Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Blue Roses ... Labels Forty

Hi Everybody,

This lovely blue card is in several different patterns but they all work nicely together.

Don't be afraid to mix stripes and ginghams with spots and florals because as long as the tones ore the same the patterns will work.

Both of these are from Lime Tree Craft and I bought them at the craft shows I go to. The card is a smooth, matt, top quality feel and it smells nice too

For this card I have created a 5x7 hinged card  and then layered it with gingham

The detailed panels are from Spellbinders Labels Forty and is the Classic Collection

I have added flowers from  Wild Orchid Crafts  threaded  blue ribbon through the white lace which is also from WOC

Altogether a pleasing little card suitable for any occasion.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  11. Good morning Christina

    I would never have thought of using spots and stripes together. I have some of these papers so I will have to try this. Thanks for the tip. Must say that I like your card today.

  16. Hi Christina,
    I have to admit that I would have been scared to mix gingham and spots before seeing what a beautiful card you've made using the different patterned papers. Beautiful as always. x
