Welcome to my alphabet series showcasing some of the new products in the 2017 Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs. Today I am showcasing the Milestone Moments Stamp Set found on page 27 in the Occasions catalog. This year there are several milestone birthdays for some of my friends and family. I made this card for my “older” sister who is turning 60 soon.
I combined the wording from Memorable Moments with the Large Numbers Framelits. I like the way the banner “wraps” the numbers and stands out…just what I wanted. My sister and I celebrated many birthdays together growing up as our birthdays are just 2 days apart. We live over 400 miles apart now but still talk on the phone everyday…sometimes several times a day! 🙂 Here’s a photo of us as kids and my favorite photo of us on her wedding day.
This card was fun and easy to make! I chose this color combination because they’re her colors. I used Night of Navy cardstock for my card base. The Whisper White layer measures just 1/8″ smaller, 4 1/8 x 5 3/8. I embossed this layer with the Confetti Embossing Folder and sponged it with Night of Navy, Old Olive, and Daffodil Delight. I stamped the sentiment in Night of Navy ink and cut the banner and numbers out using the Large Numbers Framelits. I attached the banner with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I love the embossed and sponged envelope to match!
Stamp Sets: Milestone Moments, Letters for You (banner) Inks: Night of Navy, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight Papers: Night of Navy, Whisper White Tools & Accessories: Large Numbers Framelits, Confetti Embossing Folder, Sponge Daubers, Stampin’ Dimensionals
The Milestone Moments Stamp Set can be used for birthdays, anniversary, retirement, or new baby. I really like the different fonts!
Here’s a few more ideas using this stamp set.
I am determined this year to get my birthday cards sent out on time. I made a perpetual birthday calendar and am getting my birthday cards made and filed in my card tin. If you missed my post on how I made the perpetual calendar, you can click HERE. You can get the Card Tin for FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration! Shop my online store! Use the January hostess code EPGDT3KF when you check out and I will send you 2 birthday card kits to get your cards started.
Have a memorable day!

What a wonderful surprise, my early birthday card. Looking forward to celebrating our birthdays in a few weeks!!!!! The big 6-0-. I loved the card and pictures.
This is a fun and festive card, Jeanie! Love the sponging on the folder. Your pictures are adorable!
Thanks Michelle! I treasure the few photos I have of our childhood as most were lost in a fire when our family home burned down.
Hi Jeanie! Love the details on this card. My favorite colors. I’m in the middle of three girls and love my sisters, as you do your’s. So much fun!
Happy Weekend!

I have 2 older sisters and 2 younger sisters and a brother who is the youngest (we spoiled him rotten! LOL). I always say the best gift my parents ever gave me was my siblings!!!
So agree on Siblings as a gift! I have 3 Sisters and 3 Brothers! I am the oldest of the clan! We too lost much to a ‘fire’. We have been able to scavenge photos over the years from relatives. I have them in photo albums and on cd’s. In case of fire…I grab the book of cd’s!
Great card Jeanie! You are making me want to go find pictures of my brother! Now the question is… when is your birthday!?!?!!?
