This Thinking of You card is the first of several Sale-A-Bration projects I plan on posting throughout the Sale-A-Bration period. This is our most exciting promotion at Stampin’ Up! People love it because they can get free product—and who doesn’t love free stuff!

This card features one of the frame images from the Vintage Labels set, my favorite Sale-A-Bration stamp offering (although I'll certainly use them all!).

Notice that I’ve used it in several different ways: first, as a frame, like it was intended, behind the “Thinking of You” accent; next, as a larger frame background image behind the accent (you’ll need to stamp it four different ways from four different angles to get this look—sounds complicated but it’s quite easy to figure out); and finally as an added texture image on the Bella Toile stamped background.

I like this card so much that I’m actually planning on making a dozen or more in the next day or so, with a Rich Razzleberry and Crushed Curry color palette. It’s actually quite quick and easy to make, but it’s beautiful. I know several people right now who are going through a difficult time, and I want them to know I’m thinking of them. This card is a great way to do that!
