Patterned Paper Play – Three Creative Ways!
Hello and Happy 4th of July, Altenew friends! This is Virginia. I have three fun projects to share with one of our brilliant paper packs “Blushing Blooms”. This April, I did the Altenew “Make & Take” at our ScrapFest here in Ontario, Canada. I have quite a lot of paper strips leftover from the craft show. I decided that this is a good chance to challenge myself to make good use of the gorgeous paper strips. So here we go!
I am using “Forever in Love Stamp& Die Bundle” for all of the projects. This is a great way to combine stamps, dies, and patterned paper to create a set of cards.
First, I used the strips of paper to create a unique background. Each piece of paper is curated to be matching within each collection. Therefore, it is safe to mix them up.
I adhered the paper strips with Altenew Glue Tape onto a piece of copy paper. I then stamped the “Forever in Love” image in Fresh Leaf Crisp Dye Ink. The Sentiment Strips Stamp Set provides the perfect sentiment.
My next card was also created in a similar manner as the first. This time, I used the smallest Nesting Labels Die Set to create the sentiment banner.
For my 3rd card, I created a one-of-kind paper-weaved background. I stamped the sentiment YOU with Ombre Alpha Stamp Set in Enchanted Gold Pigment Ink.
This was such a fun card to make. All you need is to start with the criss-cross design and gradually build your pattern. I also split the floral image to show off the paper-woven background.
I hope that you like my fun and easy projects with patterned paper. Perhaps you want to go and play with your stamps and patterned paper after this?
Thank you for stopping by!
