I haven't stamped in about a month because I've been taking care of my parents after my dad's hip surgery. Mom & Dad are both back home now and I had a few minutes to make a card. The pennant punch was on my table and some pieces of retired SU designer paper so I grabbed my Pennant Parade stamp set and was off and running. Here is what I came up with.
It's a simple card and there is a small bloop above one of the hellos. Don't you just hate when that happens! Oh well. I used the stamp-a-majig to line up all the hellos but I find it difficult to use it with the acrylic blocks and clear stamps. I just don't get them lined up as well as with the wood blocks. I cheated a tiny bit and used non SU yellow/white Bakers twine but that's easy to change out. The card is also an odd size ( 3-1/2 x 6-1/4") because I wanted it to fit into a standard size envelope.
I can't wait to play some more with new stuff that has been sitting in a box for a month!!
