If I make everything that's swimming around in my head at the moment I'm going to need a few 48 hour days! So here is a very quick and simple card I made as a warming up exercise.
I had a good rummage around the snippets box and came up with an assortment of patterned papers - all except the black and white floral, which I think was left over from a CD printout, came from a Craftwork Cards goody bag I got about 5 years ago. I cut the patterned papers into 4cm squares, and a white 8.5 cm square, then stamped the sentiment on the white square and added part of a die cut silhouette of the Paris skyline (I think the die was from Marianne Creatables).
The card I used for the matting is a vicious shocking pink that is far too bright for most purposes, but I think it works well with these papers, probably more so in real life than on the photo.
I would like to share this with:
