It's finally Saturday again, I hope you all have had a good week. For my post today my theme was patterned papers. I can't be the only one having a big stash of paper that I never remembers to use? On the Winnie & Walter blog you can find 3 more cards that I made for todays post using patterned papers together with Winnie & Walter stamps and cutaways.
I made this card using no stamps at all. And no coloring or inks whatsoever. If you wanted you could mass produce this card in a lot of different patterns to give to someone and it would be super quick, and still it doesn't look plain because of the dimension. I used a cutaway background plate to emboss the pattern in the background, it always looks good. I have used this technique with all kinds of dies, it works perfectly with rectangles for frames but this die is my favourite.
Now hop on over to Winnie & Walter and see my other projects.
So that's it for today. I will be back next week for my last performance as Leading Lady. I hope you will be back then. In the meantime you can take a look at my other Leading Lady posts here in the blog, I will be giving away a gift card to the Winnie & Walter shop to one of the people commenting on any of them during the month. The last post is next Saturday and I will pick a winner the week after on Nov 5. Thank you for all the lovely comments so far, I'm very happy for each and every one.
What stunning cards!! I think my favorite is the card where you used the flowers and cut away behind showing the black and white background. Looks SO COOL!!

I too collect (hoard) pattern paper that seems to multiply in the dark. Thanks for the ideas. The leaf effect die looks like a very versatile product, I am adding it to my wish list.

Wonderful cards. I have been trying to use my patterned paper too even though I never seem to make a dent in it.

I love your card with the die cut out flowers backed with pattern paper. The colored flower finishes it off perfectly!

Great card!! I have a Cricut Explore and recently found Winnie and Walter's shop that sells digital cut files. I have used some of them already. Thank you for sharing many ways how to use their great cut files!! Another question- Did you cut the patterned paper using your electronic die cutting machine?? Thank you, in advance, for answering all of my questions!!

All your cards are fantastic and I especially like the effect of the black and white paper contrasting with the yellow/orange flowers on the second one.

The background texture really pop's the die cut... thanks for the inspiration

Hi Jennifer! Sorry it took a while to get back to you. I have used a regular Big Shot and dies for all of my cards. I do own the Silhouette Cameo and it's a great tool, but since it is a bit time consuming I tend to cut out a bunch of designs at once and use them until I run out and then cut some more. I haven't made any electronic cuts in ages though so I think it's time to dust the Cameo off and get cutting again. :)
