Oh this looks like a yummy cup of steaming cocoa. Love the loop-d-loops!!
ReplyDeleteAnother cool card, that around the page punch is just adorable too.... I just bought me a new punch and I have to go on you tube and get tips on it too...
ReplyDeleteLooks good. I just bought a Martha Stewart set from TJMaxx and need to practice using it so I can get the corners just right. May need to watch some videos too.

Ooh another yummy card! Cute Carri!
ReplyDeleteWow, looks good Carri! I've never bought one of those punch around the page deals. Always look at them and pass them by. Your loopy mat turned out great. Love your card!--Pat
ReplyDeleteYou did a wonderful job with the MS edge punch. I had to practice to get the hang of these sort of edge punches and still make mistakes. One thing to remember is that the paper hs to be a certain size for the punch to come out properly and lining it up is very important. Have a nice day.
