Hi everyone! I had a chance to put this card together for the sketch challenge over at The Paper Players in between loads of laundry today.I sorta went out of my color comfort zone with this one. I had the dandelions stamped up and sitting in my "to make" box and decided come hell or high water I was going to use it today. Then I had to search and destroy through my designer papers for something to work. Ya, easier said than done.
I ended up using the mesh die from Cherry Lynn to cut out a piece of kraft to go behind everything. Striped dp came from Fancy Pants, happy go lucky 6 x 6 paper pad. The I just grabbed a dark brown piece that matched the stripe to go behind. Wood self adhesive dots are from My Minds Eye.
Back to house work I go. Got stew in the crock pot and the smell is making my stomach growl, but it's one less thing I have to worry about today. Thanks for stopping by.
I think you did very well on matching up your papers. I recently found a stack of images that I had colored up and it is sometimes a challenge to put those images to the right card and papers. You did a great job.
ReplyDeleteWell all your hard work was worth it Laurie, I love this! In my book you can't go wrong with layers of neutrals plus white. Thanks so much for sharing with us this week at The Paper Players!
