Out of my comfort zone


Whoa! What happened here? Did somebody else make this card for me? It’s very not “me”, I’ll agree – and that’s because I tried very hard to copy a card from the catalogue. Using different stamps and different colours, of course; no point in making it too easy!

I’d ask you to guess which card it was ... but then I’d suffer the humiliation of nobody responding, so I’ll put you out of your misery. It’s the centre card on page 56 of the UK catty. The catty sample is Crumb Cake and uses Growing Green. I didn’t have that set when I made this (I do now!) so used Ornate Flowers instead.

Stamps: Ornate Flowers, Tiny Tags
Cardstock: Pear Pizzazz, Early Espresso, Whisper White
Paper: Greenhouse Gala
Ink: Baja Breeze, Early Espresso
Accessories: Scallop Edge Punch, Jewellery Tag Punch, 1/8” Taffeta Ribbon – Early Espresso
