Finally back at the drawing board with a challenge card after a long hiatus in all things creative due to a lovely summer chock full end to end. (even better I was able to join this challenge with my sister in law Judy) I chose this great little sketch from the Paper Players #407 because it is so simple and versatile. I liked it so much, indeed, that I created a batch of 4 out of this lovely designer paper by Graphic 45 called Joy Luck – Bird Song Collection. I even have enough left over in scrap that I can make even more cards to eat it ALL up! Have you ever challenged yourself to use a paper up in one fell swoop? I cut the Hello from my Die-namics diecut, layering it up for strength, and I glued it onto the bottom panel of my card, which I had “bumped up” using a thick foam tape.
Thanks for dropping by!
Oh yes, this is amazing paper! This design just loves pretty paper! I have never tried to use a whole sheet in one swoop - something to try. I like that you've resisted the urge to add anything aside from a stong, plain sentiment and let the paper do all the work. Thank you for joining us at The Paper Players this week.
