You're My Hero

Day 3's sneak peek video features one of my favorite products from the Holiday Catalog: 

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using the annual Ronald McDonald House Stamp Set. This year's stamp set is called My Hero and contains some great little images.

For this card, I focused on the "You are My Hero" badge. While this image coordinates with the Best Badge Punch, unfortunately I don't own it. No matter! I could usually fussy cut this image. In fact, I cut it out and decided that the white background was too plain. So I mounted the badge on a piece of Dapper Denim Cardstock and fussy cut a slightly larger image to give some depth. From there I pulled some pattern paper in a blue and green color palette. Lately, I've been loving pattern mixing. For this card, I mixed a piece from the Moroccan DSP pack and a piece from the 2016-2018 In Color Enveloped Paper pack. The paper looked a bit plain so I added a strip of coordinating ribbon and some enamel shapes. Finally I wanted a bit of shine, so I finished the card off with a circle of silver foil to highlight the badge sentiment.
