There is still time to play for the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Cuppa Cocoa
Like most paper crafters I have some some big time shopping and hoarding issues. LOL It felt so good to type that out loud! I love patterned paper and I have a closet full of 12 x 12 sheets waiting to be used for scrapbooking and I have now managed too accumulate three plastic bins full of 6 x 6 pads that I could not live without. Sound familiar? I am really trying to explore using patterned paper in my cardmaking, I love it when I see so many of you using it, what seems to be effortlessly too! Swoon ! So although it feels awkward, it does feel good to cut into these pads with the intention of making something pretty. Wish me luck on this endeavor. I love the theme of the current Curtain Call Challenge so I wanted to make another card. This one is more coffee inspired and once again I am using paper from my Persimmon pad. I am also submitting this card for the current Reverse Confetti SFYTT challenge.
You have another 3 days to play along, the challenge closes on February 10th! Hope you play along.
I'm right there with you, those 6x6 pads are irresistible!! Good for you on using more today. CUTE card I like the placement of your cup and the overall offset design!
ReplyDeletetotally LOVE this, Tracey! way to flash the RC, sweets!
ReplyDeleteLove the foam design on the coffee. Darling color combo too.
ReplyDeleteFun papers Tracey & love the coffee stamps! I am addicted to 6x6 pads, but rarely use them - they are just so pretty!
ReplyDeleteFabulous creation! Wonderful job with the papers and layout! I just love this set...sigh. :)
ReplyDeleteLove this! The colors and layout of your card are perfect. And the pattern paper is awesome! Something I should try and use more of too! ;)
ReplyDeleteFabulous card Tracey. I love all the design elements to it.
ReplyDeleteGood luck as you start using your patterned papers. I, too, have 4 overflowing baskets of 6x6 pads. Yikes!
Fabulous card--I do love how you have used those patterned papers on this card. I will cheer you on as you cut into those pads.
ReplyDeleteI think you are rocking the patterned paper. I'm thinking Archiver's closing is going to help me in not buying so many 6x6 paper pads! I've never bought any on-line...we'll see if I really manage to do that! This card is perfect..love the sentiment!
ReplyDeleteLove your card! Wonderful design with the bright paper patterns! I think we all are guilty of paper hoarding!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card Tracey. Love the fun colors and that yummy cup of coffee! (PS: your reverse confetti link goes to blogger!)
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute card!
