Love Those Pretty Papers June 2026 Challenge

Hello Dear Friends

It's a new month and that means it's time for a new challenge over on our
LOVE THOSE PRETTY PAPERS blog.

Today, our OPTIONAL theme is

PASTELS

 Diane & I will be sharing a Themed pretty paper card as well as an Anything Goes card.

 Here's my card using today's THEME:

 Using OLD 12x12 designer papers as well as scraps of white card stock for the sentiment panel.  
The sentiment comes from a Simon Says stamp set and I accented the panel with a smaller stamp from the same set and TH distress oxide ink.
I like how adding the little flowers in the corners really added a little 'something' to the otherwise stark panel.  What do you think?

 A 12 x 12 sheet of designer paper will make six A2 size cards so that's what I did then divided them into packs of 3 for my sale boxes.   

I was on a roll so I went through and selected sheets that I've had sitting around for a very long time and made a variety of cards.  Then I decided which ones to use for my four 'card set' categories ... thank you, thinking of you, just a note & sympathy.

 

 

Now for my 2nd card (anything goes) ...  

 

I've had this background paper (the Paper Studio Kirby Teesdale Studio) in my stash for years as well as this image (no idea at this point where it came from ... was hanging on my accessory wall).   The 'wood' panel was in my scrap pile and the sentiment is a Tutti Designs die set.

 

I hope you've enjoyed what I created to inspire you today!  Please come join our fun and show us what you have created using pretty patterned papers.

Thanks for stopping by and as always . . .
