Today’s share is a fun and relatively quick card using the new 2 3/8″ Circle Punch and the new Circle Sayings stamp set. I love that we have circle punches again (three sizes now available!).
The pretty seashell image from the Circle Sayings pairs nicely with the watercolored printed paper from the Hello, Irresistible paper pack. I quite like these two particular prints.
I’ve watercolored the seashells, in keeping with the look and feel of the printed paper. Plus, nautical images theme nicely with watercoloring.
This color was my first attempt, and initially, it was too much of all the same colors. I added some of the new Wild Wheat ink to the images to help them stand out a bit more. I like the effect! I’m liking the Wild Wheat more and more as I use it.
It’s very quick and easy to create this window feature with the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch. I like the top layer to be on dimensionals to emphasize it’s a cut out circle, rather than a circular layer placed on top. It’s an easy way to add dimension and interest to a simple card.
As a side note, I hardly make a project without Dimensionals. I feel they are such an easy and inexpensive way to create layers and interest to your project. They are a must!

And I hope you enjoy this short video showcasing this quick card template with the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch. I had fun creating the samples for this one.
