So I fell in love with this card that Debbie Olson made…check out her blog at www.debbiedesigns.typepad.com – get a beverage, yer gonna be a while! Maybe potty while yer at it!
I am not sure if I got it off her blog, or splitcoaststampers, cause I copied it to my computer who knows when to take a stab at it one day….well today was that day…
Of course none of it is Stampin’ Up!, she may have used glue dots and snail, but nothing else on the card is SU!
But I love argyle, and hope we have more of it in the new catalog. We are losing Print Pattern background stamp and that has me a little worried. I want to use Eastcoast Prep paper and my Give Thanks bucket a few more times before the are gone for good…sniff!
So anyway, after playing around with my stuff this is my version, not as breathtaking as Debbie’s, but not too shabby…now that I look at it, I should have done my scallop strip in red…crap you can’t even see it in the picture….hmmmmm…….well I can always do another one…but I can’t take it apart now.
What I used:
Stamp sets: Give Thanks, Enjoy Every Moment
Ink: Jetblack Stazon, More Mustard, Green Galore, Tempting Turquoise, Real Red Classic Inks
Paper: Eastcoast Prep Designer paper, Whisper White, Real Red, Wild Wasabi, More Mustard, Shimmery White
Misc: Paper Piercer, White gel pen, zig painty pen, slit punch for the strip of background paper that you cant even see…..ha!
Can ya hear that? That is me taking the card apart….. sometimes I am thinking wouldn’t me taking medicine for my analism be easier? Ha!
There I changed the scallop to red and I don’t know if I like it any better, I mean heck I probably should have just put it on the argyle paper and not tried to copy Debbie’s paper….hmmmm…let me try again…NOT!!!! It’s done. I’m turnin’ the studio lights out and calling it a night.
Thanks for stopping in!
Hugs, Di
ADORABLE!
