Celebrate Your Big Day

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

I created the card I'm sharing with you today using one of the FREE stamp sets, Big Day, that you can get during Stampin' Up!'s Sale-A-Bration event. If you missed yesterday's SAB and Occasions catalog launch post, you can see it here).

It's the first time I've used the set and I love it! There are five stamps in the set and I've used them all to create the card; the 3 I've used for the sentiment panel, the tiny candle and the fifth, a delicious birthday cake which is hiding inside for the recipient to find...


I've stamped everything in what else but Crumb Cake ink, then colored the lettering and banner with my Crisp Cantaloupe Stampin' Write marker from the 2013 - 2015 In Color set, and I then layered the Whisper White stamped layer onto a Crisp Cantaloupe panel. To add a finishing touch of glitter I've used Dazzling Details on the candle flames, although the photo doesn't shown this well, I assure you it's there!
