Watercolor Wash Hello

Sale-A-Bration is well under way...there is still over a month left! This year Stampin' Up! is retiring a couple of Sale-A-Bration freebies early and they will only be available through TODAY (February 15th), but this means they're also bringing in some new stuff! Starting February 16th there will be a few more options for you to choose from!

I thought I would sneak in one more card using the Sale-A-Bration set called Hello. This is one of the products that will be retiring early, so if you can't live without this set be sure to put your $50 order in TODAY to get it as your freebie! (HERE are some other cards I made with this set.)

This card was inspired by the talented Dena Rekow. We had our annual Sale-A-Bration team meeting last Wednesday and I wanted to bring a watercoloring technique to share. The size of this card is a note card size, but it works perfectly with the "hello" sentiment. I used emboss resist with some watercoloring and specifically used watercolor paper, which makes for such a beautiful look when paired with ink and aquapainters. Just a simple card, but a fun one for a friend to get in the mail! The flower comes from the Botanical Builder Framelits, which I popped up on a Dimensional and added a rhinestone to the center.

Colors used: Bermuda Bay, Old Olive, Pool Party

I specifically wanted to showcase the Hello stamp set as this particular set will only be available to earn for free through February 15th. I made a sample for a boy and a girl, so each of the stampers will get to choose which they'd like to make!

Sale-A-Bration Hello!

Have you gotten some Sale-A-Bration freebies yet? Maybe you've only been able to browse the brochure...do you have a favorite? There are so many awesome Sale-A-Bration products to choose from this time around and with a $50 purchase you get to choose one just for you! Visit my online store to start shopping ~ heidiboos.stampinup.net.

I have a few sample cards using one of the Sale-A-Bration sets called Hello. Right now this is a favorite of mine from the brochure. There are a few products in this year's Sale-A-Bration brochure that are only available through February 15th...this set is one of them, so don't wait too long to earn this set!

I paired this Sale-A-Bration stamp set with some of the Cherry on Top products (from the 2015-2016 Annual Catalog). I thought it would be fun to use the exact same layout and colors, but just add a few different accents and change up who the card is intended for. I used this card design for a card night I held last night, so it's always good to show many variations.
