Here is a card I made for my card club and am also sharing over at Heart 2 Heart.
This pretty card is a combination of a couple of other card ideas. Most of the inspiration comes from a card made by my friend Mary Gunn.
Sometimes it's fun to stamp your images right on the patterned paper which I did here. It can add a nice touch of texture to the overall look. Here I used the Bunches of Love stamp set (I can't get enough of this set!) and the October Stamp of the Month, Thanks and Giving. The flowers were stamped in Ballerina ink but then colored with the Sugarplum Shimmer Brush. Same was done for the leaves using Mint ink and the Mint Shimmer Brush. The fun plaid paper is from our new Seasons Mix-in paper pack. This is a variety of papers that will "mix-in" with any of our other paper packs! How fun is that!

I saw this on H2H and thought, did I enter this? hahaha
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked my card enough to take it and add your own cute touch!
Love how this looks on the soft pink plaid paper. I also like how you added the shimmer. Thank you for playing along with us at Heart 2 Heart.

I like the look of the stamping on plaid but never think of it; but maybe with my next card wherein I need to use plaid, in fact next Monday, I'm going to see if I can be that creative. Michelle thanks for joining us at Heart2Heart, wish to see you more often.
ReplyDeleteHa! VERY cute mixing in the bird house with this floral stamp image. CREATIVE! And yes, I agree on using that patterned paper looks GREAT!
