Five for All made it on to my wish list from my first peek at the current catalog. Who doesn't need more humorous birthday sentiments, right?
- I pulled it out today to play with today's color challenge at Splitcoaststampers. The colors are Basic Gray, Bermuda Bay and Lemon Lime Twist. Obviously I added white as a neutral. "Dessert" for this Challenge was birthday so voila!
- I wanted to repeat the dots in "25" so I pulled out a skinny border thinlet from the Swirly Snowflake Thinlet Dies that I included on my Holiday Catalog pre-order.
- I've seen this stitched frame idea around and thought I needed to try it myself. I layered two frames for texture.
- It might me overkill on the texture but I thought why not add some more dots/stitches to my Lemon Lime Twist layer by running it through the Big Shot with the Quilt Top Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, another goodie from my preorder.
- The scallop behind my Basic Gray frame is from the Layering Circles framelits.
- This is another one of the cards I did for the Dare to Get Dirty challenges. I cheated a little because we were supposed to piece together DSP scraps and then die cut them. I didn't cut into brand new sheets of dsp since I'd made several cards with this DSP already. I like how this created kind of an awning look.
- I measured the scallop width from the Seasonal Layers Thinlets and cut some bigger scraps down to fit the die. You will need scant 1 1/8" strips to line up with this scallop die.
- The ink is Night of Navy.
- The ribbon is Whisper White 3/8" Classic Weave.
