Using Stampin'Up! Watercolor Melon FREE Sale-a-bration Stamp Set
January 25, 2024
Today we're creating a cute fun card Using Stampin'Up! Watercolor Metlon FREE Sale-a-bration Stamp Set. During January - February when you place an order for $50 (or $100) you can select a free item from the SAB Brochure. One of these freebies is the Watercolor Melon stamp set..
Here's today's card with this set...
Here's a bit closer look...
Can you just taste that sweet melon as you bite into that slice...juice running down your chin & spitting out the seeds? Ahh, summertime...it's not toooo far away so let's get those summer cards ready as we shiver in our stamping space right now!! We'll dream of warmer days.
The really "sweet" deal with this stamp set is that the melon is punchable with the Modern Oval punch. And when you position the side melon view--you can punch that out too!
We began the card using strips of embossed cardstock in multiple greens that pep up the background from just plain white.
The melon and slice are stamped with Garden Green and Sweet Sorbet inks. The leaf is stamped with Granny Apple Green which coordinates with the Granny & Lemon Lime in the background.
The super cute spiral border at the top is die cut using a die in the Gorgeously Made die set... cute, simple & relaxed...just like summer should be.
I'll give you step by step directions for today's project below followed by the supply list.
Stop by next Tuesday to see another cutie with this set!
