The more and more stamping tools I own the more and more I decide that as long as I've got a decent idea before I start crafting it's really the tools and knowing how to use them that produces the best quality cards in the quickest time frame.
Today's card is a perfect example of how that works. Yesterday afternoon I was part of the Aspire Academy Band performance at St Andrew on the Terrace. I think it was our best performance yet and that couldn't have happened without our behind the scenes team who set it all up for us. I decided that I wanted to send a Thank you card yesterday evening and I had it made by 9:15am this morning. As our logistics manager lives around the corner from me it should be in his letterbox by 10am.
There were no pairs of scissors used in this card this morning. You've got to love Paper Cutters, Punches and especially the Big Shot and dies for making card cutting so accurate and so fast.
I used: -
Stamp Set - Because I Care, Music Notes Stampin' Around Wheel
Paper - Very Vanilla and Basic Black cardstock, Cork sheet from Bargain Store
Ink - Stazon Jet Black
Punch - Large Oval
Accessories - Big Shot & Blossom Party Die, Stampin' Sponge, Snail Adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals, Paper Cutter.
