I love beautiful papers & used to buy a lot of 12x12 sheets when I had stamp stores in my area. Mostly, however, I just admire them--haha! One of my more recent acquisitions is the MME Fancy That pad with shades of pink & gray with gold--couldn't resist! Mojo Monday has prizes every first Monday & I'm planning to play along with as many as I can this year. This week's sketch looked doable for me & Teresa's DT card made me pull out that MME pad & my still unopened Verve stamp set & matching dies (Dream Big) from a gc won late last year. The bloom is heat embossed with Encore gold, the leaves are stamped in PTI Melon Berry & the sentiment is stamped in Versafine Onyx Black. The quality of these stamps is outstanding & I'd love to get more! So fun to attach enamel dots & tiny gems in a random fashion--not my usual--inspired by the paper's flower centers. Don't you love ending up with a card you really like?! This could almost be called trendy, which I never accomplish! The sweet birds let me also enter at Twofers, although they may not count being in the background. First use of my new Verve products so I can also enter these challenges: Inkspirational, SSS Monday & SSS Wednesday, along with Anything Goes at Word Art Wednesday. This card is for all of you who offer me your friendship & support--such a blessing.
Those colors are incredibly dreamy!! Such a pretty card Greta!! Speaking of pretty cards...THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for my birthday card, LOVE IT!!!
Your card is beautiful Greta! ... I couldn't resist these papers when I first saw them but sadly they are never really used ... Should have sent them to you! Have a great day!
You combined these papers so pretty. I love all the black gems in the center of the flower. My goal this year is to use my pattern paper. Like you, I have so many single sheets of 12 x 12 and I don't know how many 6 x 6 pads and don't use any of it. This card has inspired me! Thank you.
Very very pretty! These papers are gorgeous and I understand the bit about just collecting it mostly. Good thing you are off to using it now so that we can admire it too.
This card is SO pretty, Greta. I absolutely love it, everything about it. Thanks so much for stopping by to share your talents with us. I hope that you will join us again soon. Blessings, Karen Word Art Wednesday
