My card today uses the new Pierced Circle Elle-ments dies along with an older Avery Elle stamp set, Oh Happy Day.
When, I first saw, these Pierced Circle dies, I immediately thought of an archery target and that was my springboard for my card. I felt like I needed to get this card out of my system before I snip apart these dies for other uses! :)
First, I die cut the pierced circle dies onto a panel of white card stock. Next, I embossed the sentiment from the Oh Happy Day stamp set with gold embossing powder.
The glitter vellum arrow is from Crate Paper's Journey collection, and I added a few enamel dots and some pretty gold stripe washi to the panel to keep it from looking too plain. Finally, I adhered the completed panel to a kraft note card from the Natural Collection A2 folded cards.
Your next stop on the hop, is the lovely and talented AJ Otto. Below is a list of all the designers participating in the hop:
