Dashing Duo


Beate posted her weekend sketch challenge. You can see it here. For the card I used a 6 x 6 piece of River Rock card stock folded in half to make a 3 x 6 card. The designer paper is Stampin' Up!'s Dashing paper. I punched out the the star in More Mustard, dabbed it in Versamark and embossed with Hologram Highlighs. The greeting at the bottom has an olive brad from the rhinestone ice collection. I decided to make a matching tin. I had purchased a candle tin from Michaels. I covered it with the dashing paper, the Merry Christmas from the Party Punch stamp set and 2 flowers punched from the 5 petal punch. The ribbon is from the Fairy tale Ribbon collection.

Here are the rest of the details:
Stamps: Perfect Presentation(Level 2 hostess set), Party Punch(Level 1 hostess set)
Ink: River Rock, Old Olive
Paper: River Rock, Old Olive, Real Red, Dashing designer paper, Very Vanilla
Other: Ice circle rhinestone brads, stampin' dimensionals, star punch, circle punch, coluzzle, label punch
