Getting ready for an epic celebration here with the new Sale-a-Bration Epic Celebration stamp set. This is such a great set for teenagers, young men and women and anyone musical. I couldn’t wait to get it out of the case and start stamping.

My card today is designed with my cousin in mind; he is a guitarist in a local band. I started by taking Emerald Envy, Dapper Denim and Perfect Plum cardstock and cutting one panel of each at 3⅜” by 1⅝” using my Stampin’ Trimmer.

I stamped the ‘guitar’ image on each panel using Archival Basic Black ink. I can’t wait for my Stamparatus to arrive in February as I would have liked to re-stamp on the Dapper Denim again as the colour was a little light. I mounted the panels, using Tombow Liquid Adhesive onto a layer of Basic Black cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” starting with the ones on either side, finishing with the middle one. I find this the easiest way to get even spacing between the panels.

I only wanted the word AWESOME so masked off the word ‘you’re using a Post It Note. I inked up the sentiment with Archival Basic Black ink and removed the Post It Note before stamping onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. I trimmed the sentiment down with scissors and added it to the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The whole piece was then added to the front of a Thick Whisper White card base.

Love that this is such a great masculine card, hope he likes it.
