Another Bundle sample

This is another bundle in the Occasions Catalog.  This one is pennants!  I LOVE it.  I am forever trying to recreate this look of pennants (it is HUGE right now).  BUT I end up whittling away a whole piece of cardstock trying to get the ends to look even.  Well, Stampin' Up!  came up with a solution JUST FOR ME!   The Perfect Pennants bundle.  



STAMPS: Perfect Pennants
COLORS:  Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Real Red
ACCESSORIES:  I Am Me DSP, Perfect Pennants framelits, 1/2" circle punch

Bundle LOVE!

I simply LOVE it when Stampin' Up!  bundles stamps with a punch or framelits.  It makes creating so simple.  This is one perfect example of a simple card using a bundle from the 2014 Occasions Catalog.  
It uses the stamp set Petite Petals and the coordinating Petite Petals Punch.  

I chose a simple color palette and did a very simple technique called stamping off.  You stamp your image first on scratch paper, then on the paper you are using for your card.  This is how I created the background for this monochromatic card using Midnight Muse ink.  I stamped a few flowers with full strength ink and punched them out with the coordinating punch to add a 3-D look.  Wrap a piece of matching ribbon around the bottom, stamp the sentiment, pop a few pearl jewels on the flowers and it's done!



STAMPS:  Petite Petals, Express Yourself (hostess set)
COLORS: Midnight Muse
ACCESSORIES:  Midnight Muse stitched satin ribbon, Petite Petals punch, Pearl jewels

Thank you for the inspiration for the card Debbie Henderson!
