This month's Blog Hop challenge was to use text as a background. I haven't done that in a while. I chose to use the script paper from Raspberry Fizz patterned paper, and I went crazy and made two cards. Yahoo.
For this first card, I traced a Maya Road flower, knotted a piece of ribbon and poked it through a hole in the center. The New Leaf ribbon is just looped a little and adhered to itself.
This second card didn't turn out quite as well as I had envisioned, but it works fine. It's for a friend of mine, and I just wanted to have a bunch of different kinds of hearts to represent different personalities.
Card #1
Paper: PTI White, Bitty Dot black pattern paper, Raspberry Fizz, RF patterns
Other: Maya Road flower for template, Raspberry Fizz and New Leaf satin ribbon, dimensional tape
Card #2
Paper: PTI White, black, RF patterns
Ink: Versafine Onyx, SU PassionPink
Stamps: PTI Heart Prints
cute cards!
