Welcome to the introductory post about this week's featured Sale A Bration reward, the Perfect pairings stamp set. Each week during the 13 weeks of Sale A Bration 2016, Stampin' Up's BIGGEST sale of the year, I'm featuring a different reward freebie stamp set or papers here at Song of My Heart Stampers. You'll be able to see multiple ideas for sets you were wondering if you'd find easy and quick to use… wonder no longer! Read about Sale A Bration here, and you'll see why we're so excited for it!
We've featured Botanicals for You (week one), Sky's the Limit (week two), and Hello (week three), so far. Let me introduce you to Perfect Pairings!
Perfect Pairings (wood-mount, cling-mount) is just that… sentiments meant to be used by pairing different combinations. I loved playing with selection and placement, not to mention the ability to easily stamp sentiments in different colors. I got my set in cling-mount so it was fairly simple to line up, which you will see on future samples this week. But here's two quick ideas for pairing the sentiment in unusual ways. On the first card, the two parts of the saying are on separate banners. On this next card, I popped up the smaller sentiment on a Word Window punch and embellished it with Candy Dots.
The font choices in this set are up to date and trendy, perfect for these washi tape cards. aren't these colors fun? You can do this technique with any washi tape collections you have. For the horizontal card, the layer measures 5.5 x 2.75 inches, and for the vertical card, it measures 4.25 x 2.75 inches. Insert the 2-inch circle punch to get the window and use your scallop circle punches to make a cute flowers from coordinating scraps. Easy!
Pop back in all this week to see more fun ideas for the Perfect Pairing stamp set, or really any sentiment-only stamp set. These are pretty timeless!
