The new Pennant Parade stamp set and punch is SO much fun! I love all the different things you can make with it…ice cream cones, Christmas trees, birthday hats…and, of course, pennants!
I used Technostampers Sketch today as the basis for my card! I loved the clean lines to it. I took my colors from the Big Top Birthday Designer Paper…although I switched out the Tempting Turquoise for Pacific Point. I had originally thought of going with a red/white/blue theme.
And here is my card…
Very simple card…hmmm…I see I forgot to add the little rhinestone bling to the tassels like I intended! Oh well! lol! I'll add them before I send it out for someone's birthday!
The base of the card is Real Red. I layered on Whisper White that I ran thru the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder. I cut two strips of the Big Top Birthday DSP at different lengths. I punched a 1 3/4 Circle of Pacific Point cardstock. On top, I stamped two of the "pennants" in Daffodil Delight and Real Red, then punched with the Petite Pennants Builder Punch. I stamped the little "asterisk" in Real Red and Daffodil Delight and punched with the 3/8 Circle from Itty Bitty Punches. I also stamped Wish Big in Pacific Point and placed along the edge of the circle. I think it is a fun, quick and easy card…suitable for ANY age! It has such playful colors!
