All Occasion Cut Out Card for August Pals Hop

Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for August 2016.  We are thankful you stopped by to take a look at our new 2016 Blog Hop monthly themes.  This month we are featuring projects using our favorite Stampin’ Up! cutting tools. There are so many wonderful punches, framelits and edgelits available that help make papercrafting more detailed and fun! We hope to provide you with lots of ideas and that you enjoy our creations.

You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the Line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below.  The full lineup will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects.

I wanted to combine punching and die-cutting, so my cutting tools on this Thoughtful Branches card were the Beautiful Branches Thinlits and Bunch of along with the Classic Label Punch. 

One thing I really like doing is finding just the right Designer Series paper to use with punching or die-cutting. This tiny print from Affectionately Yours works so well as the leaves on my tree! And those bitty birds perfectly hang my sentiment cut using the Classic Label Punch.

Thanks for visiting. To continue with the hop, please refer to the Blog Hop Line-up below. We hope to see you on next month’s Pals Blog Hop!
