New Colours

I can't believe that it's less than a week now, until the new Stampin' Up! catalogue goes live in the UK! The year since the last one seems to have gone so fast. So I thought I'd show you a little sneak peek of the new In-Colors - all five of them on this card. Also a tiny bit of a new punch is in there - the idea pinched from a display sample I saw at an SU training meeting. Not the usual use for that punch, but quite nifty!

Each strip of card has had the bottom corners rounded with the Corner Rounder punch, and then was embossed with the Perfect Polka Dots folder. The little centre piece punched out of the larger design of the new punch was added to the end of the strip of card, with a pearl to finish.

Just a little bit of scoring on either side of the greeting to finish off. Quick and easy card!

Such a good idea. I would not have thought about the separate strips. Very nice effect.

Ooooh, what a fab idea! After seeing this card I just had to dash upstairs and get out my border punch and play! Love this card design and it showcases the new colours perfectly!
