Today's group starts out with a card made by Robin Messenheimer. She used the Cheerful Treat DSP, which is one of the exclusive hostess items you can get when you hold a workshop or a book party of at least $150. I just love the bright colors in this paper! Robin added two kinds of ribbon - Concord Crush 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon and Bashful Blue 5/8" Satin Ribbon layered onto a piece of Old Olive cardstock that was punched with the Scallop Trim Border punch. (The saying is no longer available. It's from a stamp set called Happy Greetings that was available in the last mini catalog.)

Next up is a monochromatic card made by Tory Bray using My Friend. The colors are Calypso Coral and Basic Black. The Eyelet Border Punch at the bottom gives a little added interest, as do the Basic Pearls under the saying and the black ribbon at the top.

Here's another Pennant Parade card. This one was made by Shari Dudek. I just love how versatile this stamp set is! And the Basic Rhinestones on the tree are just right. She used 3, which is more pleasing to your eye because it's an odd number. All of the extra cardstock layers make this card a standout!



Oh yes, I thought I should show you my card. It's also a monochromatic card made with Poppy Parade and Crumb Cake cardstock. I used the Fun Flowers Bigz L Die and ran each flower layer through a different Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. (In case you can't tell, I used the Vintage Wallpaper, Perfect Polka Dots, and Finial Press folders.) The saying is from Perfect Punches and is punched out with the Extra-Large Oval Punch. I also used the Neutrals Collection Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack, Antique Brads, Poppy Parade 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon, and sponges.

Until next time...
