HEARTS A FLUTTER BANNER CARD


Cool blue Pool Party is a wonderful color for men, women, teens, and kids.  It's one of my favorites, and I will be sorry to see it leave Stampin' Up!'s color palette at the end of May.  So let's enjoy it all the more while we can :o)

Today's card could be used for such a wide variety of occasions:  birthday, anniversary, wedding, valentine, get well, I'm thinking of you, or "even no particular reason but I just wanted to make you something special".

Run a panel through the Big Shot using the Honeycomb embossing folder, then lightly smooth the Whisper White craft ink pad over the raised surface to highlight the texture, a perfect backdrop to the hearts and other banner shapes.

Other supplies you will need:
stamps:  Heart A Flutter, Made For You; inks: Pool Party, Pink Pirouette, Primrose Petals, Basic Gray; tools:   Hearts A Flutter framelits, paper snips; etc:  White Baker's Twine, stampin' dimensionals

Happy Stampin'
