SSINKspiration New Catalog Countdown Meets Paper Players Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge: Confetti Celebration

Whoo hoo, today's the day!  The new 2016-2017 Annual Catalog was released this morning and I'm so excited, there are lots of amazing new products just waiting for us and help make our creative ideas come to life.  Today over on the SSINKspiration blog it's the last day of the new catalog countdown and I decide to use the Paper Players Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge as inspiration to show off some of these great new products.  I decided to use Baker's Twine, Girly, and Die Cut items for today's card.

I started with Melon Mambo cardstock for the cardbase and then added layers of Basic Black and Whisper White cardstock.  On the Whisper White piece I started by using the Gorgeous Grunge and Timeless Textures stamps sets and stamp using Basic Black and Melon Mambo ink.  Next I added two pieces of washi tape from the new Pop of Pink Washi Tape set and then added a circle of designer series paper from the Pop of Pink Speciality Designer Series Paper using the 2" Circle Punch.

The stamped greeting is from the new Confetti Celebration stamp set (same set as I used yesterday) and it was stamped in Melon Mambo ink on Whisper White cardstock and it was cut out using Paper Snips and then attached to the cardfront with a dimensional.

Of course I love a little bling and to play of the gold in the washi tape I cut a star out of Gold Glimmer Paper using the Big Shot and Stars Collection Framelits.  The final touch was to add a bow using Basic Black Baker's Twine.

I love how black really makes the color pop on this card and it can make this a hip, girly card without lots of flowers and fuss!  Make sure to check out the other cards the design team is sharing for inspiration using new catalog items, I know I love to see them!
