Good morning stampers! Today’s card uses a new stamp set in a completely different way, and the results are soft yet stunning. The majority of Pick a Pennant cards feature the main pennant image. I saw a card online that just used the stamps meant for the inside of a pennant, and stamped it repeatedly on a piece of Whisper White cardstock in three different colours. This Pick a Pennant Friendship card has a completely different feel to it.
The colour combination has two of the new Subtles colours, along with one of the returning subtles. I always thought that So Saffron was a light yellow, but it looks dark when paired with Soft Sea Foam and Petal Pink. The combination together is so pretty. You could change the sentiment on this card (or leave it as is) and it would be great for a baby shower. Change up the colours based on whether you know the gender of the baby.
Itty Bitty Greetings provides the sentiment for the card. Its fonts are trendy and current, and I like how some of them use two different fonts. I’m finding that font styles are changing so rapidly that it’s tough to keep up and stay current yourself. It won’t be long before I will need to update the fonts on my website and photos!
Adding “less than boring” circles with silver metallic thread and rhinestones grounds the card and makes it visually appealing. Or at least I hope it does! They certainly work well with the colour scheme, because silver goes with almost everything. You can find the entire product list for this card at the end of the post.
