The Home to Roost Stamp Set is from the 2019 Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration promotion!  Which means you can only get this stamp set for only another 6 days! This little rooster was not the first stamp set I wanted for my freebie from the promotion, but I’ve seen so many cute cards made with this stamp set, that it is now on my list!  You can get it for free with a $60 order! One of the things that I like best about the Home to Roost stamp set is the sayings!  They are perfect for a quick little note and I love the saying on this card “Just a note”. It is the perfect saying to go on a card when you just want to let someone know you are thinking of them. How awesome would it be to get a cute card like this in the mail for no reason at all!  Another part I like about this stamp set is that it is quick and easy to colour the rooster! And you can have fun with the colour combinations like the blue tail on this rooster.

The image was coloured with the Stampin’ Up! Blends markers to create that vibrant rich colour.  See more about the Blends makers here. The Blends markes used on this card are:

•  Cajun Craze Combo Pack (147931)
• Crumb Cake Combo Pack (144601)
• Bermuda Bay Combo Pack (144600)
• Real Red Dark (147934)

Be sure to use Memento Black ink to stamp your image before you colour with the Blends Alcohol markers. The background of the card was made with the Hexagon Folder in the Big Shot.  You might be wondering what the rustic looking gray paper is under the rooster.  It is a piece of Designer Paper, from the Classic Garage Designer Series Paper and it adds the perfect rustic touch to this rooster card. In fact, this card, with a birthday saying on it would be perfect for a masculine card.

Along with the Home to Roost Stamp Set, these are the other items you can get for free with a $60 order for Sale-a-bration before the end of March.
