I needed to make cards to welcome new recruits to our team and to congratulate the high-achievers for their sales and promotions. I wasn't sure what to make and then I stumbled unto Dawn McVey's blog and found THIS post. Bingo! I was instantly inspired to try out my own Stampin' Up! version of it.
The flowers were cut out of the First Edition designer paper (Occasions Mini) with the Petal Party die and I decorated the middle with a stamped button. To make this accent, I stamped an image from the Button Button set (also from the mini) in Versamark, embossed it in clear powder and punched it out with a circle punch.
The patterned papers all come from the Bright Designer Paper pack and I stamped a sentiment from the Curly Cute set. The scallop trim is a strip of Crumb Cake cardstock punched with the Scallop Edge border punch. I managed to create 20 of those cards in under two hours. Pretty good, huh!
