After Christmas this is the most wonderful time of year! At least for crafters anyway… because it’s Sale-a-bration time. This is Stampin’ Up!s biggest promotion of the year. It’s such a great time to stock up on crafting essentials like cardstock and adhesive because it leads to FREE crafting supplies like the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set.
This stamp set is full of great sentiment, so I decided to pair it with the Bee My Valentine stamp set to make a cute Valentine’s day card. But the only traditional Valentine’s day colour I used on this card is pink. Well Bubble Bath actually. For this design I made my own background full of different images. I stamped the larger hearts in Bubble Bath ink. Then I stamped some flowers with Pool Party ink. And to fill in some of the gaps I stamped some little hearts in Highland Heather ink.
I used Pool Party for my card base so that I could also use the Pool Party ribbon that’s also part of Sale-a-bration. The sentiment from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set is in Bubble Bath. And I added a few more little hearts in Pool Party. Next I die cut it with one of the Something Fancy dies to create a cute tag. Then I popped it up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. And to finish it off I added some Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels to the centres of the flowers. What girl doesn’t like a little sparkle for Valentine’s Day?! lol
Other than the die cut tag, this is a nice simple Valentine’s Day card. And as much fun as I’ve been having with the bumblebee from the Bee My Valentine stamp set, it was nice to use a few of the other images.
Check out another card I made with the Bee Mine suite here.
I’ll be sharing all there is to know about Sale-a-bration in my next post so stay tuned! Or if you can’t wait until then, head over to my online shop.
