My card also showcases 4 of the 5 new In Colors from the 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog. Stampin' Up! has a wonderful color pallet and a variety of accessories that color coordinate, so it's easy to put together a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item such as a decorated box or treat bag.
Notice the cross-stitch on the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border; my favorite way to use this punch! I just sewed up one side diagonally and came back down the other. For the white scallop trim, I punched another strip, cut it in half length-wise and adhered it to either side of the Island Indigo piece. I makes a cute little trim peeking out.

Renae, LOVE the cupcakes on the pennants. Such a perfect idea for the theme of the card. Love the color choices. Aren't the new In-Colors the best? All the accents are perfect, the stitching is a neat addition. Thank you for joining us at Hand Stamped Sentiments.
