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.
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.
Thanks for stopping by and as always . . .


Beautiful cards and lots of them! You’ve been busy!
ReplyDeletePretty paper for your first card, the flowers on the sentiment panel are very nice touch. Wow you did make a lot of them for your box :). Pretty vintage feel with the image and papers that compliment it nicely!
ReplyDeleteWow, you were definitely on a roll. Your paper project is one of my most fun things to do. I can see how beautiful they're all going to be with their color coordinated sentiment panels. Your first appears as though the paper and stamped flowers came from the same set. So pretty! And talk about pretty, your second card is gorgeous and also perfectly coordinated. You have a knack for that!
