Stampin' Up! - Thank You card

Hi

Welcome to this week's Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge.



To create my card, I punched circles out of the Cherry on Top DSP, focusing on the different dotty colours in the patterned paper. I arranged these similar to the sketch. 

I finished it off with a banner, a wooden greeting and some sequins. 

 Here is our sketch for this week...


I was also inspired by the 'Tic Tac Toe' challenge at The Paper Players this week. My card uses the recipe elements from the top line...Watermelon Wonder, Circles and sequins!

Cardstock - Whisper White Thick cardstock, Whisper White CS,

    Way to go Alison - what a great CAS card! A clever use of the Cherry on Top DSP and I love that you managed to use our PP tic tac toe board this week too! Your bold green banner really stands out and the sprinkle of sequins adds a fun touch. Love it!

    Why didn't I think of using punches and DSP! So clever! It is a great CAS card! The sequins and Natural Expressions word are the "cherry on the top" of your card! lol! Great job with the sketch this week!

    What a great idea to use designer series paper and punches! The sequins are such a nice touch and a sweet contrast to the wooden element.

    Clever idea to use the circles from the DSP! Love the wood sentiment and sequins. Sorry I am late with my comment. Family health issues. Better late than never!
