I've never tried the "Featured Stamper" challenge at SplitCoast before, so I thought I'd give it a try. I looked through StampingPam's gallery and chose this card to copy.
I wanted to use my new Hattitude stamp set and Pam's layout was perfect to work with. I changed the colors of cardstock used and the stamp set, but I left the layout the same. I love the way the ribbon is threaded through the punched circles on either side of the card. After I tied my ribbon, the circles were still sticking out quite a bit from the card. I added a dimensional behind each circle and that helped hold it together a little better.
So...am I on the only one who likes this set? I went over to SplitCoast and my card is the only one in the whole Hattitude gallery!!! My little card is feeling all alone over there. If you have this set, would you please make a card or two with it and add it to the gallery? I would love to see more fun ways to use this set.
And for those of you who haven't tried the featured stamper challenges--you should. Having a layout done for you already makes stamping go so much faster. I was amazed at how quickly this card went together.
