New Occasions & Sale-A-Bration Sneak Peek Hop

December 19, 2015 by Linda

6a0133ecd01a09970b01bb08a0dafb970d-pi

 

 

Welcome to the Stamp It Group Blog Hop!!!!  We are previewing items from the new Occasions and Sale-a-Bration Catalogs!!!

 

I’m so excited to show you my preview.  I chose to use two stamp sets from the Sale-a-Bration catalog.   I LOVE this little bird!!  Isn’t he the cutest!    He’s part of the Honeycomb Happiness stamp set.

 

6a0133ecd01a09970b01b8d1862807970c-450wi

 

I stamped him in StazOn Jet Black and the watercolored him on Shimmery White Paper.  I’ve been with Stampin’ Up! for almost 6 years, and I only found out that you could watercolor on Shimmery White Card Stock about a year ago and it’s now my goto watercolor paper for paper crafts.  I colored the bird with Pool Party, Pumpkin Pie, Early Espresso and Smoky Slate for shadow using the Aqua Painter.

6a0133ecd01a09970b01b7c7fc54f5970b-pi

 

The Happy Birthday Greeting comes from the Perfect Pairings stamp set from Sale-a-bration.  I stamped it in Calypso Coral.

6a0133ecd01a09970b01bb08a0db3e970d-450wi

 

The DSP (designer series paper) is Birthday Bouquet from the Occasions Catalog.

6a0133ecd01a09970b01bb08a0db56970d-pi

 

 

Just like last month we are having a give-away!  Just leave me a comment, add the hashtag #stampitcontest, thru Jan 3rd, and we will pick a winner on Jan 4th.  You can enter 1 time on each blog in the hop!!

 

6a0133ecd01a09970b01bb089c392c970d-pi

 

 

I hope you enjoyed my blog hop entry and stop back again.

Now you can head to the next blog on the hop, Gianna Sardella – just hit the next button.  If your going rouge and doing the blog hop backward, you’ll be headed off to Elizabeth Thatcher!!
