I created this card using the Berry Blessings stamp set and matching DSP. Both are available for free right now (Jan. 2021) during Sale-A-Bration. To see how this lovely card was created watch the YouTube video.

The Well Suited Suite from Stampin’ Up creates the perfect masculine card. The video below shows how I made the suit card. It is perfect for any occasion: Father’s Day, birthday, new job, promotion, anniversary, any occasion in which he will wear a suit.

Sale-A-Bration 2021 is Here!

This post is about 2 stamp sets that are currently available for free during Stampin’ Up’s Sale-A-Bration. The stamp sets are Berry Blessings and A Touch Of Ink. I am highlighting these 2 sets as they both have dual stamps. I try them out and see how well the dual stamps work.

Another card using the Whale Of A Time DSP.
Start with a card base of Whisper White, 5.5″ x 8.5″ scored at 4.25″.
Use the DSP cut to 5.25″ x 4″.
Using more DSP cut out 3 rectangles using the Stitched Rectangle Dies.
Using Pacific Point ink stamp the sentiment onto Whisper White paper.
Use the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch to create the label.
Assemble the card.

Another card letting the Whale Of A Time DSP shine.
The card base is Pacific Point and the matte is Blackberry Bliss.
Using Pacific Point ink I stamped the turtle on the background of the card base.
Then apply the matte and DSP.
The matte is 4.25″ x 3.5″. The DSP is 4.25″ x 3.25″.
The sentiment is stamped on Whisper White using Pacific Point ink.

The inside is Whisper White with a turtle stamped in Pacific Point ink.

This card was created with the Whale Done stamp set.
The card base is Pretty Peacock, the matte is Whisper White and the DSP is Whale Of A Time.
Using the Whale Done stamp set I stamped the turtle, the schools of fish and the sentiment.

The inside of the card is Whisper White with a turtle and a school of fish stamped on it.

The card is easy to make and looks beautiful thanks to the lovely DSP.

I decided to try out the new stamp set “Whale Done”. The DSP that comes with it is beautiful. I hate to cut it.

This card is very easy to make.
Start with a card base of Misty Moonlight 5.5″ x 8.5″, scored at 4.25″.
Cut a piece of Seaside Spray 5.25″ x 4″ and cut a piece of DSP 5″ x 3.75″.

Use the jellyfish from the Whale Done stamp set. With Misty Moonlight ink stamp the jellyfish a couple of times on the DSP.
Then assemble the card.

From the Best Year stamp set use the Happy Birthday To You stamp. I used Misty Moonlight ink on Seaside Spray paper. Then I used the Lovely Labels Pick A Punch to create the label.

Attach the label to the front of the card.

The inside of the card is a piece of Seaside Spray 5.25″ x 4 with a jellyfish stamped in the corner with Misty Moonlight.

Here are the first cards I made with some of the products from my pre-order. I wanted to use each of the 4 different flowers on the stamp set “Jar of Flowers”. The following video is a walk through of creating them.
