Banner Blast


Hi Stampers, I wanted to share another swap card I received at the workshop this past week.  The creator of this card is Beth R.  I have the Banner Blast set from the Sale-A-Bration catalog but had not used it.  This makes me want to pull it out and create.  In the new catalog there will be a set called  Banner Banter that will make a good substitute for the one that was in the Sale-A-Bration catalog that is no longer current.  The punch is also available in the new catalog that will go live June 2nd.  I hope you all are getting as excited as I am about the new catalog, and those of you that have received the new catalog are making a wish list.  Mine is 4 pages long so far. Crumb Cake card stock was used for the regular A2 base card.  Crushed Curry is the bottom layer with sponged edges using Crumb Cake ink.  Pool Party was used for the top layer and was stamped with the Hardwood stamp using Crumb Cake ink and the edges sponged with Crumb Cake ink. Whisper White Twine was used to make the clothesline.  The Banners are from the stamp set Banner Blast that was also in the Sale-A-Bration catalog (not current), but in the new catalog there is a set called Banner Banter (w-134057, c-134060) that will do a card like this one. Each Banner was stamped with a different ink  on Crumb Cake card stock and punched out with the Banner punch ( in new catalog).  The ribbon at the bottom of the card is burlap and some of the threads were pulled to give it the open weave look.  The sentiment is stamped on Crumb Cake card stock with Old Olive ink and edges have been sponged with Crumb Cake ink. It is from the Sale-A-Bration catalog no longer current called See Ya  Later  The sentiment is also stamped lightly with a stamp from Gorgeous Grunge stamp set. Hope you take the time to make some.  Cute! Cute! Cute!  Stampin' Up supplies used:  Card stock:  Crumb Cake 120953, Crushed Curry 131173, Pool Party 122924.

I hope I have made sense and you enjoy making your own.
