Directions:

1. Cut cardstock and DSP to measurements

FIRST CARD

2. Score 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" Blue Sky cardstock at 4 1/4".  

3. Rub the DSP with the Embossing Buddy.

4. Using 'The Sky is the Limit' sentiment and VersaMark, stamp on the vertical piece of DSP. Emboss with Basic Black Embossing Powder and Heat Gun.

5. Attach the stamped DSP to the 4" x 5 1/4" Basic Black cardstock with Snail. Attach to front of 

card.

6. Using the 4" x 5 1/4" Whisper White cardstock, stamp 'Congratulations' using the Memento Black Ink. Attach to the inside of the card base.

SECOND CARD

1. Score 4 1/4" x 11" Blue Sky cardstock at 5 1/2" (I like this cut for horizontal cards as they stand easier and do not splay)

3. Rub the horizontal DSP with the Embossing Buddy.

4. Using  the 'Happy Birthday' sentiment and the plane image, stamp with VersaMark, stamp on the horizontal piece of DSP. Emboss with Basic Black Embossing Powder and Heat Gun.

5. Attach embossed DSP to the 4" x 5 1/4" Basic Black mat. (Unless of course you stamped the sentiment crookedly, then you must cut the paper down so that it looks straight - hence my different card...)

6. Add three Basic Black Candy Dots to the bottom right of the DSP (or the cardstock if you had to cut it smaller...)

7. Using the 4" x 5 1/4" Whisper White cardstock, stamp the 'My Friend' sentiment (from Hello stamp set - Sale-a-bration) in Black Memento ink. Stamp clouds with Black Memento ink.
