Plaids

 Our Groups challenge for this month is Plaids. I had bought a plaid folder awhile back and have tried it out but never used it on a card yet, so I thought this was the perfect time to get it out and give it a try. The first two cards use the stencil for the background, using distress inks.


  • Spellbinders, Wendy Vecchi - Build A Plaid Stencil, using Gathered Twigs, Rustic Wilderness, Lumber Jack Plaid distress inks and gold pen
  • Spellbinders - Floral Die cut shapes
  • Starform - Merry Christmas stickers 

This next one I didn't use the brown ink like I did on the first plaid.

    Earlier today I had the feeling I should listen to Christmas music. Now you have made me think of it again!
