2011 Pals July Blog Hop - Happiest Birthday Wishes

Welcome to the July Pals Hop! This month, we're featuring fantastic new goodies from the 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog! Enjoy the HOP and get some creative ideas for using new stamps and accessories from the amazing creations that the Pals have come up with.

You've likely hopped over from Barabara Chatzkel at http://www.takeoutpaperarts.com

I'm stop number 6 on the PALS HOP and I'm glad you hopped in!. I'll help you "hop along" from blog to blog where you'll find great ideas for paper crafted creations from the Stampin' Pretty Pals!

For this card, I used the newest embossing folder called: Stripes, which I embossed using  black cardstock and one of the newest hostess stamp sets called: Happiest Birthday Wishes. This set is very versatile. For colors, I used 2 inks, Island Indigo (new) and Melon Mambo.

Love this new DSP paper called: Flirtatious Specialty, it also comes with this laser cut doily as you can see in the photos above and below. Not only 1 doily, but 2 12x12 sheets of doilies to use. To get this look, I cut a 2" circle in Island Indigo cardstock and than applied it on top of the doily along with the different layers from the stamp set. Ribbon is 1/2" Blushing Bride Poly Ribbon.

Card Measures 5x5
