More Countryside Inn

 Don't you love the Countryside Inn papers from Stampin' Up?  Here is another card that I made using them.  

For this card, I used thick white cardstock for the base, added a panel of Night of Navy and then added the pretty designer paper to complete the background.  I used the Framed Florets die cuts for the oval and Stitched Shapes for the white focal point.  The saying is from Layering Leaves as well as the sprigs and the flowers are punched from Petal Park.

When I made the cards, I tried to use different sayings, all from Layering Leaves stamp set.  

Each one looks a little different, but I love the soft sweet look of these papers.  And yes, it does remind me of what the wallpaper might look like if I was staying at the "Countryside Inn."  

Washi Tape Cards

Occasionally, one of my creative friends, Cindy, comes over to create with me.  One day she had stopped over at Michaels and picked up some pretty washi tape.  We decided to make cards using it.  We picked out some blue cardstock to match the washi tape colors and then cut out a heart shape with heart framelits using the Big Shot.

We added washi tape to the card in strips and then tucked that under the heart shape.  The decorative borders on the cards are just washi tape strips.

We even cut out butterflies from the washi tape to use as embellishments.

This card has some acetate under the heart cut-out and some beads and other confetti enclosed in the window to make it a shaker card.

And lastly, we just put washi tape in strips to make this card.  What fun cards we made.  And the best part - making crafts with my friend.  :)
