You have heard me express my gratitude for being part of the Stampin' Up! organization. Even more fun is being a part of the Stampin' Pretty Pals and InkBig. I believe I have the best upline team in all of Stampin' Up! Mary Fish and her upline Lisa Pretto do an amazing job of inspiring us and creating a fun, positive and cohesive group with team members all over the country.
As team members we display our creativity and encourage each other. Mary and Lisa hold fun contests which entice us to participate. Last week I learned that Lisa Pretto selected me to receive a box of current Stampin' Up! goodies as a prize for participating.
Of course I needed to create a special thank you card to send to Lisa.
I used the new yummy In-Color Tangelo Twist as the base of my card.
The flower is from the Mixed Bunch Stamp Set and stamped three times on Very Vanilla card stock. (Twice in Tangelo Twist and once in Baked Brown Sugar.) Using the Blossom punch I punched two flowers one is a stamped image and one is simply from a piece of Tangelo Twist card stock.
The second Mixed Bunch flower was punched out with the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle. I then punched the center of the second Tangelo Twist flower with the 3/4" circle punch.
Then sentiment is from Lots of Thanks. And framed with a couple of quick punches of the Label Bracket punch.
The layer of DSP is from the In-Colors Designer Series Paper Stack, a must have for any stamper/crafter.
Each layer of the flower sits atop the next with a Stampin Dimensional. The finishing touch – a Basic Pearl of course.
This card is a bit of a teaser for the Pals Blog Hop on Wednesday. July's hop will feature projects using the new In-Color Collection. I love the new in-colors and think this will be one of the best hops ever! Don't miss it.
So until Wednesday, happy crafting!
