This is my sample for SC734. Carey is our hostess and she gave us a great sketch to turn into a card.
The background paper is from the June 2018 Paper Pumpkin kit. They are actually card bases that I cut for designer paper.
My thanks phrase is cut in lovely lipstick cardstock. It's one of the new colors from Stampin'-Up. The chevron shapes are part of a CottageCutz house die. I cut those in lovely lipstick and lemon lime twist.
Scattered a few lemon-lime twist sequins to complete my card.

Your sequins are so cool going in the opposite direction of the arrows, Mary. The top dp shows your thankfulness and the bottom one works perfectly with the arrows~

Love your take on the sketch! The chevrons overlapping the black and white stripes look terrific! How clever to cut them with a die. I struggled hand doing mine. :-) I love the way the round sequins repeat the circles from the upper panel. Great card!

Striking and very cute. Love the color combo. The sequins are a nice touch and how you positioned them to mirror the chevron pieces is brilliant. Excellent card. TFS
