Happy Tuesday! I hope your week is off to a good start. I am back to work today after an extra-long Easter weekend thanks to the big ice storm we had last week.
Today I have a project that features one of the free stamp sets you can earn with a $60 order during Sale-a-bration. There isn't much time left to take advantage of this freebie...check it out:

| Any-occasion card featuring the Botanicals For You Sale-a-bration stamp set...available only until March 31st! |
This was such a quick and easy card to make! I began with a piece of Whisper White card stock on which I stamped the sentiment and the little flowers and leaves using Versamark ink. I heat embossed the images using clear embossing powder. Then I did a wash using an Aqua Painter filled with rubbing alcohol. I began with Pool Party ink, then moved to Bermuda Bay and Island Indigo. I love the resulting depth of colour and the fact that I could use regular card stock rather than watercolour paper.
I layered the stamped panel on a piece of Island Indigo card stock and then mounted it on a thick Whisper White 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" card base. The sentiment, also from the Botanicals for You set, is heat embossed in white on vellum.
That yummy ribbon is the Bermuda Bay 1/8" Stitched Ribbon from the Occasions catalogue. Thank goodness that stuff is around for another month...I love it!
Don't miss out on this fabulous stamp set. It is only available until Thursday at midnight and only with a $60 CAN/ $50 US order. Order yours today and don't forget to check out the new Weekly Deals in the right sidebar!
