Playing with Coordinating Papers

I am a paper collector...probably more honestly, I'm a paper hoarder.  I have so many stacks of it and I still love to find more.  If I used it regularly, I wouldn't feel so guilty, but that's just not me. For this Freshly Made Sketch, I picked up Unity's "Mousin' Mix-Up.' 

 

Forever Friends

The color brown got shorted on this card....and green was magnified.  It was an odd choice of images, I suppose, but I just wanted to use it for Color Throwdown.

 

Sunday Stamps in Shades of Purple

This Sunday Stamps sketch has an interesting group of shapes ... and it's a good way to use a variety of color shades. 

 

Anything Goes...with Wings

Anything Goes with a Twist of Wings

Years ago, I loved buying these decorative butterflies; they make mailing a card a little more difficult, but they are such pretty items.  

Color Throwdown in Layers

Because I was rushed, I ended up making a "basic" card...with colored layers for Color Throwdown.  I did add a twist with the embossing folder on the card front and the base layer below. The card front is also popped up on foam strips, as is the sentiment. 

Freshly Made with Gold Rose

My choice of specialty cardstock caused some problems with this Freshly Made Sketches card.  The metallic rose gold on the card front necessitated some more of that metallic elsewhere.  Photographing the reflective features was tricky. Anyplace the light can leak in, it leads to reflection.
