Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
I am here today to show you a card made with these papers:
Now I wonder how many of you out there have these. I've collected them from magazines and they just pile up and up as I don't really use printed papers very often so I decided that I should Use them or Lose them so here goes.
Of course I soon managed to make the desk my own Lol!
And this is where I ended up.
All done with the free papers and a couple of A4 sheets of black and white card and some shiny green thread.
I used two different papers to stamp the flower and then fussy cut one of them, placed the thread and layered the flower over the top to give a bit of extra depth to the design.
When I got home I did add some Stickles glitter glue to the flower to bring the detail out a little more.
I think the patterned paper works really well with the flower.
I quite fancy using this stamp with a blue background and use it as a water lily.
I'm sure this will only be the start of using up that ever growing pile of papers.
Hope you like the card, I would love to hear your comments.Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
Angela x

Hi, Angela, your card is stunning! I love the papers, and your design allows both the paper and the image to shine. This project was beautifully conceived and executed.
I, too, have embarked on a "use it or lose it" campaign with my printed papers, but I am mostly using them as planner dashboards and money/gift card envelopes.
I may give this card type a try for an upcoming challenge. Thanks for the inspiration!

This is beautiful Angela, so stylish! It's a great way of using up those papers, and what a wonderful card design, I will definitely have to bookmark this one to try myself. I had to laugh at the way you took over the table, I will always spread out to cover any available (or not) space. Take care and have a great week, Sue xx
Had to pop over and see this up close, fabulous fold and design. You've made good use of those papers, it's a real beauty this one Angela. Thank you for sharing.
I'd have taken over the table too... even the smallest of projects make me spread out :))
Hugs for a happy & healthy week Tracey xx
