ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS:

• The Scallop Oval Punch was designed to coordinate with both the Small and Large Oval Punches for flawless layering! The word "joy" is shown here with the Large Oval Punch.
• Jeanne showed a fabulous example of how you don't always have to watercolor to get such a richly colored image! She used Stampin' Write Markers and it came out beautifully. I love how bold the colors are.
• Sponging is a fabulous way to add a bit of extra somethin' somethin' to any project — the sponging done on this card really takes it to the next level!
• Ribbon doesn't always have to have a knot or bow attached to it – here, it's simply used as another layer. So for those of you who curse ribbon tying – no worries, it doesn't mean you have to do without!
