I am so excited and honored to be the guest designer this month for:
The Paper Girls Challenge #88 Sept 21 - Sweater Weather
Who’s ready for sweater weather? I love this time of year when the leaves are changing, the air is getting cooler, pumpkin is everywhere, and you start seeing the patterns of the season. And we have a lot of Fall birthdays in my family, so you will see a lot of birthday cards in the coming months. This week I was inspired by the plaid sweaters you see this time of year and created this card with my sister, Tami, with NO stamping. None!
I know, right? We were stunned too! LOL
We started with a red card base and a square punch (one inch or 1.5").
And punched out our squares from three different pattern papers from the same coordinating 6x6 pad: green, brown, and plaid. Then ran them through the Xyron sticker maker, cut the squares in half, and adhered them to another square. Layered the squares in a pinwheel quilt pattern to a larger red square and adhered to a larger brown square to create a frame or a double matte. Add some colored adhesive pearls for some shine, add buttons, bakers twine, and a tag sentiment. And you have a great masculine card or a neutral card for Fall, Christmas, or any occasion.
Plaid isn't just for the holidays!
Supplies: AC red blank cards; Authentique: Believe Collection 6x6 pad;
Square Punch; Adhesive pearls; Doodlebug buttons; AC bakers twine;
Pebbles banner sentiments; Glue dots; and a Xyron 1.5 sticker maker
Now lets see what you can make with a little imagination for our next theme "sweater weather" and enter your creations. Click the logo picture below for more details on how to enter by Sat, October 3rd. Good luck!
