Seeing Stars


Here's a card that I didn't get the chance to post over the weekend.  It fits several challenges over at SCS for their July 4 CAS Holiday Challenges.  There is still time to play along.  It also fits in for two other challenges this week - CAS-ual Fridays and Speedy the Cat's Friends.

I used Really Reasonable Ribbon for the stripes along the side of the card and then I embossed three stars using silver embossing powder on Kraft cardstock and then cut them out.  I popped the whole panel up on dimensionals.  A super simple card.






Products Used:
Stamp Sets - CTMH July Word Puzzle (retired) and Shining Star
Cardstock - PTI Kraft
Ink - PTI Dark Chocolate and PTI Tea Dye duo
Really Reasonable Ribbon June Club pack
Silver embossing powder
