I am NOT good at layering, or combining patterned papers - sometimes I just sit a ogle all the gorgeous cards Reverse Confetti's design team members make, hoping I'll 'get it' eventually. Look at this cool sketch:
It seems friendly, right? Tons of cute inspiration cards over at their blog. All is good ... until I pull out patterned papers, and find all of these COLORS that just scare me to death.
I've given it a go, simply because I ordered their darling little Jolly Holiday set before Christmas and it wanted to play cards today with my new Stamped Note confetti cuts ... that dear little deer deserves a Valentine! For SFYTT #32:

I think you layered the papers wonderfully!!! Great card!
ReplyDeleteIt turned out awesome, Michele! I am soooo bad at using patterned paper and no good at layering either but it looks like you've overcome both obsticles! Such a cute card!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! Jo x
ReplyDeleteI think your paper matching skills are just fine my friend! They look great to me! Love your cute little deer - and as always a clever twist - that little heart on his antler!
ReplyDeleteI think you did it...you made the winning card! This is adorable :))
ReplyDeleteI'm totally with you! The RC design team are all masters in the layering department. I've been staring at this sketch for days and have yet to tackle it. Anyway you have rocked it and inspired me to give it another go. I especially love the little heart around the reindeer's antlers!
