Good evening everyone! I'm in for a quick post to participate in K.Werner's Color Challenge. Not feeling too chatty tonight, but that's probably because I'm working on tomorrow's post. Tomorrow is our wedding annivesary, so please be sure to stop back through for a special posting full of pictures, stories, and even a video!

To make this card:

1. Make card base by trimming cardstock to 4.25" x 11", then score at 5.5".
2. Trim patter paper to fit inside of the card base.
3. Trim orange cardstock the same width as pattern paper and about 2.5" then punch with scallop edge punch.
   
4. Adhere orange cardstock to patter paper and ink around the edges.
5. Stitch around the edges of the pattern paper.
6. Tie yellow ribbon around focal point.
7. Die cut start out of felt using cuttlebug. Ink around the edges.
8. Stamp sentiment on purple cardstock, then apply clear embossing powder and heat.
9. Die cut the sentiment using circle nestabilities.
10. Adhere star on top of ribbon, then pop sentiment off of it.
