NEW Rise & Shine Saleabration Stamp Set - Global Stampin’ Video Hop

Hello and welcome to my blog again for my second post today; You may be wondering why I have a post going up so late in the evening today?  Well, it's because I am taking part in the very first Global Stampin' Video Hop and I am going to share that here with you and the project I made for this Global Stampin' Up! Independent  Demonstrator Vlog Hop.  We have demonstrators from all over the world sharing videos with you today as part of the Global Stampin' Video Hop, I believe we have someone from almost every market that Stampin' Up! is in.  So this is a great  way to see what other's around the world are sharing using the wonderful products from Stampin' Up!.  This will happen each month on the last Friday of the month (which for me falls on the last Thursday of the month due to my time zone here in the US), where we will be sharing a project video with you featuring a new theme around some of the best products around.  This month our theme was "NEW".  We could pick from any thing that would be new; like a new baby, new home, new product, new whatever.  I picked to share a new product that will be coming out in a few days as part of the 2nd Sale-A-Bration release.  I am going to share with you a card that I made using the new Rhine & Shine Reversable Sale-a-bration stamp set.  Here's a look at my project.

I just love this little fun stamp set and so will any coffee or tea drinker in your life.  It has such fun sentiments and imagery that will make anyone happy.  I paired this with the Please as Punch Designer Series Paper for a fun colorful card that would make you just feel super happy if you received this card.  My card base is a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock cut to 4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 to make a top folding card.  I used the Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut out my mat and Designer Series Paper layers.  I used the largest and next to largest rectangle dies to do that.  I just love how the Stitched Rectangle Dies layer together perfectly.
The Rise & Shine Stamp set makes you want to rise and shine and start stamping! Use the Rise & Shine Stamp Set to create cards and other projects with hot morning beverages and greetings that are sure to warm anyone’s heart. This stamp set is a Reversibles** set, so some of the stamps are two sided with an image on each side of the stamp for more creative options. Earn this stamp set FREE March 3–March 31, 2020, during part two of our Sale-A-Bration promotion!
To cut out the stamped cups and a couple of the other images in the stamp set I used the I used the Cup of Cheer Dies from the 2019 Holiday Catalog.  Yes, these were listed on the Retirement list so if you pulled yours and put them in your retired stash you will differently want to pull them back out again to have a fun time matching them with the Rise & Shine Stamp Set.
The Rise & Shine Stamp Set with the Cup of Cheer Dies will add a little warm feeling to your heart during the Spring and any other season that comes along.

Video Tutorial:  

Here you will find my video which is part of this video hop.  If you are viewing this post by email you may have to click here or the image below to see the video.  Not all mail servers will show the embedded video.  

After layering the designer series paper and the whisper white mat onto my card base I cut out a the largest stitched circle from the stitched shape dies and added it to the card front with the steam image stamped on to it with Smoky Slate ink.  I then placed it so that it was coming off the edge of the card and snipped off the excess.  I then stamped one of the cup images from the set and cut it out with the Cup of Cheer Dies and placed it on the circle where it looked like the steam was coming from the cup.  I popped the die cut cup up with a few Stampin' Dimensionals to give it a new layer.  
I then stamped the same cup onto a piece of 4 x 5 1/4 piece of whisper white along with another sentiment from the stamp set for the inside of my card.  And, glued it to the inside with multipurpose liquid glue.  To finish off my card and add a little shine to it I added a few Basic Rhinestones on some of the flowers on the Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper layer (which by the way matches punches from the Sale-a-bration brochure and the January-June Mini Catalog.)  If you don't have this paper yet you totally need to grab it and any other of the coordinating products before they are gone.  They are only while supplies last or until March 31, 2020.

Wishing You The Best - Tags in Bloom New Saleabration Stamp Set

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you a card I made using the New Tags in Bloom Stamp Set.   Brighten someone’s day with a tag or card you make using the Tags in Bloom Stamp Set. This Two-Step Stampin’ set lets you layer images to create more depth and interest. Stamp the outline flower image in one color, then stamp the corresponding solid flower image over it with a different color. The photopolymer clear stamps make it easy to align the images. Earn this stamp set FREE with a qualifying purchase March 3–March 31, 2020, during part two of our Sale-A-Bration.  Here's a look at my card.

Tips & Tricks: 

I started out with stamping the floral frame in Melon Mambo on a piece of Whisper White cardstock.  Next I stamped the fill in stamps to add the colors to the flowers, and leaves.  For that I used Melon Mambo stamped off for the outside of the flowers.  For the inside I used So Saffron, and for the leaves I used Granny Apple Green.  
Once I had everything on the floral frame stamped I stamped the stitched label in Granny Apple Green Ink and then the sentiment in So Saffron.  I used the Label me Lovely Punch and punched out the stitched tag and popped it up in the center of the floral one using dimensionals.  I then layered that piece onto a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock, and then popped that up onto the card base (Melon Mambo) over the Granny Apple Green Gingham pattern from the Brights DSP paper pack.  
To finish off the card I added a few rhinestones to the card front along with a double bow that I made using pieces of the burlap that I removed from the Burlap Braided Trim from the Tropical Oasis Suite.  I love the texture that the twine from this ribbon gives to the project.  It has great texture that's hard to come by.  You also get a ton when you start pulling it apart.

Gangs all Meer Pillow Box - Case the Catalog Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you this weeks CASE the catalog project.  This week I am going to share with you a super cute project from the Saleabration Brochure.  Today's project is a super cute pillow box that makes for some wonderful gift packaging not to mention it was decorated wonderfully for a  Birthday gift.  Casing is the perfect solution if you are ever in need of an idea or looking to improve your skills.  CASE stands for Copy and Share Everything, or Copy And Selectively Edit.  Plus all the Stampin' Up! catalogs are great for ideas, inspiration, and creative sparks.  Here's a look at the todays project.

 Tips & Tricks: 

You're going to need about a 6 1/2" x 3" piece of the Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper.  You are going to open the pillow box fill it with your gift and then close the other end.  Add Tear & Tape to one end of the Designer series paper and wrap it around the pillow box secure the other end with the tear & tape.  Stamp the two little meerkats onto the a large stitched whisper white circle.  Stamp the birthday hat in Pacific point ink on top of one of the meerkats heads.   

Color the meerkats with crumb cake ink and a blender pen.  Repeat the coloring process on the ground.  Color the sky with the blender pen and a little pool party ink.  Attach the stitched circle when dry to the pillow box with a couple dimensionals.  
Wrap some of the Bermuda Bay Mini Striped Ribbon around the pillow box and tie into a bow.  Stamp the sentiments on some scrap cardstock and cut them down.  Add to the stitched circles using mini stampin' dimensionals.  Punch a hole in the circle and run some Linen thread through it and tie to the bow.  
And that finishes this super cute project.  I told you this was a super quick easy and cute project.  

You can earn The Gangs All Meer Stamp Set for free during Sale-a-bration with a qualifying order of $50.00.  All of the supplies needed for this project can be ordered in my online store.
