Moving Forward..........CCPCC007

Hi everyone.  What a beautiful day it is here today.  A real sunny fall day with warm breezes and clear blue skies.  Wonderful! 

Today I want to share with you my entry for this week's Paper Craft Crew Card Challenge #007.  Like the day, I wanted something "bright and sunny" so I've used red, blue and yellow from the Brights Collection of Cardstocks to convey happiness and good cheer in my Thank you card.   Hope you like it.  Leave a comment if you do.

The card base is in Whisper White with a layer of Pacific Point that's been texturized with the Striped Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  A 2.5 x 3.5 rectangle of Real Red cardstock has been added.  It also was embossed using the Fancy Fan fold embossing folder.  The two flags are from the Polka Dots Parade Designer Paper Series

I've kept the inside of the card pretty basic, just adding a 1.5 x 5.25 strip of Pacific Point Cardstock to which I've adhered a 1/2 strip of Real Red Polka Dots Parade DSP.  The sentiment is from the Lacey and Lovely stamp set which I got for free at Convention this summer.

The little sail boat image is from the Moving Forward stamp set. It was coloured with markers - Daffodil Delight and Pacific Point and mounted with dimensionals on layers of Daffodil Delight and Pacific Blue cardstock circles. The beautiful bow is made with Real Red Gros Grain ribbon from Stampin Up and has a cluster of Jewelry tags tied on with Cherry Cobbler Butcher's Twine. The sentiment "thanks so much" is from the Tiny Tags stamp set.  

Moving Forward Stamp Set this 7 piece set comes in wood or clear mount and is Stampin' Ups! Ronald McDonald House Charity stamp of the year.  For every Moving Forward Stamp Set purchased, Stampin' Up! will donate $3.00 to the Ronald McDonald House charities.   Talk about a value added stamp set.  I love it!  Stay tuned for more cards with this set in the upcoming weeks.

Love this bright, cheerful card Penny. Can't go wrong using red to brighten things up. I have yet to ink up that stamp set - the images are so cute.
