Today’s card is a second sneak peek of what Sale-a-bration has in store for you. The Flight & Airy Designer Paper is gorgeous! You’re going to want it, especially since it’s a FREE Sale-a-bration item!
I fussy cut birds for my first design, but today, I simply cropped the bird with a Deckled Rectangles Die, 2 1/4″ X 3 1/2″.
Sneak Peek #2
For the background, I cut a 2″ wide strip of Flight & Airy DSP in Fresh Freesia, and glued it to Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″. Then, I used the largest Deckled Rectangles Die for cutting.
Before attaching the layer, with Dimensionals, to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, I embossed it with the Exposed Brick Embossing Folder.
“My heart will always be tied to yours” is from Wonderful Thoughts, a great sentiment bundle that is in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. You can see all of the sentiments with dies in my Product List below.
I stamped it in Fresh Freesia Ink, used its Wonderful Thoughts Die for cutting, and attached it with glue and Dimensionals.
The last detail was adding three, Fresh Freesia Tinsel Gems.
Sale-a-bration begins January 3, along with the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog. However, if you join Stampin’ Up!, you can pre-order beginning December 5. This is one of the perks of being a Demonstrator. I’d love for you to join my Dream Makers Team; just click HERE.Â
