The challenge for the Twisted Sisters is: Make a THANK YOU card with your HIGH SCHOOL COLORS, must have DRY OR HEAT EMBOSSING and must have MUSIC on it. What a challenge! All are welcomed to play....come join along! Just put TSC1231 in your keywords to play.....
I did a lattice edged card and used the music ef with the Cuttlebug on the red panel. I backed the panel with white cs punched with an EK Success border. The senti is a Studio G clear $ stamp stamped on a SU! tag punch punched out on white cs. I added the ribbon, black oval, white and black MS branch punched leaves, primas, red half pearls and red stickles.
What do you think?

I'm so envious of you gals with your wonderful black/red/white school colours - they make such fantastic cards! Very pretty - love your lattice work. And look at all that punchin'!! Great card Kookzi. (My school colours are an 'in-your-face' green - think Glorious Green - and white. Far less elegant than b/r/w!) Happy New Year my Punchie Pal. Keep on dancing!

Hey, wait jest a durn minit, girlz, did y'all go to the same school, 'ceptin me and Shirt???? You woun't be makin' up your school colers now, would 'ja??
Funny how they all kinda "match", KWIM?? C'mon, be true to your school, now, Sissies!
Seriously now, Kookzi, this is some pretty fancy card making with the lattice folding down the side here! Pretty snazzy edge punch too behind the Music EF, and nice touch with the tiny pearl accents on the "peaks". Great job here and stuff we haven't seen lately - keeping us on our toes, GF!!
I think you made this card and THEN decided what the challenge was gonna be - jest you wait till me and Tate get you for paybacks!!
