Mix-n-Match Stampin’ Up Sale-a-bration
Hello Everyone – I love playing with free product and today’s card is a Mix-n-Match Stampin’ Up Sale-a-bration idea.
How many of you got the free cards & envelopes from Sale-a-bration? I got several sets and thought it would be fun to use it with some other products. I opted to use the Color & Contour stamp set and coordinating dies to show how versatile these cards are.
This stamp set is perfect for these cards and the open image stem mimics the background of the card bases.
I want to use the flower stem in the set as it matched the open image on the card base. I did not want to color the image so I had to come up with another way to add some color. I played around with an idea and came up with this one. I stamped the image using a second generation of Basic Gray. That gave me enough of an outline to be able to see it. I then used my markers to trace the stamped image so I got an open image in bold lines.
The envelope is already decorated using an image from the card base. I used the same idea of a bold outline for the inside of the card.
Want another idea using this same image? Check out this card that uses it with the 2022 – 2024 In Colors. The coordinating dies have some great scallop dies like the one I used on this card.
I hope the way I colored my image today will inspire you to give this technique a try. It is really fun and easy and I love how it extends the use of your supplies.
