More K&Company

Well, I just checked with UPS and my new goodies are "Out For Delivery"! So hopefully I'll be able to play with them and create some new blog pics very soon!! Until then...more yummy projects with this gorgeous K&Company paper.

I used the photo mat pack for the background of this card. The main image is another bella from Stamping Bella. This one, Causeabella, can be used for so may different "ribbon" organizations and causes. I made this card for a brave, fellow stamper that is fighting a recent diagnosis of breast cancer. I just wanted her to know that there are many of us out here cheering her on!

I'm lovin' patterned paper!

Here lately, it seems as if I can't create a card without using patterned paper!!! I'm lovin' the stuff!

While I am (not so) patiently awaiting the arrival of some new SU! goodies, I've pulled out some of my impulse buys from the local craft store. I found this GORGEOUS paper by K&Company. It comes in a little mat pack, which according to the front cover is perfect for matting 4x6 pictures. But I immediately thought that it would be perfect (with some minor trimming) for cardfront backgrounds. The colors are pretty similar to some of Stampin' Up!'s colors, which is another reason I just had to have it! Not to mention it was on sale. Can you tell I'm trying to ease my guilt from buying a non-SU! product???

Anyway, I paired this cute floral patterned paper with one of my favorite images from Farm Fresh. I love the greeting! This card was sent off to a very dear friend of mine who just so happens to be going through some of the same issues I am. I swear its divine intervention - God knew we both couldn't handle these things alone so we are both trudging through it together. His timing is perfect!
