Have you seen the new Petite Curly Label punch?  It is the cutest and coordinates perfectly with the Pretty Petites stamp set from Sale-A-Bration and also with the Ciao, Baby! stamp set from the Spring Catalog.   I really love this cute little punch and I have another Creation for this weeks challenge from Create with Connie & Mary .

This week is a new sketch challenge – and I have to admit – I was not very excited about this one.  But I got through it and came up with a cute little card.

Trying to decide what to do with this sketch – I kept coming to the little Petite Curly Label punch.  For the little sections I decide to use the Curly Label punch and use half pieces on the side.  Here it is –

Here are some details on this card –

• card base is Summer Starfruit – 4-1/4″ square
• emboss with the Needlepoint Border Textured Impressions Folder
• Punch with the Curly Label punch from the Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Stack – punch 4 and cut 2 in half
• Stamp images from the Pretty Petites stamp set – I used Raspberry Ripple and Summer Starfruit
• Punch out with the Petite Curly Label punch and also punch some from coordinating card stock  – turn the card stock punches in the opposite direction and glue behind the stamped ones – see how it creates a little frame on the top and bottom
• Punch a flower using the Itty Bitty Shapes punch pack.  Crumple and add a mini silver brad to the center
• Add the flower to the frame image.
• Ta-da!

So what do you think?  It turned out pretty cute – didn’t it.  The stamp set and the punch are both available during Sale-A-Bration for free with a qualifying order.  But in case you can’t get both or you have lots of others that you want – the punch will be available for sale after Sale-A-Bration ends.

Visit the Create with Connie & Mary site to see the creations from the rest of the design team and to submit your own creation for this new challenge.  I hope you will play along with us this week – I’d love to see what you do with this sketch.
