We start our card with a Basic Black card base, then added a layer of Sahara Sand card stock embossed with the new World Traveler Embossing Folder. We put the paper in the folder so that it embossed for a tall card (with part of the paper peaking out of the top of the embossing folder - that way the orientation of the map matched the orientation of the card - this will make a lot more sense when you have your paper and embossing folder in your hand!).
World Traveler Embossing Folder 138289 $7.50
Next, we stamped that awesome, vintage airplane (from The Sky is the Limit Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set) in Basic Black Archival ink. The clouds on the top of our Sahara Sand embossed piece are also from The Sky is the Limit Sale-a-Bration Stamp set. Make sure to order this stamp set soon, as it is only available until February 15!
There are 2 other Sale-a-Bration items that are only available until February 15 - the Hello Stamp set and the Perfectly Artistic Designer Series Paper. See all 3 of these items at the back of the Sale-a-Bration brochure here (pages 16-19).
The Sky is the Limit Stamp Set wood-mount (FREE with a $50 order until 2/15)
The Sky is the Limit Stamp Set clear-mount (FREE with a $50 order until 2/15)
We added a piece of Basic Black card stock, along with a piece of Going Places Designer Series Paper below our airplane stamped image.
We also rounded the corners of 2 sides of this piece with our Corner Rounder punch.
Going Places Designer Series Paper 140581 $8.00
Project Life Corner Rounder Punch 135346 $8.00
Finally, we stamped "Happy Birthday" (also from The Sky is the Limit Stamp Set), punched the end of our Whisper White piece with our Banner Triple Punch and added a Basic Black Baker's Twine bow to our card. I just love the font of the words in The Sky is the Limit Stamp set - this may be a set that I keep for quite a while!
Banner Triple Punch 138292 $23.00
Basic Black Baker's Twine 134576 $3.00
