It's time for another challenge over at
Shopping Our Stash! This week we ask you to
use three or more patterned papers on your card. This is a PERFECT challenge for using up scraps (er, remnants) of all those pretty papers you are hoarding. Yes, I'm talking to YOU! I include myself in this accusation, as I
do hoard pretty papers; I'm good at it. Too bad it 's not a marketable skill.
Here's my card:
I followed this sketch from
Skipping Stones Designs:
All my papers are from the Basic Grey PB&J 6x6 pad. Sentiment is from the SSD Grunge set. Rolled flower was cut with an MFT die. Pearls are all SU. My "scallops" are left-over suede-paper Quatrefoils from making
this background on my Silhouette. I have a pile of them on my desk:
Here's that handsome rolled flower, up close and personal:
I filled the flower's center with Glossy Accents to hold that large pearl, and it took about 2 hours to dry. ;/
Now it's YOUR turn. Go into your stash, find some patterned paper (at least three of them), make a card with them, then come pack to
Shopping Our Stash and link us up so we can see what you've made!
Thanks for stopping by!

Clever way to make a scalloped border! And your rolled flower is divine!
ReplyDeleteI love the border using leftovers, what a great idea. I have been fiddling with my Silhouette today, but don't have any leftovers large enough to do anything with yet.
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad hoarding paper isn't a marketable skill, we'd all be masters at it :)
ReplyDeleteLove this & the flower is gorgeous! Love the layers.
Hi Leslie! Thought I'd pop over to your blog. Thanks for visiting mine. I'm impressed that you used those leftovers from a Silhouette cut for your scallops. Great idea for a pretty card! (I took the A Cut Above class too, and I need to finish some of those lessons as well. I don't think I'll ever catch up!)
