I was continuing my ruthless clean-out of my craft room, and when I reached into a photo box labeled "paper" I pulled out this gorgeous double-sided black and white patterned paper. Using a Nestabilities die, I framed my Copic-colored image onto black cardstock. The result? PLAIN!
So I fussy-cut from the other side of my pp a coordinating border, but the card still missed its mark. Adding a row of pearls and a stick pin for embellishment helped, but it wasn't until I used my white gel pen to hand draw patterns onto the background that it came together.
I added a charm to the image's bud vase, as well as a tiny bit of Stickles, to finish off my card.

ReplyDeleteI loved reading how you made this Pat. I never would have guessed that you hand drew on the paper! Whatever you did or should I say 'all you did' was perfect and your card looks amazing! Those cookies are calling to me too . . .
ReplyDeleteLove the color combination you used - so striking! The little charm you tied around the vase is the sweetest!
