Sale-A-Bration is in full swing!  There are so many great options to choose from.  Heartfelt Blooms is one of my favorites (yes, I know I have a lot of favorites) and it is so pretty and interesting too.  The way the stamp is created it lays down the ink in different opacities which means some areas are darker or lighter.   You stamp like normal and the stamp does all the work.  I love a stamp that does all the work for me.  

What do you think?  It took me a bit to figure out the correct measurements and then once I had the image cut up I decided to glitter them.  

All About the Paper:

Very Vanilla Thick 4-1/4" x 11 scored at 5-1/2",  3-3/8" x 3-3/4" these are the panels and are cut again to measure 1-1/8" x 3-3/4", scrap for the sentiment

Basic Black  3-3/4" x 5"

Berry Burst 4" x 5-1/4" and scrap for scallop oval

To glitter the image I inked up the entire strip with VersaMark and then embossed it using a mix of Clear Embossing Powder and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.  I start with a  1-1 mix and then add more embossing powder as needed.  I call this mix Glittery Goodness.  Stampin' Up! used to sell an embossing powder called Iridescent Ice which is the inspiration for Glittery Goodness.
