We are seriously going to hear about wind chills for the next two days. This is way to early for this! So I have a dual purpose for this cute card! First, it is cold and time to break out the sweaters in Iowa and second, this is our school colors and time for post season tournaments. My niece is on the volleyball team and they are playing Monday night so I thought this was a perfect combination and dual purpose and I just wanted to play with the fun set perhaps! Isn’t the sweater just the cutest! This card features some of my favorite products these days. The Cottage Gingham DSP and of course my Stitched Stylish Shapes Die Cuts! I can’t seem to make a card without them these days! I just love these die cuts and the detail they feature, and the DSP in the Cottage Gingham pack is so much fun! If you have been clothes shopping lately you will see plaid everywhere! So of course you want your cards to be in style too, right? Not to mention this 12×12 DSP is perfect for scrapbooking too! It will make amazing borders or background papers! I love our stampin up DSP! Double sided and just perfect weight to work with paired with our card stock and you have amazing cards and all our products are made to coordinate beautifully! I love Stampin Up products and love to create with them. This cold weather will drive me to my paper cave and I won’t want to leave anytime soon!
Fussy Cut the sweater and pennants then color in with the Stampin Blends.Basic Grey Cardstock 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and scored at 4 1/4″ with your paper trimmer. Real Red cut 4″ x 5 1/4″ and Grey Cottage DSP cut to 3 3/4″ x 5″. Adhere and layer all 3 as shown. Next Die cut a vellum Stitched Stylish Circle. Adhere that with Stampin Seal on the center of your card. Be sure to place where the sweater will cover. Stamp the cardigan and pennants in Memento Basic Black and color in with the Stampin Blends. Fussy cut out all three with your Paper Snips. Die cut a label from the Stitched Stylish Shapes with a scrap piece of Basic White. Put Dimensionals on the back of the sweater and the pennants. Place them on the vellum circle and then add the Stamped Stitched Label with Dimensionals. Using your Take Your Pick Tool place the Black Matte Dots on the card front.
