Posted on February 12, 2024February 5, 2024 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Celebrate Sale-a-Bration Blog Hop where we are showcasing, you’ve guessed it…….. Sale-a-Bration product. I am showcasing the gorgeous Softly Stippled dsp and have used it to make a pretty card made for my niece who became engaged over Christmas.

Colours used in this card are:

To recreate the engagement card, you will need:

Softly Stippled dsp – 12” by 5¼”
Basic White card 5⅛” by 3⅞”
Softly Stippled dsp – 5” by 3⅝”
Scrap Basic White & Pool Party card

On the long side I scored the Softly Stippled dsp at 2”, 4” 8” and 10”. On the short side I marked at 2” down on both sides and using a trimmer, cut from the 2” mark to the second score line – 4” and 8”.

A pretty fun fold card made to celebrate an engagement using the gorgeous Softly Stippled dsp, a Sale-a-Bration 2024 choice from Stampin' Up!

Taking the 2 off cut pieces, I trimmed the point off at the 2” score line and glued the pieces to the front panels with the co-ordinating pattern uppermost. I love that you see both sides of this pretty dsp.

The sentiment, from the Stippled Rose stamp set, was stamped in Pretty Peacock ink onto scrap Basic White card. I die cut the sentiment using the Nested Essentials Dies. I cut 2 more labels from scrap Pool Party card, I cut one of these in half across the middle and glued the 2 halfs to the back of the stamped label with a little peeking out at the top and the bottom. The remaining Pool Party label was glued to the back of the label and the whole piece was glued to the left side of the card front.

From scrap Basic White card, I die cut 2 circles using the Everyday Details Dies. On the circle I stamped the sentiment from the Color & Contour stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink.

The single rose was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the circle. I coloured the rose in using Pool Party and Wild Wheat Blends Pens. The circle was the glued to the inside panel, roughly in the centre but not visible when the card was closed.

The panel of Pool Party card was adhered to the back of the central dsp panel. This gives the card more stability. The 5” by 3⅝” piece of Softly Stippled dsp was glued to the remaining piece of Basic White card. The panel was then gled to the back of the Pool Party layer.

To recreate the moody mauve daisies card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Pebbled Path card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 5” by 3 ¼”
Scrap Moody Mauve card

Using Pebbled Path ink I randomly stamped the largest daisy flower all over the small panel of Basic White card.

I added the flower centre using 2^nd generation Moody Mauve ink. The stamped panel was then glued, using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive, to the Pebbled Path layer.

The same glue was used to add the piece to the Thick Basic White card front.

The sentiment was stamped in Pebbled Path ink onto a scrap of Moody Mauve which was then added to the card front on Dimensionals.

A trio of 2023 – 2025 In Color Dots completed the card.
