Stampin’ Up! Fancy Phrases Count My Blessings Card

Good Morning! Today’s card uses the sentiments from the pretty Stampin’ Up! Fancy Phrases cling stamp set along with some upcoming Sale A Bration designer series paper and a butterfly from the new Fluttering Dies from the new Jan-Jun 2021 Mini Catalog. Sale A Bration starts on January 5, 2021 and that’s when the pretty new Paper Blooms designer series paper will be available along with all the new products from the Jan-June 2021 Mini Catalog. You can find the currently available supplies used to create this card and the card stock cuts at the bottom of this post.

I adhered a panel of the new Sale A Bration Paper Blooms designer series paper to a Night of Navy mat with Stampin’ Seal. The Paper Blooms DSP will be FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale A Bration. I wrapped a length of Denim ribbon around the panel, securing it in the back.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fancy Phrases stamp set in Night of Navy ink on a Rococo Rose panel and cut it out with the die from the Tasteful Labels Dies. I also cut out the butterfly from the embossing die from the new Fluttering Dies from a Seaside Spray panel – isn’t it pretty!! These dies are from the new Jan-June 2021 Mini Catalog and will be available on Jan 5, 2021. I adhered the butterfly to the label with a glue dot and adhered the label to the DSP panel with dimensionals.

I made a bow with the Denim ribbon and adhered it with a glue dot and popped the panel on the front of a Rococo Rose card base with dimensionals. I finished the front with pink iridescent adhesive sequins.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Fancy Phrases stamp set in Rococo Rose ink on a Whisper White panel. I used the Confetti Flowers punch to punch some small flowers from the leftover scraps of Rococo Rose and Seaside Spray panels and used the Night of Navy Stampin’ Blend to color the centers. I adhered them to the card with liquid glue and trimmed the bottom with a strip of the Paper Blooms DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

I didn’t even use the pretty floral images from the Stampin’ Up! Fancy Phrases stamp set – that will have to wait for another time. But I love this sentiment to send to a special friend, so I chose it to go with the pretty embossed butterfly and the simple floral DSP. I can’t wait for January 5!

Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkeys Sneak Peek

Good Morning! Today am sharing another sneak peek of a Sale A Bration item – the Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkeys cling stamp set. I used it to make a whimsical birthday card! You can find the currently available supplies I used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

My card was also inspired by the sketch in CAS(E) this Sketch #399 – isn’t it cute?

I adhered a multicolored striped panel of Playing with Patterns 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a Coastal Cabana card base with liquid glue. I adhered a Calypso Coral dotted panel of DSP on top of the striped panel and finished it off with a strip of multicolored circles.

I stamped the cute, er darling little donkey from the Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkeys stamp set on a small Whisper White panel in Soft Suede ink. I colored him with Early Espresso and Flirty Flamingo Watercolor pencils and used the blender pen to blend and smooth out the colors. I stamped the sentiment in Calypso Coral ink and adhered the panel to a Coastal Cabana mat.

I popped the donkey on the card front and adhered some adhesive backed sequins to the panel.

I stamped another darling donkey from the Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkeys stamp set in the lower corner of a Whisper White panel and colored him like the one on the front. I colored the flower with Calypso Coral and Granny Apple Green Watercolor pencils and stamped the sentiment in Calypso Coral ink. I also stamped the little stars in Coastal Cabana, Calypso Coral and Bumblebee in the opposite corner and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkeys stamp set is another one of those cute, playful animals stamp sets, and it’s FREE during Sale A Bration with an order of $50 or more. Sale A Bration runs January 5, 2021 through February 28, 2021. It’s the best Stampin’ Up! promotion, and next year there will be two Sale A Brations – one in January & February and another in July & August.

Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart Sneak Peek

Good Morning! Today am sharing a sneak peek of a new stamp set that will be part of the Sale A Bration sale that starts next month on January 5. It’s the Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart cling stamp set and it is one of the options that is FREE with a $50 purchase (before taxes and shipping). You can find the currently available supplies I used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped some of the leaves from the Touched My Heart cling stamp set in Pool Party on a panel of the pretty Snowflake Splendor designer series paper after stamping off. This gives is a very subtle flowing image that blends nicely with the watercolor look on the DSP. The Touched My Heart stamp set is a Host set and can be purchased only with host dollars that you receive when you have a workshop or place an order over $150. I adhered the panel to a Whisper White mat and popped it on the front of a Pool Party card base.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart stamp set in Smoky Slate ink on a Pool Party panel and cut it out with the second largest circle from the Stitched Shapes Dies. I stamped the single leaf from the Touched my heart in Pool Party ink next to the sentiment.

I folded a length of sheer Pool Party Ribbon and adhered it to the card with Stampin’ seal and popped the circle on with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart stamp set in Smoky Slate ink on a Whisper White panel and stamped the branch from Touched My Heart underneath in stamped off Pool Party. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of the Snowflake Splendor DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

The font in the Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart stamp set are so beautiful and gentle. It’s so exciting that Sale A Bration is just around the corner. And did you hear that Sale A Bration is going to be different next year? Stampin’ Up! is going to have TWO Sale A Brations next year one in January & February and another in July & August! If you are new to Stampin’ Up! you need to know that Sale A Bration is the biggest Stampin’ Up! sale, where you get to choose free products from the Sale A Bration brochure for each $50 increment in your order. And it starts on January 5, 2021!
