Sorry about the delay. This weekend was a bust LOL, between family and icky sicky kids, I did not get much done. But I did putz away and made a few paper pricking cards and managed to assemble a freebie for you :)
First here is the card
I made a folder of I think 17 8X8 pinstripe papers for you to take and have fun with. They are in pastels shades and some neutral shades. I love them for paper pricking on.
You can find and download them HERE.
A word of warning.. the download is SMALL but it unzips and expands ALOT ( 12 MB).
The other backing paper is something I am working on.. some petit fleur papers. I didn't like how light it printed so I have to adjust them a bit more, there is supposed to be a faint white swirly pattern behind the little flowers, it just didn't print grrr. I distressed and blended some Dried Marigold and Peeled Paint distress inks here and there on the card. The Black-Eyed Susan ( and PP pattern are from the Fall Flowers Digi Set) is coloured with pencils and OMS. I added loose outlines around the flowers in the patterned paper with gold lumiere paint for some glitz.. and gold dewdrops.
I have also started making a "By the Sheet" designs. Carol L. has made a lovely card using the sheet I am putting up at the store... a lone sheet who was supposed to have friends but will soon LOL. The blossom is a colour that is NOT in the Lovely Blossom & Butterfly Decoupage Set.
Here is a preview of the sheet, Just about everything you need to complete a cardfront is on one sheet... how neat is that? LOL please let me know what you think... if this is something I should continue with ;)
I will put this one up at the store, it will be in a "By the Sheet" section HERE :) ... and I will add more as I make them.
Have a great day!

I am having trouble opening the freebie file. Can anyone help? Thanks
ReplyDeleteCheryl, try deleting the zip file and try the download again. It might not have downloaded properly... if that doesn't work, please email me and I will send to you via email. Note the file has to be unzipped to see the files.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tracey
Thank you so much for this Freebie. I want to let you know that I posted a link to your blog in CBH Digital Scrapbooking Freebies, under the Page 7 post on Sep. 23, 2009. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards! I like the idea of by the sheet. It would be great to have one that is for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteTracey, the sheet idea is a great one. I intend to buy one, too. That card you made is adorable with a capital A! Love the pin stripe papers, too. Thank you for sharing.

I just used your paper on my card. It was perfect for a challenge.

Thanks so much for the freebie - I love the shape of the paper you used the pin stripes on. What is it called, is it your own design?
ReplyDeleteThanks again,
