Sometimes the simplest ideas can create the splashiest patterns. The rows of half circles on this clean and simple card were inspired by the skirt from a Boden USA clothing catalog below. Like this card? Please leave me a comment at the end of this post!
- Flip a 1 3/8″ Circle Punch over (looking at it from the bottom), slide your card stock in halfway and crop to create the half circles. Instant bold graphics!
- Good news! The design is intended to be casual . . . so don’t sweat lining up the half circles perfectly.
- The Stampin’ Up! Mini Clothespin is quite the charmer. Mail it in one of our Padded Envelopes (116911) for a safe trip.
- The tiny heart on the sentiment was cropped using the Heart to Heart Punch and popped up on a bit of Stampin’ Dimensionals.
