For my card, I found I had a bunch of scrap pieces of burlap in my brown designer paper. It was really adding a lot of bulk to the scrap drawer. I wondered if I could recreate this card with a scrappy background and YES, it turned out perfect.
I added several gems to really pop against the card front and popped the sentiment up on dimensionals. Now I have a way to use up more of my scrap burlap and create a really fun card front.
Thank you for stopping by to check out my card today. I appreciate the lovely comments. If you leave me a comment, I can stop by your blog for a visit.

As You Like It - Favorite (Cute or Floral) I love florals. I do make cute cards sometimes but I really love floral cards. So many possibilities for florals. Cute is hard to give to everyone but florals can be for everyone.

ReplyDeleteOh wow this is such a clever idea Lisa! I love the strips of burlap and what a wonderful idea to use for a background too! I'll need to remember this idea when I pull out those Autumn flowers this year! Thanks for all your wonderful inspiration my friend!

that looks great, gives it lots of interest doing it with the scraps, the white against the burlap is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThat's such an effective way to use up snippets of burlap, looks really good as a backdrop to the white die cuts which pop forward to grab your attention.
