It kind of sounds like tic-tac-toe…3 x's in a row! This is one super stamp set and if I were you….I would let it have a great home with YOU! Remember to use the hostess code YJ4EWY3C for any orders you place with me this week so you can have a chance of the "Pot of Gold" and YOU will win the hostess winnings – my thanks to YOU for your support!
This card is for the Grandparents to the twins that I made a card for yesterday, click here to see it if you missed yesterday's post! Playing with the colors of the school…it came together in a jif! When I showed John it….he said – "switch up the colors and make the stripes go horizontal and do a 4th of July card!" I am going to take his advice!
Again, the key tools are….ruler, pencil, eraser, green glue, stampin trimmer and dimensionals! I have a bunch of pictures but not lots of time to type so here you go! The size of the finished card is 3" X 6 1/2" and with the envelope punch board…WOW – instant magic!
The strips of "real red" paper are 1/4" wide – (great way to use up scraps) and then the "green glue" is the best for accuracy! (just love the ability to wiggle them into place…right on the pencil lines!)
The sentiment is from the Bravo Photopolymer Stamp Set….LOVE that you can see exactly where your placement is! The size of this is 2" X 5 1/2" and then the mat in black is just a "smidge" larger!
The new star punch from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack and again, this is a must have for you! Please do not forget that you can take a "test drive" with Stampin' Up! for just $50.00 and you can pick $55.00 worth of product! You have nothing to lose and you can do this for 1 day or a lifetime – the choice is yours!
The fun and different envelope was made in a cinch with the help of the Envelope Punch Board….You just start with a 7 7/8" square pices of paper and then the outer flap of the envelope is adorned with the FUN DSP called – Back to Black….a favorite of many already!
Well….that's it – Mary Beth was OVER THE MOON happy with winning so much with placing an order with me last week. I am doing it again this week, so please put the hostess number of YJ4EWY3C in your order (If I see that you did not do it – I will call SU and change it for you)
I thank you all so much for your "popping in" every day and please continue to tell your family and friends about my blog…my passion…my desire to inspire and believe in you! You can subscribe to my daily postings!
Tomorrow is a GREAT day – it is the PALS Monthly Blog hop showcasing new favorites of many of the PALS! This is such a great group of talented stampers and wow – the best leader in the world…Mary Fish!
