Paper Smooches Guest Post #3

It's Wednesday so I have another Paper Smooches card to share with you. My time as a guest designer is almost at an end, but not yet!

 The card above was just me trying to use more patterned papers. I have a million sheets with no idea how to use them, in my CAS style, other than paper piecing. The orange piece is paper tape that i coloured with a copic to match. Originally it was supposed to mimic a shag rug but I put it on on the wrong side of the card so is now just an accent strip! The buttons are, again, linen ones that I coloured with copics.
This card was super fun to make! It is the reason that I bought the wood sheets I spoke of here. I made the "wallpaper" using an image from the scooter set, then coloured it all in with copics. The wood bottom is to be a desk or shelf and the white piece some trim. To make the little piece of cord that sticks out from behind I used the end of the "you turn me on" sentiment that comes with Boob Tubes.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

  2. I love how the first one has a kind of upholstered feel, very retro 70s-ish, and that wallpaper that you STAMPED (!!!) on the second one is so awesome! Fabulous detail on both!

  15. I love the retro look of these cards, Kasia! I'll admit that Boob Tubes wouldn't be a set I would think of buying but you're really selling it to me here! I love your shaggy carpet tape turned accent and the embossed wood paper. These little scenes are fabulous!
