you're 28 let's celebrate! card made using Cake basics and January stamp of the month!

Hello, friends!

 Today's card is made using the Cake Basics cartridge, the Banners CCR cartridge, and the January stamp of the month. 

This is for my middle brother who turned 28 last Friday. I actually thought of the idea after finding this patterned paper in my stash. You just never know what is going to give you an idea!

The paper is from My Mind's Eye.
I cut the circle out at 3" and the '28' out at 1 3/4". The banner was cut out using the CCR, so I am not sure of the size.
The stamps are from the January stamp of the month.
 Thanks so much for stopping by today. Tomorrow is Hello Thursday, so as soon as we get the announcement I will post!

 January promotions:

The January stamp of the month is called Little Reminder and coordinates with the Art Philosophy cartridge. It also has some great number and sentiment stamps! As usual it is $17.95 if purchased alone or only $5 with any purchase of $50 or more!




Also, the Rock the Block promotion continues until the end of the month for any order over $25 out of the Fall/Winter catalog for just $15 (a $45 value!). You save $30!

This great promotion comes with the blocks, holder, and this massive stamp set!

*NOTE make sure you add promotions when prompted by the ordering system. If you add promotional items for prompting the discount price will not be reflected in the total. Also, orders cannot be altered after the orders are placed. Please contact me before the order is finalized if you have problems.



Have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!

YAY! I'm first! :D Nice card! I really gotta get into the CCR. I am still trying to figure out my design studio so I don't think I can understand CCR. :( Thanks for sharing.

Nice card. Love the ribbon. I have been snowed in for several days. Been getting a jump on my Valentine cards. Took a break to clean out a closet. Still snowing today so maybe another card or two.
Thanks for all your great ideas
