Sale-A-Brating Berry Delightful Blessings ~ #TGIFC304

 

We made it to Friday in a hurry this week!  Between Monday being a holiday and Tuesday being a snow day, my week has FLOWN by...no complaints here!

As always, Friday means it's time for an all new TGIF Challenges!  With Sale-A-Bration quickly coming to an end, we are focusing on some of our favorite freebies!

The Berry Blessings bundle is, by far, my favorite Level 2 freebie in the Sale-A-Bration catalog this year.  I love the fruity stamps and yummy coordinating Designer Series Paper.  I'm crossing my fingers that this bundle just might carry over...anyone else hoping for that as well?

This stamp set and DSP has made me fall in love with Pacific Point again.  This is a color that I had ignored for a while, but now I can't stop using it!  I stamped the juicy berries in Pacific Point with a Granny Apple Green branch, which I fussy cut and tucked behind the sweet heat embossed sentiment. A few more blueberries in the background complimented the fun blueberry and plaid patterns of DSP.

I wrapped this all up with a pretty bow using the Whisper White Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack and a few Artistry Blooms sequins.  

What are your favorite Sale-A-Bration items this year?!?  I can't wait to see what you share with us!

Happy Stamping!

Hey There, Friend

Happy Groundhog Day friends!  It looks like our furry friend Phil has predicted 6 more weeks of winter...BOO!  I don't know about you, but I am SO READY for spring!

Winter-like weather may be around for a bit longer, but Sale-a-Bration is still here and it's FULL of fun spring-time goodness! I paired up Darling Donkeys with the Paper Blooms DSP to create this adorable little card! 

I love Night of Navy and Seaside Spray together, but when you add a little pop of Calypso Coral, I love them even more!!!  Isn't the little strip of Paper Blooms DSP the cutest?  Those itty bitty flowers are just the cutest!

I added some fun texture to this card using the Pinewood Planks and Ornate Floral 3D embossing folders.  Of course I had to color this darling donkey with my Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends!!  A quick Night of Navy sentiment and a little splash of Calypso Coral and this is ready to send out to help brighten someone's dreary winter day!

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Paper Blooms DSP. Seaside Spray, Calypso Coral, Night of Navy, Whisper White

Ink ~ Night of Navy, Calypso Coral, Memento, Stampin' Blends: Smoky Slate, Petal Pink

Stamp Set ~ Darling Donkeys

Other Supplies ~ Stitched Shapes Dies, Pinewood Planks and Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folders

I hope the groundhog is a big lair and spring is just around the corner!  Our county has just opened up some spring sports for our kiddos and I do NOT want to watch soccer in the snow!

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a terrific Tuesday!

Happy Stamping!

 

Berry Best Wishes ~ HSSSC356

Hello again and happy Tuesday friends!  I have been busily crafting away the snowy days and have another fun card to share with you today.  I am a sucker for sketches and this weeks Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge did not disappoint!

The two smaller circles in the sketch made me think of the cute blueberries in the Sale-A-Bration Berry Blessings stamp set.  I stamped the blueberries in Pacific Point, then added a few Granny Apple Green leaves to create just a bit more of a background.

A sweet little blueberry branch took the place of the larger circle in the sketch and a white heat embossed sentiment on Pacific Point was the final touch.  Oh!  And I can't forget the gorgeous Berry Delightful DSP Pacific Point plaid behind all of the stamped images.  This pack of DSP has rekindled my relationship with Pacific Point for sure!

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Whisper White, Pacific Point, Berry Delightful DSP

Ink ~ VersaMark, Pacific Point, Granny Apple Green

Stamp Set ~ Berry Blessings

Other Supplies ~ Stitched Rectangles Dies

I hope you will join us in our latest Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge!  We always love to see what you create!

Happy Stamping!

Flowers and Fields of Healing Hugs

Hello stamping friends!

I don't know about you, but I have several friends and family members who have been under the weather lately and could certainly use some Healing Hugs.

I love the bright and cheerful colors in the Sale-a-Bration Flower & Field DSP!  It was perfect to pair up with the Healing Hugs stamp set!  

All of the patterns of the Flower & Field DSP are so pretty!  It pair's up beautifully with the Bumble Bee Gingham Ribbon and Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder.  The new Matte Black Dots were the prefect final touch!

If you've been following my blog for a while, you know that I love to fussy cut!  These pretty blooms were just begging to be cut out and layered with a few other patterns of DSP!  Again, I used the Ornate Floral 3D EF and Bumble Bee Gingham ribbon.

This one is my favorite!  I love the bright colors against the Basic Black background!  I threw in a few Granny Apple Green die cut circles for a little extra pop of color.

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ So Saffron, Basic Black, Granny Apple Green

Ink ~ Memento

Stamp Set ~ Healing Hugs

Other Supplies ~ Layering Circles Dies, Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder, Bumble Bee Gingham Ribbon, Label Me Fancy Punch, Matte Black Dots, 2020-2021 In Color Enamel Dots

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope you are all staying healthy, but if you're not, know that I am sending healing hugs your way!

Happy Stamping!  

 

Thank You Berry Much ~ #TGIFC298 Sketch Challenge

 Hooray!!!  It's Friday and that means it's time for an all new TGIF Challenges!!  We have a fun sketch for you to play along with this week!

I could not WAIT to pair up the adorable Sweet Strawberry bundle with the oh-so-cute Berry Blessings stamp set and Berry Delight DSP.  This week's sketch was perfect for showcasing both stamp sets and coordinating DSP.

The Strawberry Builder Punch creates the perfect little berry.  I love that the Small Bloom Punch also coordinates with the Sweet Strawberry stamp set...perfect for a sweet little strawberry bloom.  

The two step Berry Blessing stamps are so much fun.  I couldn't stop with  just the strawberry.  I had to create a blackberry...

...and a blueberry too!

Don't you just love the bright and cheerful colors in the Berry Delightful DSP?  It reminded me just how much I love Pacific Point! You can guarantee that I will be using a lot more of this!

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Whisper White, Granny Apple Green, Blackberry Bliss, Pacific Point, Berry Delightful DSP

Ink ~ Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Shaded Spruce, Flirty Flamingo, Blackberry Bliss, Pacific Point

I can't wait to send these Thank You cards out to some dear friends and family!
