STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:

  • Stampin up pals paper arts basic rhinestone jewels button Simple punched circles (3/4") give this holiday card a modern twist.
  • The pattern on the bird is a combination of VersaMark and the Punch Potpourri stamp set (Hostess Level 1)
  • I popped out a Rich Razzleberry 1/2" circle (fits perfectly in the Big Designer Button) and layered a pattern of Basic Rhinestone jewels on top.
  • A lone rhinestone dots the bird's wing and plays up the sparkle of the button.
