Card Patterns



I really like the new Card Patterns sketch! As simple as it looks (and should be), I spent way too much time on this card! I had an idea and then didn't like it but had already glued all of the pieces together except for the stamped image. Anyway.... instead of wasting the paper, I came up with this. You would think I would learn my lesson about doing that!

I really like this new Bo Bunny Christmas line. I used my Crayola coloring pencils to color in the ornaments. I didn't have the color Copics that I wanted to use and I like how the coloring pencils look on kraft paper!

Hope you all have a wonderful Sunday!

Supplies:
Stamps - Merry Christmas (Bo Bunny)
Paper - Tis the Season (Bo Bunny), Baja Breeze (SU), Kraft, Pure Poppy Bitty Dots (PTI)
Ink - True Black (PTI)
Other - Crayola Coloring Pencils, Dark Chocolate Ribbon (PTI), Rustic Jute Twine (PTI), American Crafts button

Love the fun lively colors on the dp and the colored pencils look Great on the Kraft! I don't think I've colored on Kraft before...thanks for the terrific tip! :> I do that, in regards to cutting and gluing and then going, "oops!" But, you really made it work, Kelley! :>
