Since Provocraft sent out replacement cartridges to correct a discrepancy between the cartridge and the overlay, I took another look at Paper Trimmings. Truthfully, I'd totally forgotten about even owning it! The cartridge has a lot of really neat flowers or medallions on it.
I cut the white portion of the flower at 3" and the shadow portion at 3 1/2". Using the hide contour feature in Design Studio, I eliminated the circle in the flower center and opted to use a punched shape instead.
The background paper is Great Lakes Paisley from Scrapbook Customs. The white border was done with a SU border punch.
The large solid blue area across the bottom just needed something to break it up. Stamping a sentiment and punching it out would have solved the issue, but while I was on the phone with Shirley, aka Okieladybug, the teardrop shaped scraps from the flower caught my eye. I just attached them with some Scotch Quick Dry glue and they added just what I needed.
Very pretty card. I love to use the leftovers like that and blue and white always looks so fresh and neat!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card. I love just the two colors together.
ReplyDeleteI never heard of this cartridge before your post the other day. Now I am going to have to go to M's to see what is on it.
