A "Shabby Chic" Card


This is the card that I sent to my mom and her husband after we spent a few days with them earlier this summer.  It features the Wood Textures patterned paper and the Banners For You stamp set.  

The pack of paper includes several sheets of lighter wood, which is perfect for stamping directly on, which is what I did with the flowers, giving it that "shabby chic" look.

SIMPLE STAMPING TIP #7:  Stamp directly onto lightly-colored patterned paper. 

Here is the card I shared here a couple of weeks ago, using one of the darker shades of wood.

This paper can be used in so many different ways . . . it goes with any style, any color, any stamp set, etc.  Plus it works for both masculine or feminine cards.  This is a "must-have" item if you enjoy paper-crafting!  The price is $10 for a pack of 48, double-sided 6"x6" sheets.

The Banners For You stamp set contains a lot of fun sentiments, plus some pretty flowers to dress up the banners.
