This was my first card in the Stamp Review Crew’s blog hop earlier this week. Although I colored a piece of Perfectly Penciled Designer Series Paper and cut it into pieces for my three cards, you could certainly use any patterned paper. It’s just that one morning I simply wanted to color, so I made my cards around the result. It’s not usually the way I work (start with a plan, then work the plan), but I enjoy coloring and had missed it because of family and other obligations.
As I mentioned in Monday’s post, the three cards use very easy layouts, ones that can be adapted to your preferences. You will find ingredients, measurements, and directions when you click on the Free Project Sheet widget below.
Just a note about the coloring: although I did use both light and dark Petal Pink markers for the flowers, I only used the light Granny Apple Green marker on the leaves. You might think the mat on the sentiment circle would also be Granny Apple Green, but I like the way Pear Pizzazz looks instead. Don’t omit the Wink of Stella over the Daffodil Delight flower centers!
