Good Sunday morning my fellow stampers. How is everyone’s weekend going? Why is it weekends go so quick and weekdays seem to drag? I’ll be working again today and I have a feeling it’s going to be a slow day, like watching paint dry slow. Yesterday I worked a little later than I expected, I forgot it was the 1st of the year and I had to do a little extra with my bills.

For today I have another Black & White card for you. I’m usually all about color, not quite sure what’s going on with me. I used the Stampin’ Up! Heal Your Heart Cling Stamp Set for my card which is a Sale-A-Bration item. Here’s my card for today.

I played along with the TGIF Color Challenge #297.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Heal Your Heart stamp set (available January 5th) on the bottom of a Whisper White panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I embossed the panel using the Dandelion 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted card front to a Thick Whisper White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a few Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Heal Your Heart stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the dandelion image from the Stampin’ Up! Garden Wishes Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Basic Black mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the dandelion image from the Garden Wishes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the True Love Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my Clean and Simple, Quick and Easy card for today and will give it a try. This stamp set is a free set during Sale-A-Bration starting Tuesday January 5th, with a qualifying order of $50. If you are in need of a catalog, please feel free to drop me a note and I will get one out to you ASAP. Happy Stamping!!
