Just a Little Note with Cardboard!

Shimmery Gold and Black header with words Stampin' Dreams blog hop

Welcome to the Stampin’ Dreams Blog Hop. We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world hoping to bring you inspiration. Today our blog hop theme is Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.

I have chosen to use something I have quite a bit of around my home- corrugated cardboard. Have you ever seen that on a card?

I cut my cardboard to the size of a card mat (5 1/4″ x 4″) and then peeled all of the top layer off. I then peeled off some of the corrugated part and left holes. I used my blending brush to add Pecan Pie ink over most of the cardboard and trying to darken the corrugated parts even more.

The piece of Nature’s Sweetness DSP has torn edges that were also inked with a blending brush. The focal image is from the same pack of paper and was fussy cut and then colored with Stampin’ Blends.

Here’s a close up look at all that texture.
