Sale-a-bration Pretty Petites Thank you card

I'm working on two challenges here. One is a personal one. Since coming home from Stampin' Up! Leadership 2013 in Orlando Florida, I decided one of my goals was to post more samples onto my blog, as I have lacked the time to post in recent months. The second challenge is a SUDSOL challenge to create 5 Thank you cards in 15 minutes. Ok I didn't time myself on how long it took me to create these cards (I cased this card from one of the presenters from Leadership). It showcases two items available for FREE with our Sale-a-bration catalog.

So this is a very simple card.

Items used:

Primrose Petals Cardstock #126841 $8.50 Annual Catalog
Pool Party Cardstock #122924 $8.50 Annual Catalog
Whisper White Cardstock #100730 $9.25 Annual Catalog

Ink:
Early Espresso#126975 $7.25 Annual Catalog

Stamp Set:
Pretty Peties #129642 FREE Sale-a-bration Catalog
Petite Curly Punch #129405 FREEE Sale-a-bration Catalog

Extras:
1/2 Pearls #119247 $6.50 Annual Catalog
SNAIL104332 $9.75 Annual Catalog
Stampin' Dimensionals #104430 $5.25 Annual Catalog
Big Shot Embossing folder #129383 $9.95 Spring Mini Catalog
Curly Label Punch #119851 $22.95 Annual Catalog

If you were to order all these items your total before shipping/taxes would be $87.90 and you would be able to get one of the two Sale-a-bration items.
**Minimum order to receive a Sale-a-bration item is $60

You would be able to make 48 cards from the one package of Primrose Petels cardstock, and have plenty of extra cardstock with the Whisper White and Pool Party.
