It's Tuesday and I I am here with a great sketch challenge from Try Stampin' on Tuesday! I even got to play with some goodies from the upcoming Occasions Mini and Sale a bration (SAB) mini catalogues:)
Here's the sketch:
And here's my card:
I used a new favourite colour combo of mine: Pool Party, Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral and Poppy Parade. The tag was created by cutting a strip of Crumb Cake cardstock and inserting one end into the 2 1/2" Circle punch to create the rounded top. I then spritzed, Misted, smooched and sponged the heck out of it. The floral image is a new set from SAB called Fresh Vintage and I stamped it in Whisper white Craft Ink.
Can you see any more new items on the card? I am telling you the new mini and SAB this year will knock you socks off! The very thin Organdy Ribbon and the gorgeous Designer Series Paper are also part of the SAB collection this year (which you can earn for FREE). I also used another new favourite set called Loving Thoughts (upcoming Occasion Mini) , the font is just so beautiful in this one and has 11 different words and phrases. To fork the banner for the sentiment I used the top of the Full Heart Punch which created a slight curve on the ends.
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Loving Thoughts, Fresh Vintage (SAB)
Inks: Soft Suede, Tea Stain ( Essentials Destressing Kit), Poppy Parade, Calypso Coral Marker, Whisper White
Paper: Pool Party, Blushing Bride, Poppy Parade, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla
Accessories: 2 1/2" Circle Punch, Full Heart Punch, Postage Stamp Punch, Detressing Essentials Kit, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch, Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon, 1/8" Calypso Coral Ribbon (SAB), Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper (SAB), Basic Pearl Jewels, sponges, Vanilla Shimmer smooch spritz

Very pretty, and I LOVE that you used the heart punch to fork your banner. lol I've used the square punch for that, and have used other punches for other types of ends, but hadn't thought about the heart punch. Love the curve it gives.
