Welcome to the Pals February Hop! I’m so glad you stopped by. If you came from my Pal Kim Lampone's Stamp, scrap, get kreative blog, I’m sure you loved what you saw there. This month, the Pals are showcasing the Sale-a-bration catalog … and oh what goodies there are in it.
I love the Cottage Wall Designer Series Paper, so I chose to use two floral papers from it. My Sale-a-bration items are the Vintage Labels Stamp Set and the Happy Moments Stamp Set. I also couldn’t resist using the Scallop Trim Border Punch.
I love the way the Vintage Label Top Note stamp echoes the Stampin’ Up! Top Note Bigz Die on the outside of the card.
For the interior, I used the Top Note Bigz Die to create my writing space. And, if you know me, you know that I can’t resist using glitter on my cards so I heat embossed the birthday cake using Craft Whisper White and sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds.
I don’t want to keep you too long since there are 19 Pals this month on the Hop and I’d like you to see all of them. Your next stop is my Pal Regina Mangum at The Stampin' Bean. I know you will love what she has prepared for you.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Please feel free to leave me a comment. I would love to hear from you.

Oooo, Gina! I just love the purple (or Rich Razzleberry, I should say)! Love your mix of patterns and love the ribbon accent, too! So very pretty! Thanks for sharing!

Gaw-jus!! Two of my favorite things, Cottage Wall DSP and Bigz Top Note (made with, of course, my FAVORITE SU! item, the Big Shot.) I agree, I love how the stamp looks like the Top Note. :)

Gorgeous!! Love it all.. especially what you've done with the ribbon on the front of the card. And my weakness is glitter as well! Fabulous job done with the inside as well! Kudos!

Wow!!! I love this card! It's so detailed yet most of the work is from the DSP. Very cool!
