Happy 4th of July from Tiffany's Cardtique!I hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday weekend!
I will be back on Monday to kick off the week with some new products from the 2009-2010 Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog! I hope you dazzle (hint) you with my creation.
Have a wonderful day!
The window sheet on the wedding card I created today is from the current mini catalog expiring tomorrow, but rest assured - it's also available to order from the new catalog on July 1st! These Printed Window Sheets are perfect for overlays and photo frames. You'll see them again on this blog. Hee hee! Click HERE for my 4th of July card. Aren't they fun?!
I really enjoyed creating this card because I'm a big fan of black & white. The supply list will be provided at the end of the post.
I will fill you in on a few details about creating this card:
1) The sentiment in the scallop circle is from a new set in the 2009-2010 Stampin' Up! Catalog. It's called Teeny Tiny Wishes. There is nothing "Teeny" about how many stamps you get in this set or how much use you'll get out of it. It's a set of 24 with all the different holidays and occasions you can think of!
2) I outlined the little scallops with the fine tip end of the Basic Black marker.
3) I
cut a slit for the ribbon at the top of the card using a Hobby Blade. I punched a small circle at the top and bottom of the scallop circle. I thread the ribbon through the holes, folded them over, trimmed, and secured with a brad through the entire card front. This will hold the window sheet in place as well. No glue or tape marks - bonus!
4) I attached the entire black card on a piece of Whisper White cardstock as a base for the card. It really makes your card a little different from the rest when you add this type of background.
Just a reminder, you will be able to order from the new Stampin' Up! Catalog this Wednesday, July 1st after 12pm. Please be patient when ordering online. My site will be busy which slows things down a bit.
Have a great day!
Tiffany

My son and husband and have something very much in common - the love for their birthday! They both get that sparkle in their eyes when their birthday is approaching. My husband's birthday is July 2nd. I decided to make him a card this year with some sparkle and patriotic colors in honor of the 4th of July holiday. 
e blue is 4.50 x 3.25 inches. I stamped on the blue cardstock the "Celebrate"stamp, from the Matchbox Messages stamp set, in Whisper White Craft Ink. I attached the window sheet over the entire front of the card with the star brads and glued on the little rhinestones in the center of each star. They look like sparklers, don't they?
