Welcome to the Stampers Dozen monthly blog hop. We’re so glad you joined us. Be sure to visit all of the blogs on the hop by following the links at the end of this post.
This month, all of the participating stampers are following the same sketch. Check out each blog to see how all of the creators interpret the sketch.
Here’s the sketch we’re working with.
And, here’s the card I created.
A few details about my card. I gathered a variety of current Stampin’ Up! product to put my card together:
Beautiful Balloons stamp set and coordinating dies
Soft Shimmer 12 x 12 Combo Pack (Berry Burst)
Countryside Corners Dies
Basics 3D Embossing Folder (Online Exclusive)
Berry Burst and Azure Afternoon color combination
Why Use a Sketch?
It offers inspiration when you’ve possibly lost your mojo.
A sketch lets you use whatever you have in your stash.
It helps you get the creativity flowing.
A sketch provides a beginning framework for any card project.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog today. I hope you’re inspired by the talented stampers sharing their handmade creations with you. See this post for other ideas on using the Beautiful Balloons Bundle.
Do you ever fall in love with a stamp set and keep on using it and using it? That’s me! I preordered Stampin’ Up!’s Circle Sayings Bundle in April and have been playing with it ever since. I’ve paired it with different fun folds and different Designer Series Papers. Find the bundle on page 17 of Stampin’ Up!’ 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. Receive a 10 percent discount when you purchase the stamp set and 2 3/8″ circle punch together.
I love this stamp set because it contains all of the sentiments I use regularly. It pairs easily with different papers and designs.
Today, I show you how to make a birthday card with a fun fold suing Circle Sayings and Bright & Beautiful 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. (Fun fold inspired by Susan Campfield.)
