Hi there and Happy Valentines Day hope you all have a LOVEly day !
This week I have been trying to make a card for the Muse challenge which has this card by
Michele Ferguson
Proper male card by Michele!.. and normally I love doing male cards problem is I don't really have many - in fact only have one pack bought to make boxes etc of Su designer 12x12 brights - background papers (what I hear you cry I know,I know but they never seem to work with me even took an online course to learn different techniques and beautiful as theirs were....mine ended up usually being pulled off!) and on top of that no chevron stamps so a bit of dilemma.!
That was until I was browsing the Fusion challenge and saw the inspirational photo...
So decided to mix the two up taking the chevrons,stripes (does anyone else see that the chevrons background paper is in stripes too or is just me!) the hello and the heart from the Muse challenge and the colours orange ,brown and teal and yes there is a green on the little table beside the armchair :) just have to enlarge the photo a good bit and also noticed that one of the cushions has a stripe down the side so incorporated that in the layout too!
Supplies used:- SU Pumpkin Pie designer papers and cardstock
SU word bubbles dies
Su stries stamp
SU sentiments - Four you and Regarding dahlias
Su small heart punch
P.s and would you believe it but I love that little bit of designer paper maybe I will use it more often now!:)
Thanks for taking the time to look
