Happy Plaidurday, the first Friday of October! I’ll leave it to others to post flannel shirts, wallpaper, or other plaidelicious salutes to the holiday, but I’ll share the work I do best.
This note card starts with a stenciled plaid created on a 3¼” x 4¾” Very Vanilla panel, cut in half on the diagonal. I used Pool Party for the plaid because it goes so well with the colors of autumn.
Ever since I held the Marvelous Masks class last February, I’ve been using both current and retired masks like crazy. I enjoy the whole process: affixing the cardstock panel with temporary adhesive to the Grid Paper, aligning and securing the mask on top, and gently applying ink over the mask with a Blending Brush. Carefully remove the mask and it’s magical. This is a simple plaid, but of course you can get much more detailed. See all the cards I’ve made with the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks here.
Many years ago, someone gave me a floral arrangement in a ceramic pumpkin. I loved that idea, and then appeared this bundle in the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2022 Mini Catalog! I love everything about this bundle, but I need to get cracking if I’m going to use it all before the end of November.
It looks like there are an awful lot of supplies used on this little card, but that’s thanks to all the Stampin’ Blends. It’s hard for me to only use a few! (I listed Kraft Note Cards & Envelopes in the supply list, but I actually made this using a rogue Crumb Cake note card.)
