Happy June!! 2023 is half over!! What?! I have absolutely no idea what I just said, but I do have two cards for you today so there's that.
Our theme this month is Patterns, and really it's to make you aware of the sale on DP this month only. You can view and the discounted DP by clicking HERE. You can also place an order while you're there!
I don't have any current DP at the moment, but I do know that often people get frustrated and/or disappointed that they "can't" make something with the supplies they have. So let me show you how to make your own patterns with what you DO have- stamps and ink! And this time I used the latest sketch from The Paper Players.
First, I stamped the floral backgrounds. I stamped flowers all the way across so it could be a sheet of DP or whatever. But it's really a background image. Then I created the greeting panel making a pattern of the greetings. This is a trick I was taught at the very first Stampin' Up! workshop I ever attended. Repeat the greeting and voila! You have a pattern!

ReplyDeleteWhat awesome cards, Tanya! I love how you stamped the flowers to create your own background paper. The repeating sentiment is a neat technique. Thank you for playing with The Paper Players this week!
