Hiya crafty friends,
Had another fabulous class today Online Card Class - Pattern Play. I think it has been my favourite up to now.
Today was all about how to work with hard to use pattern papers. Which is such a great idea, as we all have those papers that sit on our shelf that we just don't know what to do with.
So I looked through my paper pad stash and came across this pad that I got free with a magazine, which I have never used. As I found the patterns too scary..lol! I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about.
I found the rose paper paper particularly scary, so I made sure that was the first I took out of the pad. The stripe paper is not a hard to use paper, but I included it for balance.
And here's my card (which was a quick one today, as it's a bit of a busy few days)
I was particularly inspired by one of the tutors called Debby, who I have not come across before but now love her work.
This is sooo pretty. Even if it's a really busy paper with the white it really doesn't overwhelm the card. Fabulous
ReplyDeleteTurned out very pretty and I like all the white space...it really draws the eyes to the focal. :)
ReplyDeleteNice card:) Like the butterflies.
ReplyDeleteI like how you've done this. I've a pad full of "rosiness" too and this is a great way to use it with plenty of white. You should check out Debby (limedoodle) - her CAS work is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card. You rocked the idea of making the patterned paper shine in a CAS card.
ReplyDeleteReally love the card. Love that you left a lot of white space.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to use your freebie...Gorgeous card!!!
ReplyDeleteI love how the white background and space really allows your patterned paper to be bold, even though they are the smallest "real estate" on the card. Very nice card!
