Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - Stamp FREE

Welcome to the February 2025 Edition of the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop! You'll see projects in our hop from Stampin' Up! demonstrators around the world--I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Note: I can only sell to customers in the US, so any prices mentioned are in USD)

We generally hop the first Friday of each month, and our theme for today is Stamp Free! My project today features the Happiest Day Stamp Set, which I chose as a FREE item with my Stampin' Rewards. Scroll down to see how you can earn even MORE stamps (and other select products) for FREE during Sale-a-Bration!!!
{you can find all Product Purchase Links below the Blog Roll near the bottom of the post}


Through the end of February 2025, you can earn stamps, or other select Stampin' Up! product, for FREE during Sale-a-Bration! (View or Download PDF Brochure HERE)
 
There are 3 ways you can cash in on the goodies:

1) For every $60 in product you SPEND on any single retail order, you can choose one FREE Level 1 Sale-a-Bration item (or once you hit $120, you can choose from Level 2, as well). 
2) When you HOST (you can gather orders or just place your own) and your retail order total reaches $300, you earn an EXTRA $30 in Stampin' Rewards to buy whatever product you want.
3) And when you JOIN Stampin' Up! by ordering the Starter Kit (only $99, no shipping) you can choose up to $125 in product, and ALSO take advantage of one of the two offers below...

OPTION #1 - Your choice of TWO Stampin' Write Marker assortments of 10 markers each (Brights, Neutrals, Regals, Subtles), PLUS the Handmade Designs stamp set exclusively designed to work with markers. This option is an additional $91 Value.

OPTION #2 - Your choice of an additional $30 in products on your Starter Kit order.
 
(Note: the Starter Kit is not considered a retail order, so the Spend and Host offers do not apply. However, as soon as you JOIN Stampin' Up! you will be able to get at least 20% off your orders, and any orders you place during Sale-a-Bration can qualify for the Spend and Host offers!)

PRO TIP: if you find at least $99 in product you want to buy, order the Starter Kit and you will get to choose up to $125 in product for that same $99, PLUS there's NO SHIPPING on a Starter Kit Order. And, during Sale-a-Bration you can choose your option to get even MORE VALUE in your Starter Kit Order!!!

 Back to my project for today. As I mentioned above, I used the Happiest Day Stamp Set. I actually made the card for the Craft Roulette #252 Challenge - which is a great way to exercise your creativity! A new challenge streams live every Friday. Anyway, my layout was inspired by the sample card for the With You In Mind Stamp Set you see below. I didn't even realize until I posted this picture that I came close to using the very same colors! I was working from memory. One of the cool things about a card like this, is if you can cut all 3 colors of card stock at the same angle at the same time, you can make 3 cards with the order of the colors swapped around on each one.


Stampin' Supplies: Happiest Day Stamp Set, Basic White Cardstock, Fresh Freesia Cardstock, Pretty in Pink Cardstock and Ink Pad, Daffodil Delight Cardstock & Ink Pad, Peach Pie Cardstock & Ink Pad, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad, Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned Adhesive-Backed Dots, Pretty in Pink 3/8" Bordered Ribbon, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Mini Stampin' Dimensionals, Bone Folder, Paper Snips, Paper Trimmer, Simply Shammy (for cleaning photopolymer stamps), and Grid Paper.

Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - Coming Soon!

Welcome to the January 2025 Edition of the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop! You'll see projects in our hop from Stampin' Up! demonstrators around the world--I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Note: I can only sell to customers in the US, so any prices mentioned are in USD)

We generally hop the first Friday of each month, and our theme for today is Coming Soon! My project today is for Valentine's Day, since that is coming soon. I featured the Mini Pocket Envelope Die because it was on the Last Chance Products section of my store...but it appears to be sold out now! The Bee My Valentine Stamp Set and coordinating Bee Builder Punch are still available, though.
{you can find all Product Purchase Links below the Blog Roll near the bottom of the post}


The Mini Pocket Envelope Die being sold out is a big reason you will want to go check out the products on the Last Chance Products section of my store as soon as you can. Just a heads up, my Stampin' Up! store no longer has a "Clearance Rack", and this is because the Last Chance Products section is going to stay up year round. The retiring products will be placed in that section of the store, and will be there ONLY while supplies last. Some of the products are up to 60% off, and while BUNDLES will still be available at a 10% discount while all bundle items are still available, you may want to check the Last Chance Products section to see if one or both individual items may have a greater discount when purchased individually.


 Back to my project for today. I created a box using the Mini Pocket Envelope Die, and I decorated it with the Iconic Celebrations 6"x6" Designer Series Paper. There are 4 sheets of patterned paper in this package that have the hearts on one side. There are clinking champagne glasses on the other side, and that's why I made the box with Cherry Cobbler Cardstock. I wanted to adhere the paper to the cardstock so the back design didn't show. I didn't put anything in the box because I haven't gone shopping for any Valentine's Day treats yet this year. The box is 1-1/2" deep, and 2-3/8" wide. The front of the box is shorter, at about 3" high, and the back is about 4" tall at the peak.

Stampin' Supplies: Bee My Valentine stamp set and Bee Builder Punch, Pretty in Pink Cardstock, Cherry Cobbler Cardstock & Ink Pad, Iconic Celebrations 6"x6" Designer Series Paper, Mini Pocket Envelope Dies (sold out), Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Mini Stampin' Dimensionals, Bone Folder, Paper Snips, Paper Trimmer, Simply Shammy (for cleaning photopolymer stamps), and Grid Paper. *You will need a die-cutting machine, like the Stampin' Cut & Emboss, to use the dies.
