You Picked Pool Party By a Pinch!

Stampin Up Congratulations Congrats Card Star Dies & Envelope By Mary Fish StampinUp

You definitely were feeling the Stampin’ Up! blues when voting for a “go to” blue on my most recent Stampin’ Pretty Reader’s Choice Poll.  Pool Party was your top pick with 269 votes, nudging out Night of Navy with 264 votes.  Here are the final results of the closed poll:

Final results.  This poll is closed.

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:

  • Pool Party is the “pop” on today’s card.  I used a Pool Party and Whisper White stripe pattern for the stars (cropped with the Stars Framelits Dies) and Envelope Liner (Envelope Liner Framelits Dies).

  • The Whisper White layer on top is the “negative” (open space) of the two die cut stars.  It’s “floating” on Stampin’ Dimensionals and the striped stars are attached to the Pool Party layer below.

  • I love the “cheers” die cut as a crisp contrast to the stripes and bold message for this college graduation card.

    Perfect!!!
    Hugs Frenchie
    Have a wonderful weekend ❤️

  3. Thanks Mary for offering us this opportunity to rate our favorite color. Even though mine didn’t come in as the result winner…..I’m loving the wining color. Think your card is BRILLIANT with all it’s detail.

    • Good suggestion, Donata . . . I’ll keep that in mind if we have another close poll!

  4. I love all the layers in this card! It’s so fun that the stars are farther back than some things, but on top of other things! So cool and original!

    • There were several blues not listed to keep the poll a little easier. However, thanks for leaving a comment!

  5. Hi Mary! Love the card as you did such a great job with the stars. It’s definitely an eye catcher and even more so with the addition of the candy dots. Thank you for sharing your many talents.

  6. Good morning, Mary. I love what you did with this card. It is so bright, fun and fresh. That is a new idea for me. Thanks for the inspiration. Have a great day.
