It’s Thursday, and time to play with the Pals at Pals Paper Arts. This week we are featuring a fabulous sketch by the talented Margaret Moody. I flipped the sketch, and substituted a button and curled corners for the circular elements. Plus, I just had to use Stampin’ Up!’s new Scalloped Tulle Ribbon. The verdict is in…and I LOVE it! Enjoy a few Winter Memories…
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips; Victorian and Rustic
This finished card measures 4-1/4″ wide by 5-1/2″ long.
- Victorian and Rustic! Gorgeous paper and beautiful texture combine to give a Victorian, yet rustic appeal to this card. The trick is in the patterns and the colors! Candlelight Christmas Designer Series Paper and the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder were the dynamic duo for this card!
- Tulle is the rule! Soft and scalloped, Stampin’ Up!’s Tulle makes up into an easy bow when slipped through the holes of a Brushed Bronze Button!
- Faux and fabulous! Riding Hood Red, Always Artichoke and Soft Suede inks are the perfect palette for the Sled image from Winter Memories. Add a few water spots and pearls to complete the vintage look. And…don’t forget to curl the corner!
Don’t you just love this stamp set from Stampin’ Up!’s new Holiday Catalog? It is one of my top picks for the holiday season. I will be featuring this set on next week’s Freshly Made Sketches card, too. I will share my complete list of Holiday Catalog favorites upon my return from Convention. As always, your comments are important to me, and I do read each and every one of them! And remember…if you ever have any questions about the cards I create or the techniques I use, I am only an email away! Until next time…

Ann this is just beautiful. LOVE the tulle… I’m so mad at myself because I forgot to order it. I had it on ONE of my lists and somehow when I preordered I missed it… dang. Hugs
Oh, this is really pretty Ann! Love the sneak peek we get to see. Winter memories looks like a beautiful stamp and perfect for a vintage card. I like how you sponged the edge and this new tulle! Looking forward to seeing the next card made with this set too. Hope you are having a joyful time and learning new things at convention!
This is so pretty
I am so excited to see this card this morning. I just colored this image last night and left it on my desk so I could decide this morning how to use it on a card. Thanks for the wonderful ideas. You have given me some fabulous texture and elements to consider when I go to put mine together! Love it, Ann!
Love it! Have fun!
Once again – WOW!
Great card. All those elements add up to a stand out card.
Beautiful card, Ann! Love the tulle threaded through the button!
