Simple Circles

I met the challenges CAS19 and CC223 on Splitcoast Stampers!  This Clean and Simple design meets Color Challenge colors Baja Breeze, Ruby Red and Whisper White and makes the perfect birthday card for any age, any gender.  Ruby Red card base measures 5.25 x 5.25 and is topped with circles stamped in Ruby Red onto Whisper White, then matted with textured Baja Breeze.  My very last piece of Baja Breeze striped grossgrain holds one more circle and the sentiment from the Mark the Date stamp set on Whisper White, punched and matted using Stampin' Up's Tag punches. This card came together very fast!  Baja Breeze is one of Stampin' Up's retiring colors, so if you would like to order ink, paper, ribbon or the CUTE corduroy buttons from the mini catalog, you have until June 30th, which is right around the corner!

Baja Breeze Classic Stampin' Pad   111833  5.95
Baja Breeze Corduroy Buttons        114344  9.95
Baja Breeze Double-Stitched Ribbon   111847   8.95
Remember, all of the '08-'09 In Colors are retiring along with Baja Breeze.  Order yours now!

Once again, you are so creative! I love this clean and simple design, especially the tag! (I still have 8sheets of 12 x 12 Baja Breeze paper and an entire spool of the striped ribbon left...Not that I am hording it or anything!) Excellent, classy card!

My set arrived this week. This card is a slam dunk. I love the simple pattern and how you continued it on the tag! Wow.

Hugs,
