Here is the card I created using a pennant...
Thank you!
For my card today, I used the fabulous
August 123 Create Kit from Flourishes! This kit jammed full of some cool things. Check out the newest 123 Create Kit
here! Shop NOW... they go
FAST!
For my card's sentiment, I used the "
Thank You!" from the newly released
2011 FLIP stamp set,
With Gratitude. I also added a few simple pink dots along with the polka dot pennants from the
Birthday Pennants set. That little white button is one of the many fabulous pieces in this month's
123 Create Kit!
To add a little more whimsy, I stamped a few more dainty images of bees and leaves on the large dots of the patterned papers by Authenique. These cute little images all came from the
Tiny Flowers and Tags stamp collection.
Come on out and
CELEBRATE with us! There will be lots of great inspiration and fabulous
PRIZES! Good luck!!!
