Sending Patterned Hugs

Hi everyone,

Ilina here and today I am featuring the Pattern Maker stamp set. I used it to create my own patterned paper in warm colors. To make the card I started with a panel of white card stock and stamped the stripes repetitively using the following surface inks: Street Light, Salon, Rose Garden, Construction and Boutique. Once I was done with the pattern I trimmed my piece down to 2″ x 4″ and set it aside. In mean time I die cut the Hugs die from cream shimmer card stock, and using shimmer spray, sprayed 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of black card stock.

Next, I stamped the “Sending” sentiment from the Hugs Needed stamp set and adhered the die cut. I assembled the whole card onto black note card and added some sequins to finish it off.

I love how the warm and bright colors look on the black card stock and all the shimmer on it.
