Today's card features a very sophisticated designer paper from the Holiday Mini Catalog called Night and Day Specialty Designer Series Paper. Basing my card on this week's Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge (SC261), I added Night and Day to the top right corner, opposite Basic Black Textured card stock on the bottom left.
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
The Asian Artistry hostess stamp set is one of my favorites. You can earn it free with a qualifying order. On-line orders qualify for hostess rewards, too! CLICK for details on the Stampin' Up! Hostess Rewards Program.- Paper piercing and sponging add interest to a single layer focal point.
- Dragonfly images on the envelope flap make this a snappy coordinating set.
- The Chit Chat Rub-On sentiment is crisp, easy to apply and adheres evenly to textured card stock.
