Hello and welcome to a new challenge at Shopping Our Stash, it's an easy one this fortnight all that is required is to use some sort of "person" on your card and that is what I did. For me it was a stretch since 95% of my stamps are either cats, mice and a few dogs but I remembered a two case Stampin'up set Beautiful You, three images, lots of sentiments and a couple of "puddle" stamps, I have used it before but it was a long time ago and if I remember I paper pieced it, now I'm wondering why it sits on a shelf.
The focal point is a sketch type stamp as are the other two, I kept the sketch simple, digging through the few paper pads (most are christmas) I saw the diagonal plaid and thought "perfect" now do I have cardstock to match and voila it was in the stack of every colour of cardstock I managed to have here at the cottage. I would have liked ribbon under the oval but had to settle for some dollar store enamel dots.
The sentiment was from the same set. I haven't finished the inside but it will be done as soon as I can, I'm not a fan of surprises when I go to sign a card and find it needs to be finished and it seems to take longer than if you finished it all at once.
I'm adding this to:
AAA Birthday ~~ use patterned paper
Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check out the Main Blog and see what people the rest of the team have used.
