Oh Happy Day--New In-Colors


Welcome to Punchin' Up!

Oh Happy Day


I made this card for a local Demonstrator swap that I do once a month.  I used all the NEW 2016-2018 In-Colors for the balloons.  I LOVE the new in-colors as they just make me feel happy when I look at them, so I thought this saying "Oh Happy Day" was perfect for this card.  I'm excited and looking forward to being able to create and share with you all the fun things that can be made using them.


I also used a technique that I learned at On Stage last month, curling the Baker's Twine.  I didn't realize that you can curl the Baker's Twine just like you would curling ribbon for a package by using the edge of your scissors.  I think it just adds dimension to the balloons on the card.  
What do you think?

Beautiful Blessings- Rose Wonder

Welcome To Punchin' Up!

Beautiful Blessing 

First of all I want to say.... I hope all you moms had a wonderful Mother's Day.  Mine was fantastic... BBQ, good food and my family what more could I ask for.

This card I am sharing today is a card that we made a couple weeks ago at my Stampin' Up Card Class/workshop that I have at my house.  I received a card similar to it from my friend Linda in a card swap.  I thought it was quite pretty, so I had to duplicate it with a few changes of my own. It is using many colors of card stock and a variety of  circle punches.


A great way to use up those scraps that we just can't throw away. LOL
