Yesterday was a BIG DAY – the Online Exclusives released yesterday are AMAZING. If you haven’t checked them out yet, I hope you’ll take a look at yesterday’s post (click here).
With all the wonderful products in the Online Exclusives, there are two returning favorites I failed to mention yesterday – for a limited time (that I can’t define – is it a week or a month or a year?), Stampin’ Up! is selling two circle punches. I couldn’t be more excited! The 1-3/4″ Circle Punch and 2″ Circle Punch are in the online store (links below), so I used them to create this sweet-and-simple card:
With my 1-3/4″ Circle Punch and 2″ Circle Punch (I never got rid of mine because circle punches are one of our greatest friends in the craft room), I cropped four circles from the new Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and layered them together on a card front. I added a sentiment (also punched with the 1-3/4″ Circle Punch) and some bling. Simple!
Here’s a look at the 1-3/4″ Circle Punch (click on the photo to see it in my online store):
And here’s a look at the 2″ Circle Punch (click on the photo to see it in my online store):
How fun to have these old friends back (for now)! If you don’t have circle punches (or these sizes), I’d suggest taking Stampin’ Up! on this offer they’ve made. ♥
Here’s a closer look at the sentiment on my card:
The sentiment on my card is stamped with the Irresistible Blooms stamp set and layered over circles from the softest patterns of the Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in this gorgeous pack of papers:
Stamps: Irresistible Blooms Papers: Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper; Crumb Cake, Thick Basic White Inks: Crumb Cake Accessories: 2″ Circle Punch, 1-3/4″ Circle Punch, Pastel Self-Adhesive Sequins, Simply Elegant Trim, Stampin’ Dimensionals

Love how you highlighted the patterns of the pretty paper!
Thanks, Mary! There are so many beautiful sections of this piece of paper – it was easy to find beautiful patterns that worked well together.
What an awesomely simple card that made me go “WOW”! Love your eye for putting patterned paper into such a pretty arrangement. And, yes, circle punches are a staple in my art stuff, too. Basics are often the best!
Thanks so much for your comments! I’m so happy you like the card I made to share. ♥
Good morning, Brian!
What a simply lovely design using the circle punches. I love your soft color choices as well. Have a great day!
Thanks so much, Suzie! I love my circle punches, and they made it so easy to showcase this beautiful paper. Hope your day has been wonderful! ♥
Easy and elegant, who doesn’t love that? Love this beautiful DSP. Enjoy your day!
Thanks so much, Hilda! Hope your day is great! ♥
Cute card and great way to show off circle punches!
Thanks, Windy! I’m so happy to have these punches – just peeled the “retired” stickers off of them. 😀
Love the card, Brian! I, too, Did Not get rid of my circle punches. (I very rarely get rid of anything!) So happy to have had the foresight to keep them. Who’d of thunk?!
I’m happy to see them back – even if for just a short time. I was happy to use them on this simple card. You were smart to not rid of them. ♥
