his card features all FREE stamp sets from Sale-A-bration starting January 3, 2018. I challenged myself to use a few neglected colors: Sweet Sugarplum, Wisteria Wonder & Wild Wasabi. We bonded again :)

Project Recipe
Top fold A2 Card Base in Sweet Sugarplum
4.25" wide by 11" long, scored and folded @ 5.5"
Whisper White 2.25" x 4.25"
Basic Black add 1/8" to above
Sweet Soiree' DSP 4.25" x .25"
Coordinating DSP for envelope 5.75" x 2.25"
Center the Whisper White card stock piece on card front and lightly trace in pencil. This helps you know where to stamp the sentiment.
Stamp sentiment of choice in Versamark ink. I used "Thinking of You" from the HEARTFELT BLOOMS stamp set. Love that scripty font!
Stamp the small flower from the BEAUTIFUL PEACOCK set as an accent.
Stamp the floral image from LOTS OF LAVENDER in Basic Black Archival Ink onto the Whisper White card stock.
Use the background stamps to color the image, or use a blender pen and inks like shown. I used Wisteria Wonder, Perfect plum, Sweet Sugarplum, Wild Wasabi & Soft Sky.
Attach black layer behind it with SNAIL or MP glue.
Attach the accent strip of Sweet Soiree' DSP with SNAIL or MP Glue to card front.
Attach floral image to card base with Dimensionals.
Tie a bow and attach over stamped bow in image using Mini Glue Dots (I used 4: 2 on bow and 2 on tails to totally cover stamped image)
Optional: Brush Wink of Stella over lavender for a delightful shimmer!
Decorate the envelope flap with coordinating DSP (I used retired Succulent Garden).
Stamp the back of your card & sign.
Now make someone's day by giving them a paper hug!
