Hand Made Background Paper.

By
For the Mid-week Motivation piece at Make My Monday this week I made a card with a piece of hand made background paper - take a look


I used one of my favourite SU sets - Nature Walk and the plaque shape from Everything Eleanor. Colours used are Memento - Rich Cocoa and Dessert Sand and SU Baja Breeze. The ribbon is also SU Gross Grain ribbon in Early Espresso.
If you would like to see how I made my background paper please pop over to the Make My Monday blog as I have posted a tutorial there.
I am also entering this card into  The House That Stamps Built challenge - DCC14~Blue and Brown Card Challenge.
See you soon - Jacqueline xx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
