My second sketch inspired card was inspired by my favourite challenge site
Friday Mash Up but I only used the stitching part of the challenge as in Australia we are headed toward the end of the school year! The colour came from
Just Add Ink which was White and one other colour, and finally the sketch came from
Utah Divas Saturday Sketch.
I made this card for a friend who has recently had a beautiful baby girl, and I knew when I got my hands on the new Stocking Punch that is going to be available for Australia and New Zealand customers from 1st October. One of the benefits of being a demonstrator for Stampin' Up! is that you get sneak peeks, and pre-order for promotions, how good is that! While the traditional use for the punch is for Christmas, I have turned it into a pair of pretty pink booties.
The idea for the Modern Label Punch came from Donna over at
Butternut Sage Designs, isn't it cool! The mechanism of the punch is to cut from the outside so you just have to punch carefully and stop after it has cut only part of the shape. Then slide a strip of ribbon under and there you have it, a cute little accent for your card.
Happy Stamping
