I don't try to make plaid backgrounds very often. I find them tedious. But I wanted to experiment with a plaid for these big flowers so I used some yellows and browns. It's not my favorite plaid, but it works for this card. This is one more card for the Simon Says Stamp Make Your Own Background Challenge.
I made this card for a wedding. The background was created with several layers of distress ink and two different stencils. The sentiment is an old one from Reverse Confetti and the stamp of the couple is from Rubbernecker. Entering this on the SSS Wednesday Challenge, Backgrounds.
Another card for the SSS Wednesday Challenge. This background was made with an embossing folder from Cuttlebug and homemade patterned paper using Concord &9th Triangle Turnabout. The Hello is from Pink and Main and the sentiment strip is from SSS. I really like these colors together!
The new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is Make Your Own Background! I do this with almost all my cards nowadays. Here is one which was inspired by Jennifer McGuire who did a double inking technique with stencils to complete two backgrounds. I added a few die cuts (which matched the flowers on the stencil) on top and a sentiment.
For this month's My Favorite Things Slimline challenge, the idea is to play with mini slimline without worrying about a theme. So here' s a cute card I made for Fall. Might use it for Thanksgiving, but not sure.
Going to put it on the MFT Mini Slimline Challenge for November. I am also entering this in the SSS Wed. Challenge Make Your Own Background. Products used - SSS Leaves Wreath stencil, Altenew Sketched Lines stencil, Pinkfresh Mini Slimline envelope dies, Sentiment is from MFT Autumn Blessing and Harvest Mouse.

One more card for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge "Trees." These are two new stamp sets from Studio Light, stamped with dye ink and enhanced with water color.
Love how this mini slim line card turned out. I am not fond of the large slim line design, but I like the smaller version. This one uses My Favorite Things images, Simon Says Stamp leaves, Altenew stencil "sketched lines." Entering this in the SSS Wednesday Challenge "Thanksgiving."
