It’ s all about Sale a Bration
Welcome to the January New at SU blog hop, where a group of Stampin’ Up!® demonstrator’s around the world are overjoyed to share projects inspiring you to create.
This month is the first month of Sale-a-Bration and of course it is the January theme. Each of us will present a project using Sale a Bration products.
My project today is featuring Designer Series Paper you can choose for a 60$ CAD. Now this paper coordinates with the Daffodil Daydream bundle, but I don’t have that bundle….yet. So I want to show you how to use the paper even if you don’t have the coordinating set. You will also see I am using a stamp set from the Sale a Bration brochure – “Special Moments”. I love this set as it is full of beautiful sentiments. It is available to choose from for free with a 120$ CAD order. Let’s get started.
You know I love the slimline cards. They are my fav. The base starts with an 8-1/2 x 7 piece of cardstock and is folded at 3-1/2 on the 7” side. Most slimline cards I see are landscape, but I chose portrait, just because.
The first layer is a piece of Evening Evergreen about 1/8” smaller all around. The focal point here is the “floating” rectangles. I used 6 one-inch strips and glued them evenly on a piece of 2-3/4 x 7-1/2 window sheet.
I then added adhesive foam strips to the back and adhered it to a piece of embossed Pale Papaya cardstock.
Since I noticed a Daisy in the paper, I stamped and cut two medium daisies with the medium daisy punch. Of course, I had to have ribbon on my card, so I put the Evening Evergreen behind the daisy.
The Happy Birthday is all on one line in the Special Moments Stamp set, but I wanted it to be on two circles. So, I used the Polished Pink Stampin’ Marker and inked Happy on one circle and Birthday on the other circle. I love the gradient look! Easy Peasy. I didn’t have to make my envelope because….drum roll please… we now have ready made envelopes for Slimline cards in the January-June 2022 catalogue!

Beautifully designed slimline card, Jeannette! That DSP is perfect for it! I really love the font of the Birthday Greeting, don’t you?
Thank you
Don’t know why I haven’t made a slimline card yet but this is a terrific way to use up paper pieces!
Thank you
Good idea to create floating rectangles and pull in a different flower from the Designer Series Paper to give us options!
Thanks
Such a nice way to use this DSP! Lovely card!
Thank you!
I love the way you used so many different designs of the DSP to create your card. I really need to try making some slimline cards.
