Sky is the Limit for SUOC #141

There's only a few more days to earn the Sale-A-Bration set Sky is the Limit for free - place a $60 (Canadian) order before taxes and shipping on or before February 15 and choose this adorable set as your SAB freebie! We used this set to make a cute birthday card last week at my SAB card class, and I am entering it for the Stampin' Up! Only Challenge (SUOC) #141 which has "Happy Birthday" as the challenge! I often struggle with creating masculine cards, but this wonderful set with the vintage airplane makes it easy peasy :-)

Ink: Smoky Slate, Hello Honey, Lost Lagoon, Basic Black Archival

Paper: Whisper White, Lost Lagoon, White Corrugated 

Stamp Sets: Sky is the Limit, Kinda Eclectic

Punches: Tree Builder

I stamped off the "sun" image first to lighten the Hello Honey a bit. The idea of using the corrugated paper for my "clouds" I got from my upline, Allison. I forget about that corrugated paper, but I really like it lots and need to use it more. It also comes in Kraft - you get two 12x12 sheets of both in the package (item #138317) for only $8.75! 

Be sure to snatch up these Sale-A-Bration freebies before they are gone for good on February 16!

Happy Stampin'!
