Friends of SUBA January Blog Hop – Sale-A-Bration
Theme – Sale-A-Bration
Happy New Year and welcome to our first blog hop of 2019. I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday Season! I had a fairly quiet one, as our daughter is now 13 it seems to get quieter each year.
If this is your first visit to my blog you may be wondering what SUBA is and stands for. SUBA – ‘Simply Unique Business Angels’, technology training for entrepreneurs. Friends of SUBA is a group of SU demonstrators who attending a training weekend, held by SUBA, and formed a blog hop group. We look to inspire you with our creations.
Whether you have hopped over from Gina – Emerald Kreations or joined straight with me, I am so glad you could join us! To welcome in 2019 we have chosen ‘Sale-A-Bration’ for our theme. Many of you may know all about it, but for those that do not I will tell you. FREE products, yes I did say FREE! For every £45 order place you get to choose and item from a selection of products for FREE. Now is a great time to shop, as there is also the new spring/summer catalogue.
Hello Cupcake
I adore this set! The fact that it was FREE just makes it even better, plus who doesn’t love a cupcake. Being a photopolymer set makes lining up the images so easy. I have designed numerous cards with this stamp set and can see many more coming soon.
For this card create an A6 card base, using ‘Bermuda Bay’ cardstock and layer with a 14.5cm x 10cm piece of ‘Whisper White’. Emboss a 14.5cm x 3cm piece of ‘Lemon Lime Twist’ cardstock, using the new ‘Dot to Dot Textured Impressions Embossing Folder’, adhere this flat to the front layer. Punch out a 2″ circle of ‘Bermuda Bay’ cardstock and adhere to your card, over the ‘Lemon Lime Twist’ strip, using ‘Dimensionals’. Onto a piece of ‘Whisper White’ cardstock stamp your cupcake, using ‘Soft Suede’ ink for the base and ‘Lemon Lime Twist’ for the frosting. There are two stamps for this, the first is a small stamp that lines up with the top of the cupcake case/base and the second is the large frosting. Add a heart using ‘Lovely Lipstick’ ink and fussy cut out your image. Adhere this flat onto your ‘Bermuda Bay’ circle. Stamp your sentiment using ‘Bermuda Bay’ ink and finish off with a few ‘Lemon Lime Twist’ sequins from the ‘Gingham Gala Adhesive-backed Sequins’.
Note cards using #simplestamping. These are quick to make and make a great card to send for many occasions.
More #simplestamping using a layer of the ‘Grapefruit Grove & Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets’, also available FREE during Sale-A-Bration.
A full list of products used for my first project is available at the bottom of the page.
I hope you found some inspiration here and I am sure that as you hop along you will find much more! A list of all participants can be found below or click on the next button to join Caro – Craft with Caro.
