Pretty Petites Meets Sycamore Street

Hi there!  Long time no post, right?  Sorry about that – I’ll be better in the future! 🙂  So, today’s card uses some of my favorite things from Sale-A-Bration 2013.  This is the time of year that with every $50 you spend, you get to choose a FREE item!!!  The Sycamore Street Designer Series Paper (featured on this project) has been probably the favorite choice!!!  I also feature the Pretty Petites Stamp Set, Petite Curly Label Punch, as well as the Sycamore Street Ribbon & Button Pack.  Remember you only have until March 22nd to get these Sale-A-Bration exclusive items.  (*Note:  One exception is the Petite Curly Label Punch.  It will be in the 2013-2014 Annual Catalog, however, then you’d have to pay for it! )  One of my favorite things about this patterned paper is the color combination.  So fresh and fun!  I never would’ve thought to put these colors together and it is making me use my much neglected Tangerine Tango!  I love that!

I fell in love with a card of Lyssa Zwolenak’s that used this teeny tiny stamp set.  I changed out all of the colors and the paper but copied her layout exactly!  I used the 1-3/8″ square punch to punch out 4 squares of the Sycamore Street DSP.  I then used the regular Curly Label Punch (in the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog) to punch out another piece of the paper.  I cut it in half since less than half of it would be showing anyway!  I glued the squares to a 3-1/8″ x 3-1/8″ piece of Whisper White Card Stock, then glued the half Curly Label on the back.  The 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of Island Indigo has a knot tied around it with the Tangerine Tango ribbon from the Sycamore Street Ribbon & Button Pack (I LOVE this ribbon!  It ties super nicely and feels satiny smooth!).  That piece was adhered to a 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ of Rich Razzleberry Card Stock that is scored at 4-1/4″, and then the main image piece that we assembled earlier is glued on the right half of the card.  I attached a Rich Razzleberry button from that same Sycamore Street Ribbon & Button Pack with a Glue Dot.  Finally, I used the cute Pretty Petites Stamp Set and stamped the birthday image on a scrap of Whisper White Card Stock with the Island Indigo Classic Stampin’ Pad.  Then flip your punch over, line it up with the image and punch it out!  Adhere it onto your project with a Stampin’ Dimensional!  YAY!  You’re done!

The great thing about this stamp set is that you could literally make 8 or 12 of these in a short amount of time and just pop a different stamped image on the different cards so you’re ready for anything!  Super fast and easy!  Have I mentioned how much I LOVE our coordinating stamps and punches?!?
