deliberately monochromatic card!
I used Black Stazon ink to stamp the hedgehog onto the gold foil and then punched the hedgehog out using the hedgehog builder punch.
The sentiment was stamped twice, once in Memento Black and one in Versamark ink that I then gold embossed to match the hedgehog. I fussy cut both sentiments using paper snips and adhered to the card with dimensionals.
I didn’t forget the inside of the card either, using one of the sentiments from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set. I think it works really well with the sentiment on the front of the card.
If you’d like me to post you your very own copy of the 2022 Sale-a-bration Catalogue, the January – June 2022 Mini Catalogue, the 2021-22 Stampin Up! Annual Catalogue or to simply find out about more about Stampin’ Up! contact me.
I’ll be back on Wednesday night with the AWH Colour Creations team and we will be showcasing Old Olive.
In the meantime, wherever you are in the world, stay safe, stay calm…and keep on crafting xxx
