TODAY is the first day of the fabulous Occasions Catalog!!! My first must have item is what I used on this card – the Perfect Pennants Bundle!!! It has great sentiments, a great medium-sized heart and star, as well as some fun border patterned strips too. And to top it all off, it is made to work with the Banner Framelits which come bundled with the stamp set at a 15% discount! You can’t beat that, right? LOVE!
This card is also my Design Team submission for our “Arrows” theme challenge this week over at the As You See It Blog! Hot, hot trend in papercrafting right now and I just love this punch! I did a fun tone on tone effect with it here. I also, loved accenting the center of the star with a Candy Dot Brad Base with a Pumpkin Pie Candy Dot (from the Brights Collection) in the center! The “a” in “Make a Wish” is cropped out with the teeny circle in the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and popped up on a dimensional (well, a 1/4 of a dimensional anyway) for a bit of extra pizzazz. The other layers are a strip of pumpkin designer series paper from the Polka Dot Parade DSP and a piece of Old Olive cardstock that I textured with the Chevron folder.
I hope you love today’s card. Now, head on over to the As You See It Blog, check out what the other design team members have made and play along with Challenge 018! Can’t wait to see what you’ll create in our very first theme challenge!!!
