Today I have paired the Wonderful World Stamp Set with Stitchery Stamp set to create this very quick and easy birthday card. I love the color combination – really fresh and bright – that I accidently tripped over a couple of weeks ago, check it out here. It also gives me an chance to share another of the Sale-a-bration freebies that you can choose when you place a minimum order .

We have one more month of Sale-a-bration – let me remind you about it……………………. For every $50 to $100 you spend you get to select free products from the Sale-A-Bration Summer 2022 Brochure. (see the link to the right) In the brochure, each item indicates if it requires a $50 or $100 purchase. Depending on the amount you spend, you’ll be able to mix and match the Sale-A-Bration items you earn. There are some fantastic options to choose from stamp sets, designer paper, and dies! – click here for more info on Sale-a-bration.
