SWEETEST STAR
For this card, I’ve used the Modern Oval Punch. It has been a VERY popular punch and consistently goes out of stock! It is great for greetings and gives this background an interesting look! I also LOVE the small red and green Take a Bow prints! Perfect to use for Christmas!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Real Red cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded to form the base card.
- Each pattern from Take A Bow 6×6 DSP was punched with the Modern Oval Punch. I laid them out in a pattern I liked to balance the colors, then adhered them on a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock. The excess was trimmed off the sides.
- The greeting from Sweetest Star was stamped with Memento Black Ink on a 1/2 x 5 piece of Real Red cardstock and the ends cut in a flag. It was added diagonally across the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- I had a few of these pine branches cut from Garden Green and Granny Apple Green cardstock with the Winterly Tree Tops Die.
- A few Basic Rhinestone Jewels were added to the pine branches for “berries” and makes the card sparkle!

SUPER easy card once the patterns were laid out! You could easily add a focal stamped image if you wanted! OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Stamping Friends website, then on to creative Debbie Henderson, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!
