Notepad Inspired Card
A couple months back I saw some cute notepads at Target, bought them, and forgot about them. :) I found them again and decided to give them to my son's preschool teachers. I really liked the pattern at the top of the notepads, so I used that as the inspiration for my card. I pulled out Polka Dot Basics for the teeny tiny dot in it only to find it has gone missing. :( So I had to search through my stamps. I found another not-quite-as-teeny-tiny dot in PTI's Happy Harlequin, which I bought years ago and never used. I realize I still have hardly used the set, but I can now say that I have used it, so I'm joining in the wonderful Darnell's NBUS Challenge #6. The flowers came from PTI's Graceful Greetings, and I finished it off with a sentiment from PTI's Fresh Floral Wrap-Ups...one of my faves...I always love the fonts Maile chooses for her sets.
Thus is SO very pretty! And wow do those flowers on your card ever match the notebook! Just lovely and I love where your inspiration came from!
ReplyDeletePerfect! What a fantastic coordinating card!!
ReplyDeleteLindsey your tamped flowers match your Target notebook perfectly--wow. Simply fabulous!

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! What a perfect match! And the black twine ties everything together. Love it!

ReplyDeleteSo very pretty, Lindsey ... you've captured the pattern of those sweet notebooks so perfectly in your gorgeous card! Simply lovely ... and you know I'm going to love that French sentiment!! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteLindsey, the pattern you stamped on the card is a dead ringer for the note pad pattern! It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSo you stamped the paper yourself? Gosh I thought it was the paper from target! Love these notepads and you have inspired me to make a few!
ReplyDeleteCrazy how close you got it to the Target Notepad. Nice job Bean!
