For this card, I was inspired by the patchwork on the beautiful dress and pulled out my stack of one‑inch paper square scraps to create a coordinating patchwork background. Each piece was adhered to white cardstock and then trimmed to fit a 4.25 x 5.5 black card base.
The card is finished with a thank you sentiment on an oval, popped up on dimensionals and layered over a scalloped oval for a clean, classic focal point.

Beautiful patchwork design, so pretty. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautifully designed and crafted Lisa, always good to use those pretty scraps that are too good to throw away- especially with a result like this.

Gorgeous card, great choice of papers, the dress must be beautiful too!
ReplyDeleteNot only is it a great way to use up snippets, it's such an eye catching design, I found my eyes first drawn to the yellow, then the ferns and one by one you take in all the patterns as one.
