Celebrate with Sale-A-Bration

We are down to just under 3 weeks until Sale-A-Bration is over. It ends on March 31st. What is Sale-A-Bration? If you spend $60 before shipping & taxes, you receive a free item from the Sale-A-Bration catalogue. There are a lot of great items for you to get!! Not only the ones that are new but also in the back of the catalogue is a long list of stamps that you can get from the current Idea Book & Catalogue. This is a great deal that you don't want to miss out on!!

On with today's card, this card is full of Sale-A-Bration items. All new items that will retire at the end of March.

Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets: Sweet Summer (SAB) 121849W & 123214C; Something to Celebrate (Hostess Level 2; Occasions Mini Catalogue) 121897W & 121955C
Card Stock: Early Espresso -5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored at 4 1/4; Daffodil Delight -5 1/4 x 4; Ice Cream Parlor DSP (SAB) -2 x 4; Very Vanilla
Ink: Classic Stampin' Pad -Melon Mambo 115656; Daffodil Delight 119667
Other Supplies: Scallop Edge Border Punch 119882; Scallop Oval Punch 119856; 1 3/4" x 7/8" Oval Punch 119855; Glue Dots 103683; Dimensionals 104430; Sanding Block 103301; Bone Folder 102300; Cutter Kit 106958; Ice Cream Parlor Ribbon & Button Pack 123529

Technique Tip: Using the Sanding Block, sand your card stock or DSP to give it the distressed looked. To add more distressing, take the cutter kit and scrape the card stock or DSP.
For the border punch, I punched the border out first then distressed it. After, I curled the scallops using my bone folder.

Hope you had a great weekend Everyone!! I may not have many post this week due to March break. Hoping to do lots of fun stuff with the kiddos!!
