Hello! I feel like it's been forever since I've posted anything. I've been pulled in many directions lately and on top of that, I'm sick. Anyway, I finally got a few moments of solitude to play around with some new stamps. This card uses Papertrey's Background Basics: Text Style stamps. I used the Mojo Monday Sketch, which I tweeked a tiny bit.
I'm also participating in a new challenge at the Embellish Magazine Blog. This challenge was to use the colors blue, green, yellow, and red and you also had to use brads. Well, I don't own any colored brads, so I made some "faux brads" out of small punched circles. You can see them as the butterfly centers. Well, thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today!

Stamps: Background Basics: Text Style (Papertrey Ink)

really like this card-I thought you created your own background with text-nice stamp-alss like the faux brads-I do that a lot on cards when I don't have a matching brad.
ReplyDeletehope you are feeling better
This card is absolutely gorgeous! You did an excellent job with the embellish magazine challenge!
ReplyDeleteDana You did an awesome job on this card. The colors look great, I love the way you used Papertrey's background stamps. I've been deciding to get them, I think I will now. I too use punches to make my brads. Thanks for sharing. Hope you feel better soon. Don't forget lots of chicken soup, hot tea & honey also Oil of Oregano really helps with sore throat, cough and colds. I gave it to my husband 'cause he was coming down with something and he was better in a few days. A couple of drops under the tough does the trick. Tastes "Ucky" but really works really good. Feel better. Love your blog. *** Judy
