Special Day Card with Dots Dots Dots and Gems
Feb 26, 2024
Stampin' Up! petal pink card with dots in background and dots and gems on flowers and outlining the sentiment rectangle

Dots and gems always make me happy! And as far as gems go, I tend to use 3 per card as I hoard them while still applying the rule of thumb to have odd #s of design elements on your project. But this time I used 7 (gasp!!)! And I felt justified because I earned them for FREE as part of Sale-a-Bration 2024, running only through 2/29/24!

Sale-a-Bration is the annual Stampin’ Up! event held in January and February where you can earn FREE product with orders over $50. It’s a great time to stock up on basic supplies and/or treat yourself to something new! You can see so many cards that I have made with Sale-a-Bration items these past months by scrolling backwards on my blog posts or visiting this one and this one. Whatever you choose, it’s a great deal! (And in case you’re interested, it’s a great time to join my Jersey Stampers team and get excellent perks! Check it out here).

Let’s get back to the card featured here. I used a variety of products besides the Opaque Faceted Gems. The Basics Embossing Dots folder is one of 3 that come in a package and the dots make a perfect backdrop to flowers (IMO). The Everyday Details sentiment and coordinating die make the perfect focal point for a wedding, shower, or any special occasion. And punching simple flowers and branches with the Petal Park Builder Punch and the Bough Punch made it easy to add lots of white, Petal Pink and vellum accents.

Below are the measurements and supplies for the card. Note that in March, my monthly Bundle Class will be using the Everyday Details bundle – purchase the bundle by 2/29 (and get FREE SAB item!) and get this class for FREE!

I know that Pretty in Pink, or any pink, is unusual for a holiday or Christmas card, but every year I seem to find myself using it at least once! This time, I saw a card from Mary Fish which used Pretty in Pink DSP along with the ice skates from the Sophisticated Sled...
