TCM (The Craft's Meow) Sneak Peak - It's a Banner Day

Welcome to day 3 of The Craft's Meow Sneak Peak previews! The stamp set today is called It's a Banner Day again by the super talented Nina B Designs! Oh the possibilities with this set are endless. I can't wait to see what all the other design team members came up with either! I think that one of the biggest challenges for me is coming up with masculine cards.


This was really one of my simpler cards for this release. I really made this for my Father in Law for Father's Day. The stamp sets came in just as I was struggling with how to make his card. I looked at this set and there it was! I stamped the letters in 3 of the banner pieces, cut them out and hung them on some brown twine. I then dug out one of the TCM stamp sets from last month called Timeless Tags for the sentiment. There were a lot of brass brads used for this card and the paper was from Basic Grey called Life of the Party. Simple but it gets the message across! 

Be sure to click on the other design team for some more amazing creations:
 
What would new release festivities be without chances to win prizes? Yep, once again, we'll draw THREE of you to win Life is a Carnival... one from each of three of the design team and friends blogs. You'll have until 10:00 pm Pacific tonight to make the rounds and leave comments. We'll announce the winners in tomorrow's post. Enjoy and good luck!!! 

This stamp set and more will only be available at The Craft's Meow Shop on July 1! 

Thanks for looking and don't forget to come back tomorrow for another sneak peek!
