Elementary Elegance and Everyday Enchantment Happy Birthday Card

It's Thursday and that means day 4 of my birthday week!!
Here's today's card...


Stamps: Elementary Elegance (available during Sale-A-Bration starting January 24th through March 31st)
Paper: Whisper White cardstock, Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper (Sale-A-Bration product)
Ink: Lucky Limeade Stamp Pad and Pool Party Stamp Pad (2011-2013 In Colors)
Other: Curly Label Punch, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Paper Snips, Stampin' Dimensionals, Snail adhesive, Everyday Enchantment Ribbon and Brad Pack (Sale-A-Bration product), craft knife, 1/16" hole punch.

Here is a close up of the sentiment...


If you are new to Stampin' Up! then you are probably wondering what Sale-A-Bration is.
Sale-A-Bration is an amazing little sale that goes on from January 24th to March 31st. It even has it's own brochure! For every $50 you spend (not including shipping or taxes), you get one free product from the Sale-A-Bration brochure. Most of the items in the brochure are only available during Sale-A-Bration, but there are a few that are freebies from the Ideas Book and Catalog.
Another great thing about Sale-A-Bration is that if you are a Hostess during Sale-A-Bration and have a $150 workshop/party, you get a free tote along with the Hostess benefits! If you have a $400 workshop/party, you get a free hostess bundle of 3 products on pages 6 and 7 of the Sale-A-Bration brochure. I have featured two of these items in this blog post... The Everyday Enchantment DSP and the Everyday Enchantment Ribbon and Brad Pack. It's a good time to host a workshop/party! If you're interested, give me a shout!

Thanks for stopping by and if you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them!

Paper: Whisper White cardstock, Pool Party cardstock, So Saffron cardstock, Island Indigo cardstock
