Our group got together again this month for another card making session. This time we were supposed to pick out colored cardstock, and a pattern paper piece that wasn't too busy, we tore that piece and added it to the middle of the cardstock piece. Then we gathered our small stamps, I am thinking I used at least 3 or 4 stamps on each one. We stamped all around the edge, over lapping onto the pattern paper. Then it was up to us what else we wanted to add to the card. I made 4 backgrounds but only made two of them into cards, both for birthdays I have coming up.
- 49 and Market - Bird song stamps for stamping around the edges and bird sitting on
- Simon says stamps - Songbird die
- Fiskars scissors - to cut out definition
- Poppystamps - Lovely sprig tendril die
- Stamperia - Secret Diary stamps
- Paper Studio - Ephemera
- Fiskars - Essential Sayings sentiment stamp
The tag on the ephemera piece was blank so I could add my own sentiment, I used two from the set.
I thought this was a neat way to use some of those smaller stamps we have in our stash, and some of the scraps of pattern paper too :)
Yesterday was above freezing and today also, tomorrow below again but I will take these couple of warmer days :)
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
Connie
