Autumn Leaves in Plaid by fairsinger

Photo Details

Poster: fairsinger

I made this card for CAS191 (use plaid) and TLC398 (use dimension).

I stamped leaves on the plaid DSP in Chocolate Chip. I attached two pieces of jute, then adhered the panel to my Chocolate Chip card base. I stamped the sentiment in Chestnut Roan on a piece of tan card stock, then mounted it on a piece of Chocolate Chip card stock. I added foam squares to the back of the sentiment piece and adhered it to the card over the jute.

I really wanted to use raffia in place of the jute, but I just couldn't find raffia in the right color in my supplies. When I first looked at this plaid paper I wasn't sure if I would like it on a card, but now I really like the masculine feeling it lends.

For more information, see my blog post: http://insomniacstamper.blogspot.com...-in-plaid.html

Thanks for looking!
