As excited as I was to have some early warm weather… I’m wishing for it to cool down a bit! Such a warm winter here in NW Florida. Any how… time for craft festivals and spring cards. In fact I've been crafting like a crazy person getting ready for my first craft fest of the year which is next week end.
So, here is a totally non- wintery card and note book set. My Wordbirds are perfect for Spring! I love opening the digi image in Photoshop and “filling” their wings and bodies with colors and patterns. I enjoy printing these birdies on an assorted array of papers such as watercolor, cryogen white, and heavy weight card stocks.
Today I’ve printed my digi image on a digital paper called Pure White Gloss (card) and watercolor paper for the post-it note book.
Pure White Gloss from The PaperTemptress store is the same paper that most of your favorite high end glossy magazines are printed on. I love this text weight glossy paper for printing my birds! My card, post-it note cover and skinny notepad holder feature Pop Tones in in orange fizz and hot fudge. Gotta love the names of the Pop Tones card stock…yum.
These projects are very clean and simple, yet the contrasting textures add such a nice touch. I’m enjoying experimenting with all the lovely papers to be found at the PaperTemptress store. You can order most of these specialty papers in very small quantities if you choose. Isn’t that such a nice way to try them out before investing in a whole pack?!
Stop by and try some of those fabulous papers and card stock. And don’t forget to check out the beautiful ribbons too! ;D
Diana - sweet set. Love the wings being filled with the patterned paper - gotta love Photoshop!
I also wanted to tell you I grew up in Ft. Walton Beach...my sister lives in Gulf Breeze...and I visit the area every July. If you are participating in any craft fairs then, be sure to post and I will come and see you. It is such a small world!
