Paper Temptress reversible brown bag

Oh this was a fun card, it kind of took over and made itself. I used some fun reversible paper from PaperTemptress that gave a great torn edge, did the cutout edges, and then used the scraps for an inside that is even more fun than the outside.  The front has the text divided up but only the inside shows the "belated." There is just enough room for me to give an explanation of why my card is late ... but those who know me know that I always make cards on time but somehow getting them mailed is my bugaboo.


 My happiest discovery was using the owl punch for my circles, and then tucking the owl vest in behind a flower to set it off on the inside.


The reversible brown bag paper made this card quick because those brown edges peeking out of the cranberry were accomplished by tearing.

  1. I think this is one of the most striking cards you've made in a while! I love the stacked layers and the punching - it has a lot of texture!
