Paper Craft Crew Inspiration Challenge #367

Good Morning, Stampers!

It was so fun to change things up this week and do 

an inspiration challenge at Paper Creaft Crew!

I really gives you an opportunity to get creative!

The first thing I noticed from the photo was the Bokeh 

background. It is a technique I learned several years ago

that is really simple and fun! 

I started with a piece of 

the Peaceful Poppies designer paper and stamped the

poppies image all along the center of the card using Jet Black Stazon.   

Then I took a piece of white cardstock (it can be scrap)

and punched different size holes - think swiss cheese!

I then layed the white cardstock onto my designer paper

and sponged Whisper White ink. Once all the holes were

sponged, I picked up the cardstock, turned it and repeated

the process. Some holes will overlap - that's okay!

You want the look of depth and layers. Once you are

satisfied with it, you can finish the card any way you like.

I opted for a monogrammed card - they make great gifts!
