Stamping Stray Ducklings – Sale-A-Bration 2024!

Welcome to our January 2024 Blog Waddle! Wow, the new year already and it is the BEST time of the year with Stampin’ Up!! We are featuring projects created from the Sale-A-Bration flyer! I decided to let the Softly Stippled DSP (#162975) do most of the work for this card! This fabulous DSP is free with a $50 product purchase. I also used the Softly Sophisticated Bundle (#162947) and it is free with a $100 purchase. Here is a closeup of my card!

My card base is Calypso Coral with a layer of Pebbled Path. Next I used 3 pieces of the Softly Stippled DSP for the top panel, bottom panel and the strip covering where they meet. I ran the 2 panels through the Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder, part of the SAB Bundle for a little extra texture. I stamped the sentiment from the Softly Sophisticated stop set in Calypso Coral and the edge of the flowers in Pebbled Path then punched it out with Heartfelt Hexagon Punch (#162888). I added some Rustic Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots (#159082) and a double bow from Linen Thread (#104199).

Please hop around and leave a comment to let us know what you think of our cards!
