New Product Card Class - Forever Young

Hi everyone,

I have a five posts over the coming days to show you the cards we made at my last class.

I wanted to showcase some of the new products so used the Pennant Parade stamp set and Pennant Builder Punch, along with Forever Young, Parlour Prints, Button Buddies and the wonderful new Lace Border Punch.  Of course there were some of the new In Colours and DSP thrown in for good measure!

This first card is one I CAS'd as I simply loved it when I received one in an online swap.  It was designed by Michelle Bryant over at Michelles Crafty Paper

I kept with the same design and stamp set, but changed up the colours.  The one I received was made with Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black and Very Vanilla, I decided to go with a colour I hardly ever use - Cajun Craze, along with Basic Gray and Confetti Cream. 

It's a center step card, which once you have the measurements and a handle on the cutting and scoring, is actually really easy to create. 

The side panels were stamped with Parlour Prints in Basic Gray, using some scrap paper to mask off the surrounding areas.  Then the center panel was layered with Basic Gray and Confetti Cream and stamped with the tree image from Forever Young.  The sentiment is from Petite Pairs.

The beautiful border across the bottom is the new Lace Border Punch, and the medium sized Basic Rhinestones fit right in the centers.

I will definitely be picking up Cajun Craze again as I've fallen in love with it's warmth and depth :o)

Thanks for dropping by - check back for the other four cards during the week!
