Now this was fun!! This week's Featured Stamper is Tracy, aka "Whoistracy" . I was drawn to all her quilt cards and decided to give it a try. I chose her "Quilted Books" card to case.
I used 6 different scraps of pages of DP I had from the Basic Grey "Capella" 6x6 paper pack. I stacked them onto my Sizzix Hexagon die all at once and ran them through. I arranged them randomly and glued them onto some copy paper, then cut it down to a 4x5-1/4" panel, and added some texture with an EF. I then stamped my image and assembled my card with a bow following Tracy's sketch.
Super fast with the help of the Sizzix die and Tracy's awesome design! Congratulations to Tracy!!
