IT'S A BLUE-TI-FUL LIFE!!!...

Today I have a card I did for a shoebox swap.  I tried to get as many Occasion Catalog items in there as I could and I managed to get FIVE in there!  I found my inspiration in the gorgeous Watercolor Wonder DSP and worked from there.   I decided to use the Hardwood stamp for the background and flip it from it's expected use for a masculine card – I think it looks beautiful on this feminine card!


The focal piece is stamped with a sentiment from the Perfect Pennants stamp set and finished with the new Scalloped Tag Topper Punch.  The little flowers are punched from the Watercolor Wonder DSP with the new Petite Petals Punch and then color distressed.  Here is another variation I did using the same stamp set, but a different sentiment for a birthday card:
