Welcome to the Team!



I so love welcoming new stamping friends to my Tri-City Stampers team.  This past Monday we had our monthly meeting and at it I got to welcome Mirela to my circle of stamping friends.  I am thrilled to have her as part of the group and wanted to make her a special card to mark her first team meeting.  As it happens, this card also works for this week's pattern and colour challenge over at The Friday Mash-up:

Here is the card I made for Mirela:

Bright and Bold card for FM92 featuring images from the Bloomin' Marvelous and Pretty Petites stamp sets.

Inside View with sentiment from Workshop Words
Talk about lots of patterns!  I pulled DSP from four different packs for this card!  Isn't it cool the way they all work together?  I used my Postage Stamp punch to punch the different squares of paper, adhered them to Early Espresso card stock and then ran it through my Big Shot with the new honeycomb TIEF.  Love that folder!!  I decorated some of the squares with various little bits and bobs I had laying on my desk...lots of fun little touches. Such fun to just play!!

    Gorgeous card Leena! Very creative way to combine the patterns with those postage squares. The honeycomb background is great. I also love all the details you added. Thanks for joining us at the Friday Mashup this week!

    Your cheerful stacked squares of patterned goodness are fabulous! I love the butterfly and other small details that you’ve added in some of the squares! Thanks for playing along with us at the Friday Mashup!
