You Make Me Happy for CCMC284

Happy New Year!  I hope you all had a safe and happy holiday!!  Today I have a clean and simple card to share that I made for this week's challenge at Create with Connie and Mary.  We have a bold color challenge this week, take a look at our colors.

I love the bright bold colors and felt that a clean and simple card was the way to go.  I used See Ya Later and Banner Blast from the upcoming Sale-a-bration catalog.

I love how the bold colors look against the Whisper White background with Black matting.  The banners across the left are so fun, alternating colors with Extra Large Rhinestone Gems in between.


The greeting was stamped with Black StazOn in the lower right corner.  I stamped "happy" with Strawberry Slush and die cut it with the largest banner from Itty Bitty Banners and placed it on with dimensionals.  The sides needed trimmed just a little for it to fit perfectly. 

A little tip for you, use the Chalk Marker to correct a small boo boo.  If you look above the "h" there was a small bit of Strawberry Slush that was still showing so I dabbed a bit of the chalk marker over it to cover it up!


I hope you've enjoyed today's sneak peak at Sale-a-bration stamps! 

I hope you will join me and do a card of your own with this week's color challenge.  You can find all the details and more samples from the Design Team at Create with Connie and Mary.  Thanks for visiting today!

If it doesn't move...stamp it!!

You packed a lot of "pow" in your clean and simple card! Love the rhinestones and the bold colors against the white card stock.
