You know I like to say I love square cards because…."It's hip to be square"…but give me some ideas in what to say with a round card!!!
All I can think of is…."the wheels on the bus go round and round…." – any idea???? Well – I think that this turned out fun….it's different at least!
The Stamp Sets used were Timeless Talk and Lots of Thanks! I have posted before on both of these stamp sets and they are great "fall backs" when needing a quick card!
The "fun factor" of this card is that it is a circle! Pulling out Mr Big Shot and using the Scalloped Circle Bigz Die to create the outer fun circle was the focal aspect to this card….the rest came together with the Circle Framelits!
How did I get it to be a card….simple! I poked a hole before adding the "white bike piece" with Stampin' demensionals and simply pushed a brad to hold the (2) scalloped Basic Grey Circle together to create a swing effect!
The fun finishing touches to this card were the Brights Candy Dots! They are the best….I must admit – I realize that you can use them with brads….but I never do that – I just love the ease of placing them exactly where I want them! Super fast and easy! The little red 1/4" stitched grosgrain ribbon added that special yet fun touch!
Cute….isn't it? The last little bit of fun I did was to use something that we all forget about….it the the Uni-Ball Signo Gel Pen! This white gem adds a perfect finishing touch and for just $3.95, it's a keeper!!!! Little dots around the scallops was the final fun touch!
I have been asked by many if I am going to convention…..sad news….no! Since I was on a family vacation last week, I simply could not take off the time from work! I know it is going to be a blast and I am anxiously awaiting facebook chat reports from the PALS!
Email me or leave me a comment and let me know how you like this! My daughter fell in love with it and wants me to do more circle cards!
Until tomorrow…..it's a Pals Paper Art Challenge!
So cute. I must try this.
Like all of your cards, it is beautiful! You are such an inspiration! One thing though, I miss your envelope 🙁
Love it! This is one of my Fave sets too! Thanks for the tip about the brad too. That is a neat idea! Thanks for sharing!
This one is a keeper:). But like Mary said, I miss the envelope also. I love that stamp set, oh my, the wheels are spinning in my head already:)
Let’s plan on convention next year, I would love to meet you in person. I’m headed to the DC area the end of August for three weeks.
Hi Sue,
Sorry you aren’t going to convention. I am sure it must be so much fun for you all. I am sure you had fun with your family too. I recently retired and have no idea how I ever worked. I love this circle card and hope to try it some day. I don’t have a big enough circle at this time. Oh, I have some ovals and can make a smaller card, with my biggest oval. I love the brad and slide opening! I’ll let you know how it comes out.
Again, thanks a bunch for all your inspiration!
Oh my, you just keep rolling along with these fun ideas! Love the colors you chose too. I like the idea of the round card with the round tires on the bike or trike or whatever it is! The white pen is the perfect complement! Thanks for sharing it with us.
