This post is very late today; I think it’s due to playing too much pool last night with my brother which meant I was slow to get out of bed this morning. We’re very lucky to have a pool table in the house, but I should’ve prepared this post before going to bed. Or before the pool! Anyway, here’s a card that I made at the recent crop using one of the sets that my sister brought with her, So You.

The set is retired now but it would definitely be possible to use one of the greetings thinlits for the word and many sets have stars for the background. I first stamped the sentiment in rich razzleberry first and then used the bigger star in pear pizzazz and the smaller in rich razzleberry and amazingly the first attempt had them spaced nicely. I think it’s important to have the stars falling off the edge of the very vanilla piece. I matted this with a piece of pear pizzazz before mounting it on a rich razzleberry card base. This card was very unusual in that it fell together, almost by itself, in no time flat. I often spend a lot of time playing until I find a card design that I’m happy with. I lined the envelope using the envelope liner framelits and the retired Backgrounds DSP.

See you tomorrow – hopefully a bit earlier than today!
