Punch Potpourri Best Wishes


A simple post tonight.  This card uses the Punch Potpourri stamp set which is available as a hostess set only.  Each of the stamps has a matching punch.  Super easy! 

On this card I've used basic black as the card blank.  A swatch of real red with a strip of whisper white for the background.  I stamped the heart in real red on whisper white and punched it out.  This was then attached over the white strip.  The bird is actually stamped in versamark then heat embossed with black embossing powder and punched out.  I popped up the bird with a dimensional.  The sentiment is Best Wishes from Silhouette Sentiments and was also stamped with versamark and then black embossed.  

I'd like to enter this as my second card for less is more. Thanks to everyone who takes the time to comment.  I love this challenge blog, everyone is so friendly and there's loads of inspiration.  See you next time. x

    I've seen lots of cards made with this beautiful set Aileen but I've never seen it used with these kind of bold colours - and it looks great!
