Be Inspired Design Team Blog Hop - Sale-A-Bration

Hi everyone! Welcome to the Be Inspired Design Team Blog Hop! You are currently visiting Carolynn Sander in Calgary, Alberta, Canada! If you have been hopping along, you most likely arrived here via the wonderfully talented Maike BeimlerI have a feeling that she left you feeling pretty inspired today!




The theme for today is Sale-A-Bration! Sale-A-Bration is by far my most crafty time of year!💖 After all, who doesn't love free stamps & all? Today's card features one of my most beloved Sale-A-Bration sets for 2019! The Hello Cupcake Stamp Set!



This set is perfect for creating those much needed birthday cards for the year! And if you are in Canada (or if you aren't), it is seriously so cold here right now! Being snowed in makes for the perfect excuse to craft your day away! I plan on making a few more cards like this, but in different colours so that I always have a birthday card on hand this year! I can't wait to see what this cupcake looks like when whipped up with a few different frostings!


Well I won't keep you too long today, I hope you enjoyed today's project! For a complete list of the Stampin' Up! products that I used, check out the supply list below. As well if you have questions or comments I love to hear them! Feel free to leave a comment below!  Up next in today's blog hop is the infamous Brian King! I can't wait to see what he has to share with us today!

Thanks again! If you have any questions in regards to today's projects feel free to contact me! As well, if you are in Canada and you are interested in purchasing Stampin' Up! products, I would love to have you visit my Stampin' Up! online shop! Just click on the shop button below if you wish!

Stampin' Up! Hello Cupcake Photopolymer Stamp Set - #TGIFC199

Hi everyone! My name is Carolynn Sander. I am a Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The TGIF Team is at it again with a fun challenge! Come on over to the TGIF Challenges site and have fun creating with us! We would love to see how Sale-A-Bration inspires you!

For today's project I decided to challenge myself to keep it simple with the use of just stamps, ink, and paper! #simplestamping

  
This card uses one of my fave stamp sets from the Stampin' Up! 2019 Occasions Catalogue, as well as the "Celebrate Your Day" sentiment stamp from the Hello Cupcake Photopolymer Stamp Set which is part of the 2019 Sale-A-Bration product line. I simply stamped my images on Thick Whisper White Cardstock using Momento Black Ink. I then coloured them in with a few of my favourite Stampin' Blends and voila! 



I think I will be making a few more of these simple cards for all of the kid birthdays that we have coming up this year! I never have enough of those! What do you think? 

Thank you so much for visiting today! I hope that you leave here feeling a wee bit inspired. Remember to stop by the TGIF Challenges site to join in the fun this week! Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. As well, if you are from Canada check out my online 24/7 Stampin' Up! supply shop below! 

Cheers & Happy Stamping!

What do you think of the new Stampin' Up! Sweetest Thing Photopolymer Bundle? Is it not adorbs! I couldn't wait to play with it! And this "Sweet Wishes" card was the result of my creative shenanigans!   


The sentiment on today's card was actually taken from another sweet stamp set that you can earn for free as part of the Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration promotion! Check out all of the images that are part of the  Hello Cupcake Photopolymer Stamp Set below! As I mentioned... it's pretty sweet!
