I just returned from Stampin’ Up!’s annual incentive trip. This year, we took an Alaskan cruise. It’s such an honor to earn and take a trip like this. Less than 1 percent of demonstrators achieve this, but I’m so fortunate to be sharing and offering something I love.
On each trip, demonstrators are encouraged to bring a card to swap with other demonstrators. Even though 277 demonstrators took the trip, not all of them swap. And, from all of the swaps, we get a sampling of 15.
Today, I want to share the card I created for the swap. It uses a combination of Stampin’ Up!’s Balloon Festoon Bundle and the Playful Packaging Bundle. I really wanted to try to use the dies in a different way.
Measurements and Details
- Petal Pi k cardstock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4
- Stamped dots from Balloon Festoon stamp set randomly with Petal Pink ink
- Balloon from Balloon Festoon Dies die cut with Brights Painted Patterns 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper (Daffodil Delight dotted pattern)
- Die cut two of the smaller scallop pieces (Playful Packaging Dies) from Bloom Boutique 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper (Hydrangea Hue pattern. The 2026-2028 In Color-Hydrangea Hue-Painted Patterns also works.) I trimmed about 1/2 inch off each of the flat sides before adhering to card base.
