  • Love the sweet loops on the corners of my tag?  They were a snap to produce with the Stampin’ Up! Curvy Corner  Trio Punch.  It also crops a double scallop corner and ribbon slot!

  • Pretty paper sets the stage.  I used one of the fresh, fall patterns from Into the Woods Designer Series Paper for the pillow box.
