Here's the second in my SAB (Sale-a-Bration) series - Polka Dot Punches. It is already a favorite with many who've used it.
Stampin' Up! is so smart - I love it when they make stamps that fit our punches! Who doesn't love things that match & make things coordinate so easily?
One savvy stamper ready the tip on the SAB catalog that if you order the 4 punches that coordinate with this stamp set, you get it FREE because your order is over $50! The Scallop Circle, 1 1/4" circle, 5 Petal punch & the new Full Heart punch are the punches that work perfectly with these stamps.
This is a card my down-line Mary designed. I thought the Joy-fold was a done perfectly here.
On a Joy-fold card, one end flips up & the next part folds down to reveal the inside with a message.
Here are the measurments to make your own:
So Saffron piece - 5 1/2 X 4 1/4" - score at 2 1/2"
Celery bottom piece - 5 1/2X 7" - score at 2 3/4"
Striped piece - 5 1/8" X 2 1/2"
She used the Eyelet border punch on the wider part of the So Saffron layer.
The Scalloped & 5 Petal stamps were inked in Versamark ink & embossed in White Embossing powder & then punched out.
The Horizontal slot punch was used on the So Saffon piece to add the SAB FREE Celery poly-twill ribbon in a knot. The striped paper is one of the FREE SAB choices good through March.
I thought this would make a perfect wedding or baby card.
I inked the Heart stamp in Versamark & embossed in Vanilla EP on Pretty in Pink & Vanilla CS & then punched them out with the Full Heart punch. Vanilla Taffeta ribbon formed the bows & 'strings' to the popped up hearts.
The eyelet border punch was used twice & also the new SU Backgrounds Texturz plate added the perfect polka dot background.
A little piercing & sponging on the pink eyelet border & it's done.
Kiwi Kiss & Pretty in Pink! Don't you love it??
This one was quickly done. I saw a similar layout in the Stampin' Success magazine that us SU Demonstrators get monthly.

This beautiful card was cased from Melissa seen here on Splitcoaststampers.
It uses the pretty color combo seen here in the Delicate Dots DSP you can get free with a $50 order during SAB.
The heart was embossed with White EP & punched out. The Eyelet border punch was used on the striped DSP. Can you tell I LOVE this punch??
The ribbon is the FREE ribbon you can get in the SAB catalog.
The 'from the heart' stamp is from the set called Holiday's & Wishes. And the Bashful CS was textured with the Big Shot & the SU background texturz plates.
