Happy Birthday

Are you counting down the days until you can order from the new catalog? Here are a few new sneak peek products for you!

The punched-out pieces are created with the new rectangle punch, and the designer series paper is called Paper Medley.  This paper would be great for masculine cards and that is what I was going for on this one.

The stamp set is called Exciting Times; I stamped the piece behind the punched-out sentiment layer and then cut it out with my paper snips. The sentiment layer is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Supplies:

Exciting Times

Secret Sea, Pretty Peacock ink

Basic White, Pretty Peacock card stock

Rounded Rectangle Punch

Paper Medley dsp
