Smile

 I bought this paper pack from a yard sale a few years back and I don't know if I have ever used it or not.  I loved the colors in these papers and tag, so I brought out a stamp set from one of my cardmaking magazines and tried to color it to match the papers. Then I fussy cut it out to add to the tag. I was hoping my coloring didn't blend with the paper too much so I popped up the flower head with some foam tape and glued the stem and leave directly to the tag.


  • Cardmaking magic - Climbing flowers stamp set, colored w/markers and fussy cut
  • Hot off the press - Bohemian Sarapapers and tag
  • Basic Grey - Brad
  • Tim Holtz - Remnant Rubs tiny text sentiment
  • Martha Stewart - Butterfly punch
  • Gems
  • EK Success circle punches out of gold paper

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today, hope you are staying warm, I look forward to next week we should be above freezing :)

This is the prettiest card, Connie, and your flower looks right at home! It appears as though it could be ephemera that came with the paper. Nice work matching it!
