Frequenting Etsy on a daily basis, I have been inspired by all the different uses of doilies. One in particular is the combination of linen or burlap with a doily accent. So.......that is where the inspiration of my card came from.
This card measures approximately 4.75x4.75 and is made with PTI's Kraft Cardstock. I machine stitched the border with a scalloped stitch and inked it with PTI's Fresh Snow Ink. A doily was placed in the center, and then a diecut tag and matching piece of burlap. I then diecut a coordinating piece of DP to match the ribbon because the burlap frays so easily, I thought it would be a neat idea that when it does there was coordinating paper underneath. A Melissa Frances chipboard star was placed next along Nicole Heady's tag, PTI's Rustic Jute Twine and a PTI's Melon Berry button. and lastly a bow tied with PTI's Melon Berry Swiss Dot ribbon. That's it......easy-peasy.
Off to post my card..........thank you for taking a peek - good luck to all! Cathy xx :)
I love it!

ReplyDeleteOh my you did it again; you knocked me off my socks with another beauty!
ReplyDeleteI love the combo of a doily and burlap. The combo of that elegant doily and a fabric as basic as burlap is f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s. Your PTI sentiment is a wonderful centerpiece and I am in LOVE with that glittered star.
I think I made myself clear; this is gorgeous!
Hugs,
