Stampin’ Friends: Happy Fourth

Happy Fourth of July! Welcome to the Stampin’ Friends June Blog Hop.

Thanks for joining us on this blog hop! We’re featuring a variety of cards and projects demonstrating what’s going on in our corner of the world. Follow the list of hoppers at the end of this post. Be sure to leave a comment.

Happy Fourth

The 4th of July doesn’t rate as one of the top card-sending holidays. But, why not? I have the supplies, so make the card and send it.

Stampin' Friends Happy Fourth

I used a bunch of Stampin’ Up! products to make this festive and celebratory card come together:

  • Poppy Parade, Misty Moonlight, and Whisper White Card Stock
  • Flowers for Every Season 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper
  • Nature’s Thoughts Dies
  • Stitched Stars Dies
  • Comfort and Hope Stamp Set
  • Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set
  • Classic Label Punch
  • Misty Moonlight Classic Stamp Pad

Treat Favor

Headed to a party? Give this cute 4th of July treat to a party hostess. Or make a bunch for your own party guests. I decorated one of Stampin’ Up!’s Clear Tiny Treat Boxes and filled them with holiday themed jelly beans.

These 2 x 2 Clear Acetate Boxes make perfect receptacles for a variety of treats. I used the same supplies for this package as the card. I added the Misty Moonlight In Color Ribbon to top off the package.

All of the supplies used to create both the card and the treat package are found in Stampin’ Up!’s new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog.

Happy Birthday to You!

Featuring the Sale-A-Bration set, Happy Birthday to You!, for Team Stamp It’s February Blog Hop.

Welcome to the Team Stamp It February Blog Hop where the stampers are sharing projects using Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-A-Bration projects. We’re glad you joined us today. Be sure to visit all of the blogs on the hop and leave a comment to be entered to win the Looking Up all-inclusive card kit. Use the hashtag: #stampitcontest.

In case you haven’t heard, Sale-A-Bration is Stampin’ Up!’s most fun sale of the year. Make a minimum $50 purchase and receive your choice of free items, including exclusive stamp sets, Designer Series Paper and more.

Today’s Card

My card showcases the Happy Birthday to You! stamp set. You can earn it free with a $50 purchase. In addition, I used the Birthday Dies (#153590/$27) from the Coordination Product Release.

It’s such a pretty card, and I’m pleased with the results. Here’s a list of other Stampin’ Up! products used to create this card:

  • Parisian Blooms Specialty Designer Series Paper (January-June 2020 Mini Catalog)
  • Stitched So Sweetly Dies (January-June 2020 Mini Catalog)
  • Subtle Embossing Folder (January-June 2020 Mini Catalog)
  • Petal Pink 1/4-inch Metallic-Edge Ribbon
  • Gold Embossing Powder and Heat Gun
  • Petal Pink, So Saffron, Soft Sea Foam, and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends
  • Petal Pink, Basic Black and Very Vanilla card stock

A Tip

The Petal Pink 1/4-inch Metallic-Edge Ribbon has been so popular, it’s currently on back order. But if you want to replicate this card, purchase Gold 3/8-inch Metallic-Edge Ribbon and use the Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends to color the ribbon. This technique works well to create coordinating ribbon in any Stampin’ Blend Color.

Another hint: Look for more Sale-A-Bration products to be released Tuesday, March 4. Love, love, love the Designer Series Papers and stamp set.

Thanks for stopping by today. Remember, visit all of the blogs on the hop. There are a lot of fun projects for you.

Congratulations to last month’s winner: Lois Heiland.

Piece of Cake Birthday Card

I’m sharing another card I received during my birthday month! This one came from Karen Page and uses Stampin’ Up!’s Piece of Cake stamp (found in the Annual Catalog on page 64). It’s paired with the Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper (found in the January-June 2020 Mini Catalog).

Stampin' Up! Piece of Cake

Stampin’ Up! Piece of Cake

For the details on the Piece of Cake birthday card, see Karen’s post here.

If you look closely, you can see this card uses an item that can be earned free during Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-A-Bration sale. It’s the So Saffron Metallic Baker’s Twine. (This free gift with purchase includes two rolls of sparkly baker’s twine and sequins).

Sale-A-Bration

This exciting promotion runs through March 31, so there’s still time to get in on the free stuff. There are three ways to take advantage of the savings: Shop, Host, Join.

Shop: Make purchases of $50 and $100 and get the opportunity to select fun and exclusive items from the Sale-A-Bration brochure. Remember to look for the Product Coordination Release, fun goodies that complement some of the Sale-A-Bration offerings and items found in the January-June 2020 Mini.

Host: Host a party for your friends, get orders of $300 and earn the Little Ladybug stamp set free. (Or, create your own order to receive the set and additional benefits.)

Join: Do you have a large wish list? This is the perfect time to get Stampin’ Up!’s Starter Kit. For just $99 (plus tax), choose $125 worth of product (it’s all shipped free). In addition, you receive any stamp set of your choice, a mini paper trimmer, and a 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper Stack. Then, receive a 20 percent discount on future purchases. It’s a win-win situation. You’ll be joining a fun community of stampers who also receive fun perks from Stampin’ Up! What are you waiting for?

Also, beginning March 3, look for a second release of products you can earn free. There’s fun color vellum, copper foil paper, and new and exclusive stamp sets. Stay tuned! I just received the new brochures, so let me know if you want one.

Thanks for stopping by today! And, thanks to Karen for sharing her Piece of Cake birthday card with me!
