DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #104: Holiday Invitation Autumn Accents

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  This week we're having a Home Sweet Home Challenge!

 

With today's beautiful inspiration photo, I just had to pull out the Autumn Accents Die.   Also - I've been itchin' to try a "curved banner greeting" and I think it was just the right touch for today's card.  I received a card from fellow demonstrator Brenda Spenger - which had a "curved banner" on it and totally fell in love with it!  Here's a closer look...

Curved Banner Greeting

• Oval Framelits (size 3 & 5 - when counting from smallest to largest)
• Center the small one inside the larger one and cut with Big Shot
• Then cut oval in half - the long way
• Stamp greeting on one half (position photopolymer stamp into curved shape on the clear block)
• Use the other half to create banner ends (I used the Banner Punch to create flagged ends by siding the oval strip into the punch "backwards")
• Assemble greeting banner with Gold Designer Buttons and Glue Dots

OK - as I am writing this, I definitely think I'll have to do a How'd She DO That? video.  Check back soon.
