New Home Congrats Card


I love patterned paper! LOVE it! And when it has rows of borders on one 12x 12 sheet, I can visualize a card. One such revelation came to me from the "Songbird" paper pad from DCWV that I picked up recently from Michael's. All glossy and glittery, I added a punched border of red glittered cs and stamped a background using the Hero Art's DesignBlock that's all clouds (named "Clouds"?) using PTI's Aqua Mist. (Note to self: Buy large ink pad in that color for future cloud backgrounds vs. using the tiny ink spot =) I added some white stitching along the bottom to mimic the stitching on the clouds and stamped the sentiment. I liked it so well I actually delayed sending it to the recipient so I could look at it a few days lol! Does anyone else ever do that?

That's it for today. Thanks so much to those of you leaving comments. It keeps me motivated to keep posting.

Hugs,

Colleen
