Hi Everyone and welcome to Friday. First off, I would like to thank Tiffany Bauer over at My Crafty World. Tiffany chose my Mother's Day card to showcase on her "My Crafty Picks". Drop by Tiffany's site to have a look at all of her crafty picks.
The card today is a birthday card for Lloyd's son. Blogger was down yesterday so I missed the Stamping 411 sketch challenge but I have time to enter this card into the Paper Player's colour challenge. The challenge was to use Not Quite Navy, Early Espresso and Cherry Cobbler.
I used the Party Hearty stamp for this card and it is also available to purchase for 30% off as part of the promotion for National Scrapbooking Month.
Click here to shop for this stamp.
Stamps: Party Hearty (w – 111532, $32.95, IB&C p. 54)
Paper: Natural White, Whisper White, Not Quite Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Nautical Expedition DSP
Ink: Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler
Accessories: Big Shot, Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Circles #2 Die, Scallop Punch, Extra-Large Tag Punch, Baker’s Twine, Scallop Trim Border, Ticket Corner Punch, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Punch, and Button
The Not Quite Navy layer was sponged with Early Espresso after running through the Big Shot and the Square Lattice embossing folder. It really makes the lattice work pop.
So that is my post for today. Enjoy and until next time.....
Love the button idea in the middle of the b. You can't go wrong with Party Hearty!! :)

ReplyDeleteKaren great card. A lot of my comments disappeared due to Blogger yesterday... I'm sure I said it better the first, but I Really liked these colors too. Your tag is one of those stamps I've been wanting a long time, but I'm still up in the air about that set... Love a few of the {wish there was "different" stamps}.. oh well guess with 30% off NOW IS the time get it. I am my best customer, so I see in the next box.
