CCEE2019 - Fiesta!

Kelly is the hostess for the CCEE Stampers in May.  She started off the month by telling us that Tuesday was Cinco de Mayo.   She said, "Let's continue the celebration with anything fiesta!  The word fiesta, the colors (red, green, yellow), pinatas, sombreros, etc.  Feel free to simply create a celebration card."

I pulled out the Karen Burniston Rockin' Rectangle die and the llama die from Cottage Cutz to make my card.  I like the look of this type of card using a piece of heavyweight acetate for the front.  You get a peek at what's on the inside.


And you can see the festive banner across the top, starting on the outside and continuing onto the inside.  This was made using another Karen Burniston die -- one of the Border Blends. What's a fiesta without a sombrero?  So I added one to the cross piece.


Be sure to check out the CCEE Stampers blog for some more festive cards.

You and Lynn both added such fun festive banners to make your fiesta announcement and that llama looks like he might be a pinata and full of all kinds of treats to celebrate the fun! Great card, Lois!
