The Card Concept #53

So many of us hoard our patterned paper but I thought the challenge at The Card Concept was perfect for using some. of mine

My oval dies from PTI and a lacy one from MCS are done in teal to (sort of) match the flowers.  They really do look match-y IRL  The PS sentiment takes center stage.  I think I'm about done with Thank You cards for a while.

My colors are a little off from the photo but are still in the same family.

I'm off to play cards with Michele Ferguson tomorrow.  If we actually finish a card, with all the sharing and chatting and eating and laughing, you may see it in a post this weekend.

Very pretty! Love that patterned paper, and those dies are simply fantastic. Wish I had a little plane, that way I could fly over the Lake and play with you two ladies! Have fun with Michele and enjoy every minute! Bev

This is so elegant and pretty! I was just looking at my ridiculous amount of pattern paper and wondering if I should get rid of it. Now you've convinced me otherwise!!

Brilliant way to use patterned paper--and what a pretty pattern that is. Love this design and the way your border matches the mat of your sentiment.

So gorgeous! Love the stamping all over the DP, and that lacy border....I'm wondering where it comes from? Would love to know.

Unfortunately the company that made the lacy die is no longer in business, Kathy.
