Today I’m sharing a card showcasing the Taylored Expressions Summer Nights Paper Pack.
The patterned papers feature a red/white/blue color scheme perfect for summer projects, patriotic or otherwise. My card celebrates a variety of summer activities!
Red/white/blue is one of my favorite color schemes, no matter what the season, but most especially in the summer months. I used one of the square dies in the Stitched Square Stacklets set to cut out the patterned paper squares (I clearly like the star theme!) to create a patchwork background. For the embellishments, I cut Little Bits – Firework, Little Bits – Ice Cream Cone, Little Bits – Flip Flops and Little Bits – Popsicles from TE solid cardstock in coordinating colors (Cherry Pop, Sugar Cube, Blue Corn and Toffee) and placed them on the squares with foam adhesive. One of my favorite things about the TE patterned paper packs is that they coordinate perfectly with the TE cardstock colors!
I added a sentiment from the Little Bits of Summer set, which I stamped with my MISTI – Precision Stamping Tool (the set contains a number of words that can be put together for different summer-themed sentiments).
And there it is – a quick-to-put-together, summer-themed card with a lot of pattern and color and not a lot of fuss!
Supplies:
