This is the last of my series of pennant parade cards made for the NEC event in November.
I added a piece of Holly Berry Bouquet designer series paper, some vintage ribbon and just a few rhinestones for some added bling.
I found the pennant parade stamp set so versatile and pretty cool to use, and now that we have the matching pennant punch it makes it really easy to make beautiful cards, whether for birthdays, invitations, Christmas, or any occasion you like! Love it!

More of my NEC sample cards, with the pennant parade and punch from Stampin Up.
I used a piece of designer series paper from the Holly Berry Bouquet series, and teamed it with icecream colours in pretty in pink, crumb cake and early espresso.
As well as the pennant punch, I also used the scallop circle and word window punches to create the icecream.
Another quick and easy card to make, but so effective.

For our recent trip to the NEC, we all made sample cards for the display to show off the gorgeous products from Stampin’ Up.
I focussed on using the pennant parade stamp set and matching punch …

I used the new in-colour inks in calypso coral, pool party and wisteria wonder to stamp the images,
then adhered these to a calypso coral card base.
This was a quick and easy card to do, that would be easy to produce lots of, so perfect for party invitations.

My friend, Sarah, turned 30 recently and I knew exactly what I wanted to do for her card. She has a bubbly and bright personality so I wanted her card to be the same, so I used calypso coral, one of the new in-colours from Stampin Up, for the card base, adding a strip of whisper white cardstock layered on top of a strip of colourful dsp from the new hostess range. I used my big shot die cutting machine to cut lots of different coloured number 30s, adhering them in a row to the whisper white strip. I tied a length of ribbon around the card and added a sentiment stamped onto whisper white cardstock and adhered with stampin’ dimensionals.
I love the way the card turned out – bright cheerful and just like Sarah herself!
All supplies from Stampin Up.
