Hi! I’m Sara Levin theartfulinker an independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrator in the US. Welcome to my blog and today’s Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Special Moments. Today the Stamping Sunday design team are sharing some of our favorite January February 2022 Sale-a-Bration products and ideas! I’ve got two cards using In the Moment and Special Moments along with a video for you.

Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Special Moments
Special Moments Stamp Set

The Special Moments stamp set is one of the FREE products available during the January February 2022 Sale-a-Bration. I love a good sentiment set…and this is one. It has a really good variety of sentiments. And, the words are in a font that works well for lots of occasions and age groups.
In the Moment Special Moments Card 1

On this first card, I’ve paired Special Moments with an image from In the Moment. And combined them all with warm, soothing tones.
A little bit of coloring with Stampin’ Blends and a piece of In Color Designer Paper and your card is practically finished. This one is pretty quick and easy!

The gal looking out the window could be taking it easy or maybe spending some time pondering life. The “hang in there” sentiment works well with her.
This is a perfect card for sending to someone going through a rough patch.
In the Moment Special Moments Card 2

For my second card, I wanted to change the feel to something brighter and more upbeat. The ink blending ombre does that in spades!
Again, I used one of the great images from In the Moment.

And by combining that In the Moment image with a sentiment from Special Moments, I’ve extended the use of that set. Special Moments broadens the number of reasons or occasions that you can send a card using the images from In the Moment. I call that win!

I love both of your cards, Sara. Especially the ombre ink blending in the second card.
Thanks, Vicki! I think I need to try some other color combos.
‘what a fabulous pairing. I particularly love your first card … so thought provoking and I love your use of the Brickwork too x
Thanks, Mikaela! I love that the images in In the Moment are open to interpretation — makes pairing them with several of the sentiments from Special Moments really easy.
Beautiful cards, Sara! Love the colors you used on the ombre background. So cheerful! Gorgeous way to showcase both stamp sets.
Thanks, Anne Marie! I’m sure I’ll be pairing Special Moments with lots of stamp sets.
Sara, your ink blending ombre is gorgeous, and a perfect background for the stamp set. And, great showing of the Special Moments Stamp Set!
Thanks, Su! Those bright colors just make me happy.
Fantastic cards Sara!!! I’m in love with that sentiment set and you’ve used it so perfectly.
Thanks, Tami! Me too — the sentiment set rocks!
Both lovely cards Sara .. I agree that this sentiment set is a must have! So lovely to see a sentiment set in the Sale-A-Bration offering. xx
