Hi Stamping Friends!

So, what is your favorite item from the Sale-A-Bration Brochure?  I'm loving this year's choices so much this year that it sure makes it hard to decide.  Today's card design uses two of my favorites—the Best Year Ever Designer Series Paper and the Big Day stamp set!  You can choose either one for FREE when you order $50 during the Sale-A-Bration promotion!

The Best Day Ever DSP not only has a pretty combination of colors, it's also filled with small, multicolored patterns that look great on the small canvas of a card!

Background Basics—I started with a 3" x 5-1/2" piece of Best Year Ever DSP and matted it on a 3-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Coastal Cabana.  It's adhered to a Calypso Coral card base.

Chalk Board Label—The Big Day stamp set's hand-drawn, sketched look makes it an excellent choice for stamping on the new Chalk Board Paper.  Before stamping, I rubbed the Chalk Board Paper with the Embossing Buddy for the sole purpose of "chalking up" the paper.  You certainly don't need to do this, I just like the chalky residue adding to the look.

I stamped the Big Day image onto a Labels Collection Framelits Chalk Board Paper die-cut in White Craft Ink.  I love how this bright, opaque ink really pops on black! 

TIP: For best results, make sure that your White Craft Ink is really inked up before stamping.  You want the rubber fully covered for an image that really pops!

TIP: It takes some time for the Craft Ink to dry, so be very careful not to smudge it before it's dry.  You can use the Heat Tool to speed up the process.

Once the ink was thoroughly dry, I popped up the element with Dimensionals and added some Rhinestone Jewels.

Two Cool—I also tried a phrase from the Feel Goods stamp set because the images also have a hand-written look.  This is another great set to use on Chalk Board Paper.

Banner Accents—I finished my focal point with some colorful Banner punches in Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry and Calypso Coral.  They are all popped up with Dimensionals. Super cute!
