There are only two days left in Sale-A-Bration. Today and tomorrow and it will be over for this year. My project today has two of the SAB items included. There is a peek at an upcoming item paired with my new favorite layering Dies. Woohoo!!
There is an inside view as well. I am bad about creating cards and leaving the inside blank. But this one had the perfect pairing included in the stamp set.
STAMPS
This extremely fun stamp set is called Arched Wishes. It pairs with the Everyday Arches stamp set and Bundle. But this one is an add on. Right now it is a preorder for demonstrators. However it goes live the beginning of March in the OnlineExclusives. I have mentioned all of the fabulous stamps and bundles that are new this coming month! Please check them out.
The stamps used on this project are all included in the Arched Wishes stamp set. You know I love one set cards and this one is awesome. There are no matching Dies, so the cupcake is fussy cut. Most of it is straight lines, so it is really easy to do. It is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then colored using Melon Mambo and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. The candle is Pumpkin Pie with the flame highlighted with Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends.
The inside sentiment and balloon are also in the set. I added the sprinkle looking details with Granny Apple Green after coloring the balloon with Melon Mambo again. The simple script of the Happy Birthday is a good one. I will be using that stamp often in my birthday cards.
DIES
The arched shape front layer is from my new favorite layering Dies set Everyday Arches. I forgot to double check, but it may be the largest of the Dies. I like these Dies for their versatility. The sizes are great. This could be made into a card by not cutting the top section and there are various layering possibilities. My brain immediately saw a window or door. When I travel to Europe I take a ton of photos of their doors. They are large and ornate or simply painted a bright color. This shape reminds me of that.
PAPERS
The bright colors included on the card are pulled from the DSP you see from behind the arch. It is hidden more than I like, but still the brightness pops out. This sheet is from the Toadstool Gardens Designer Series Paper that is a SAB choice. The Granny Apple Green card base is one of the included colors as is Melon Mambo. But the Melon Mambo with the DSP seemed to blend to much. I wanted Pop!
EXTRAS
This card is all about bright and popping out. So to complete that look I used the Purple Adhesive Backed Sequins that are also a SAB choice. They have quite a lot of shine to them. I chose to scatter more than my normal one or three. The white space could take it and the happy cupcake seemed to like the extra bling.
