I just watched a video on how to use this Martha Stewart garden trellis punch. It is from Becca Feeken. I really liked her card so I used it as inspiration for mine as well.
This is a 6 x 6 square card. Don't usually make mine that big but the lattice layer ended up being a 5 1/2" square.
I cut the lattice in lovely lilac card stock. My base color is early espresso and the layering color is pear pizzazz. I used GreenHouse Gala designer paper from Stampin-Up.
My sentiment is using the Great Impressions Stamps "warmth and love"- D388. I cut a Spellbinders labels 16 die as a frame for the sentiment.
To finish up my card, I embossed the smaller pear pizzazz panel with the elegant lines folder from Stampin-Up. Added some pearls, lace and pear pizzazz seam binding.
Happy Birthday Joan!
