Welcome to the Stampin’ Addict’s Sale-a-Bration Blog Hop! I am super excited to be featuring a Sale-a-Bration exclusive stamp set called Sprinkled Expressions. You may have arrived here from Tanya’s Blog, Tinkerin’ in Ink (Aren’t her projects spectacular?!) If you are just starting here, that’s fine too. All of the blogs link in a circle, so you can start wherever you like, and make your way around.
Sprinkled Expressions is a set of six stamps that work together in three pairs. I have a project for each of these pairs, so you’ll see what I mean. For your Sale-a-Bration freebie, you have the choice of either Wood Mount or Clear Mount. My first project is a simple card that can work as a Valentine or anytime someone needs a little extra love.
Stamps: Sprinkled Expressions
Ink: Poppy Parade, Soft Suede
Paper: Poppy Parade, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Everyday Enchantment
Other: Poppy Parade Poly Ribbon
As soon as I saw the star stamp in this set, I knew I wanted to heat emboss it. I used gold embossing powder on black because it matched the amazing Mocha Morning Specialty Designer Series Paper. This could be a great graduation card!
Stamps: Sprinkled Expressions
Ink: VersaMark
Paper: Sahara Sand, Basic Black, Brushed Gold, Mocha Morning Specialty Designer Series Paper
Other: Gold Embossing Powder, Adorning Accents Edgelit Die, Adorning Accents Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Scallop Square Duo Die
My final project is a Telescoping Card. You can find tutorials for these all over. People made some great snowmen out of these, and I think they work just as well for flowers, too. This is what the card looks like all closed up:
And here is what it looks like when you open it out:
Stamps: Sprinkled Expressions
Ink: Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeade
Paper: Poppy Parade, Lucky Limeade, Calypso Coral, Very Vanilla, Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper
Other: Everyday Enchantment Brads, 1 3/4″ Circle Punch, 2 3/8″ Scallop Punch, 3 1/2″ Circle Die, Scallop Circle #2 Die, Clear Circle Die, Scallop Circle Die, Big Shot
Now that you have seen these, you can head on over to Twila’s Blog where she is also featuring Sprinkled Expressions. Wait until you see her super cute projects!

Beautiful cards, Yapha! Love them all, my favorite is the grad card. I love all the the different textures on the card.
Super!!! I like how you showed the images together and apart. The Mocha Morning card is way cool– I really like the combo of scallops with the lined paper as well as the various textures. It all ties together so nicely!
