Ooh La La! Merci!

I am soooo in LOVE with this set from Lizzie Anne Designs! It’s called Ooh La La and you can buy it HERE! I had some fun making my samples for this set, so here’s the first one!

Merci

I have been digging through my stash of patterned paper lately, and found this Cherrywood Lane line by Heidi Grace that I got from my LSS. I absolutely adore the colors, and thought they would work well with my French themed card.

I mounted the strip of paisley to the striped pattern, then created a frame with the argyle print. To do this, I used the Spellbinders magnetic mat, and placed the plain square Nestability die inside the scalloped square die. I ran it through to cut, and again to emboss.

I cut a square of Valley Forge Olde Natural parchment paper slightly smaller than the frame and lightly marked with a pencil where the inside of the frame was positioned. This allowed me to easily position the images on the panel before adhering it to the back of the frame. I used Ranger Adirondack colors in pink sherbet, hazelnut, and espresso.

I adhered this panel to the back of the frame, added a bit of taupe grosgrain ribbon, and an AMuse pink bling to the top of the tower. The tower was colored with my clear Copic Spica glitter pen for some shimmer. :)

The sentiment was stamped on the same parchment paper, then punched with the word window and Bazzill brads added. I adhered this to a Prism Razzleberry light cardbase, then added the framed panel on foam dimensional tape.

Be sure to come back tomorrow for a set I made with these darling stamps! Bye for now!!bye

    Hello there! Beautiful card. I keep forgetting to tell you that the reinkers arrived! Ummm…there was a bit of a mishap with the yoyo yellow though. Let’s just say…yoyo yellow did not want to stay closed during shipping because he missed being with his friends. Yikes. Have a great day.
