Are you ready for another sneak peak from the upcoming Sale a bration?
Sale a bration starts on January 5th as well as the new January to April Mini Catalog.
Each Sale a bration I look forward to seeing what the whimsical stamp set will be and we get these items for FREE, stampers!!
These ADORABLE OWLS will be a BIG hit for sure!
The first card that I made with the Adorable Owls was inspired by Stacey Marsh on Pinterest (no blog link)When we went to Indianapolis for the OnStage event in November we were gifted the DECORATIVE BORDERS Stamp Set, and this card was genius to combine the two. The "just saying Hello" is from the SIMPLY FABULOUS stamp set.
As soon as I saw the little owl stamp set I immediately thought how cute he would be with a graduation cap on.His little grad cap was made using the BEAUTIFUL SHAPES Dies. I made a template from the BASIC BORDERS Dies and some Balmy Blue ink to create the cloudy sky Other: Bough Punch, Peaceful Moments Stamp Set, Round & Square Brads
The second thought I had was how cute he would look with a Santa hatProduct Used: Real Red Card Stock, Basic White, Regals Designer Paper, Hope & Peace Stamp Set, Timber Embossing Folder, Layering Circles Dies, Snowfall Accents Puff Paint. His cute little Santa hat came from the October 2022 Paper Pumpkin stamp set.
THEN... I decided I needed to treat the little owls to every occasion!!
Valentines Day!Product Used: Merry Melody Embossing Folder, ALPHABET ALA MODE DIES (another sneak peak of a new product in the January-April Mini)
How about St Patrick's Day?
Product Used: Garden Green card stock, Regals Designer Paper, Give It A Whirl Dies (hearts to make the shamrocks), Timeworn Type Embossing Folder, 1-1/4" & 1-3/8" Circle Punches (retired). The little hat and the sentiment were geared on my computer.
Next Up: Easter - I could just picture the little owl flying with a basket filled with easter eggs.
I created the basket with the BEAUTIFUL SHAPES Dies and for the handle it is a 3/4" & a 1" Circle punches (retired). I embossed the little basket with the HIVE embossing folder. The grasses come from the PALMS DIES
Other: Timeworn Type Embossing Folder, Design a Daydream Designer Paper (host exclusive in the Annual Catalog), Celebrating You Stamp Set.
The itty bitty Easter Eggs were made using the center of the zero in the Playful Alphabet die set. This alphabet die set is retired but hopefully you snagged them up before it was too late. However, I can only imagine you can find a similar oval shape in your stash of dies, you just need to be creative in your search.
Next Up: Mother's Day - I kept thinking of an airplane flying overhead with a big banner saying "Happy Mother's Day" - This is super simple, but all I could come up with, with the vision I had in my head.Product Used: Pretty Prints Designer Paper, Happy & Heartfelt (retired), banner die from Hold On To Hope (retired)
PATRIOTIC for July 4th, but could also be used for Memorial Day or Veteran's Day
Normally I use this template in the opposite direction but with the fireworks designer paper (from CELEBRATE EVERYTHING) I thought it looked better in this direction. Other: a non-Stampin' Up! stamp set called OF THEE I SING.
Last, but not least is a fall themed cardProduct Used: Celebrate Everything Designer Paper (Host exclusive from the July to December mini - retiring soon). TIP: the paper is black and white so I sponged Granny Apple Green ink over the leaves so that they would stand out behind the ASPEN Die. HELLO HARVEST (retiring soon), Textured Embossing Folder (retired) - it just needed "something". I really hate the flat look so I textured it.
