Happy Wednesday, peeps! The As You See It challenge from my friend Joanne is a speed challenge (keep it under 10 minutes) and she wants us to use punches!
I just got some new banner punches, and I had some scraps of Timeless Plaid that were 1" wide, so I gathered up my supplies and went to work:
I began with stamping a sentiment from the new Spring Corners on a Basic White card in Lost Lagoon ink.
Then I used the Happy Labels Pick a Punch to punch out my banners and layered them on my card. To embellish them I punched out a star using a small punch, then punched again around the opening with a larger punch to create an open star. I added a little matte dot and it was done!
Because I had most of my supplies at hand, it only took me 4 minutes and 16 seconds to whip this up! I think this will make a great masculine birthday card!
Yesterday was a pretty momentous day for our family; a few months ago Cassidy asked Wayne if he would adopt her and he said yes! So we all went to court for the adoption proceedings and everything went well!
The little person on Cassidy's left is the judge! She even had heels on and was shorter than Cassidy! She was very nice!
And with all the grandparents:
Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!
"But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship. Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, 'Abba, Father'. So you are no longer a slave, but God's child; and since you are his child, God has made you also an heir." Galatians 4:4-7

Hurray for Cassidy and Wayne! How wonderful! Love is that feeling of permanence, like when we are adopted by God at the time of Salvation! What a happy moment! God's blessings on all!
I love your card, LeAnne! Great masculine card using the punches for the challenge! WOW, Congrats to Wayne & Miss Cassidy on the adoption! That must be such a good feeling! Wayne is a super sweet guy and definitely loves his family! I'm so happy for all of you!
LeAnne, I'm not even sure that I have any punches! Wait - I do have that Martha Stewart butterfly trio! lol
I'm happy for Cassidy and Wayne - congratulations! and Dana: sounds like you picked a winner! Well done.

Your trio of plaid ticket banners are cute with the fun corner sentiment. This is terrific, LeAnne! Sweet photos of those happy faces. A special day indeed!
Your card is wonderful and gives me an idea to use that same punch, thank you very much! But the most wonderful thing is Cassidy's adoption by Wayne. Brings me to tears. Happy tears, of course! Just beautiful. I love the verse you chose also. Thanks for sharing.
What an amazing day for an amazing family! Blessings to all!
I am sitting here with tears of happiness streaming down my face. I am so happy for you all! LeAnne, I have been following you since before Cassidy was born! Thank you for including me and all your blog readers in your happy news! Many blessings to you all!
What a great punch and I love how you did the sentiment, LeAnne! I'm happy for Cassidy and Wayne as well as Dana! What a lovely family!
I love the unique choices you made here, LeAnne with the plaid banners at the bottom, the star and the top corner sentiment! I'm also so happy for Cassidy and her special day! Thanks for braving our speed challenge at As You See It!y!
Such a great way to use this punch, LeAnne! Such a fabulous design, too - and SO speedy! Thanks so much for playing at As You See It! (And HUGE congrats to the Fam - way to go!)
What a great card, LeAnne! So quick, yet so effective. Great use of the various punches too but it's that sweet corner sentiment that's the real star. Great news for Cassidy too - it seems only yesterday that she was a tot. Thanks for joining in with us again at As You See It.
Well this post just made me tear up - I am so happy for Cassidy and your beautiful family!
This is such a great design to use up co-ordinating scraps on those banners LeAnne - I can see it working in so many ways. Thanks for playing along with our speedy punch challenge over at As You See It this week! Congratulations too on Cassidy's special day - how wonderful!
