Party Puffins and Circles

Thanks for joining me today!  For this card I wanted to work with two new products by Stampin Up®.  

The Party Puffin Stamp Set and the Picture This Dies.  This is not a bundle but they go together great!  Stampin Up® has come out with several stand alone dies that can work with any of their numerous stamp sets.  

The neat thing about this card is that I was able to use the circle cutouts to make another card. (Watch for it later this month in my blog)

Here are the card cuts, instructions and supply:
