Tulips Inspired by Joanne Wardle for Paper Artsy


This week on Paper Artsy, Joanne Wardle is back as Guest Designer with clean and simple cards, concentrating on die cuts. I haven't got any of the Paper Artsy dies so Petra kindly lent me her tulip die with the matching Lin Brown Eclectica stamp set, which I love. I made two very similar cards, both cutting a stencil to smear the grunge paste through, but on the one above I used it directly onto the card. On the one below I die cut the card and smeared the grunge paste through the stencil on the inside.

I am entering the challenge here.

    I really like the second card the manner in which you die-cut the actual cardbase.
    Bold and full of life!

    P.S. Lucy, thank you so much for your lovely comment on my Sew Somerset fabric wall hanging. Hope you are having a lovely weekend. It is dull and dismal here, as we would say, a "dreich" day"!

    How nice of Petra to let you borrow that lovely tulip die! I would like to get some more PA dies, as I only have one or two. That tulip is such a beautiful shape. Your cards look so bright and warm! I love the splats too! Julie Ann xx
