I'm sharing another project I've made using the free sale-a-bration items I earned by placing a qualifying order. By mashing up 2 sale-a-bration papera - the Rings of Love designer series paper (DSP) and the Silver & Gold DSP - with the twisted ribbon technique, I created this pretty card. I hope this inspires your creativity!

I was inspired by Sally Poole's tutorial for the twisted ribbon technique. Both the Rings of Love and Silver & Gold DSPs are Sale-a-bration items.

I'm sharing another project I've made using the free sale-a-bration items I earned by placing a qualifying order. By mashing up 2 sale-a-bration products - Hippest Hippos stamp set and the Silver & Gold designer series paper (DSP) - I created this super cute card. I hope this inspires your creativity!
I stamped the hippo image with Tuxedo Black Memento ink then colored it with several Stampin' Blends (alcohol markers). Both the Sweet Sorbet and Silver & Gold DSPs coordinated well with stamped image. Both the stamp set and the Silver & Gold DSP are Sale-a-bration items.

My worldwide demonstrator friends and I are brewing up a fabulous virtual retreat using Zoom calls to celebrate World Card Making Day! While World Card Making Day falls on Saturday, October 1, 2022, due to time zone shenanigans this event actually spans Friday night and Saturday morning in the USA market. The retreat includes 3 Zoom calls for live stamping demonstrations, each call brings 6 greeting card making demonstrations, so you will have created 18 cards after attending the retreat!
Approximately 2 weeks prior to the event, a pdf idea file with measurements and supply lists for each project will be provided so you can gather your supplies, cut your cardstock and be ready to craft along with me and my demo friends. If you miss the Zoom calls, YouTube assembly links will be provided shortly after the event. You will have the pdf idea file with project photos to help you with assembly as well.
Anyone is welcome to join us, stamping customers, your friends, fellow demonstrators, team members and newbies, too! Use the Google form link below to register; I'll contact you to make payment arrangements.
World Card Making Day 2022 Registration Registration for World Card Making Day includes:
3 Zoom calls over September 30th and October 1st
pdf file with all the measurements and supply lists for the demonstrated projects 2 weeks prior to the retreat
a pillow gift, if registration payment is received by September 22nd
YouTube assembly videos (links available immediately after the event)
After I receive your registration, I’ll snail mail your pillow gift (remember, registration must be received by September 22nd to receive the pillow gift!). Then be watching for the pdf file in your email in-box after August 29th so you can order supplies if needed and prep your cardstock. Thanks for joining us and looking forward to stamping with you then!
Stamping is fun!
Terri
P.S. Zoom session times are Friday, September 30th, 8-9:30pm and Saturday, 8-9:30am and 10am-11:30am EDT. If you can’t make the Zoom calls, YouTube assembly links will be provided after the event is over. So you can still craft along with us if the Zoom call times don’t work for you.
Welcome to our monthly Paper Crafting Blog Hop! The theme of the hop this month is congratulations.
This month, each hop participant, talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world, has created an inspiring project to send a congratulations wish. You may have arrived from Tracy Held's blog. What a great design!
I love the Ring of Love designer series paper (DSP). I started with a piece with images of houses on it. My plan was to make a new house congratulations card. But a funny thing happened - the reverse side caught my attention and I went in a totally different direction. Has that ever happened to you?
Rings of Love DSP #159939 Sale-a-bration item!
During Sale-a-bration with a $50 order you qualify for a free Sale-a-bration item and you could pick the Rings of Love DSP.
I ended up with this all-occasion congratulations card. The pattern was so striking it needed very little embellishment. Do you agree? Leave me a comment sharing your thoughts. Thank you!
I layered the Congratulations sentiment from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set on an Evening Evergreen cardstock base punched with the Double Oval Punch; I daubed a bit of Night of Navy ink around the edges of the punched sentiment before adhering Soft Succulent Shimmer ribbon to the card front.
Thank you for hopping around the world with us. Keep hopping to see even more inspiring congratulations cards! Click on the Next Blog image below to Maureen Rauchfuss' blog.

I'll be sharing the cards I've made by going "off-road" with a kit. I hope these alternative cards inspire your creativity, too!
I'm starting with the July 2022 Sending Good Thoughts kit.
I made 2 alternative cards this month. The first card sticks with the nautical theme of the kit with a ship inside of a bottle. I used a couple of different techniques on this card - masking, daubing ink, blender pen and a couple of others. Yes, I might have gone way off-road!!!
The second card is much simpler. My idea was a graduation-themed card. I added a pattern from the Rings of Love designer series paper (DSP) that is in the Sale-a-bration flyer. Please a minimum $50 through the end of August and qualify for a free item in the flyer - inlcuding the Rings of Love DSP pack.

Wonderful World stamp set with Silver & Gold DSP- Free during sale-a-bration!
Although this card has little stamping it shows the power of bringing ink and paper together.
