Do you like to make card sets? Here is a darling purse set featuring the classic stamp set, Lovely as a Tree and the warm and luscious Autumn Meadows Designer Series Paper. Isn't that Herringbone perfect? And harmony of the weathered Taken with Teal just makes me want to sing. (Don't worry. I'm not going to add a music feature to my blog!) The instructions for this set are available when you make a $50 purchase through me. Click on bonus for more details.
Of course, once you have the pattern, there's no end to the ways that you can play with the design and make it your own. Here is another set that I made the Autumn Meadows set directions switching out the stamp set for Upsy Daisy and the paper for Night and Day. Melon Mambo and Pretty in Pink are the perfect foil to the crisp black and white. I kept the look of the herringbone but moved it to the flap of the purse.
Did you notice the card peaking out on the right? The black and white patterns in the Night and Day DSP can be brayered or sponged to match many color schemes. In this case I sponged it with Melon Mambo.
