Neat & Tangled Release Day 3: Paris + Graduated Stripes Coverplate





Hello and Welcome to Day Three of the Neat & Tangled March Release!

Haven't you been loving the sneak peeks?  Remember, everything will be available in the Neat & Tangled shop on Friday!

Today we're featuring

Paris + Graduated Stripes Coverplate●


This particular card is chock full of Neat & Tangled goodies:

cardstock:  stampin' up gumball green/baked brown sugar, cosmo cricket just add water, papertrey ink vellum  stamps:  neat & tangled/paris  ink:  stampin' up white embossing powder, various watercolors  other:  neat & tangled/box & tiny triangles nice & neat dies, spellbinders circle, the twinery

I knew that I wanted to use those stacked tea cups and then the card took a life of its own. The Tiny Triangles panel was leftover from the Neat & Tangled collaboration with Cosmo Cricket.  I needed a vessel of some sort to pop the tea bag packaging into and I thought of the Box die!  I had to trim down the sides of the tea bag a smidge to make it work.  I love that the round tag is front and center though...such a sweet image.

Ah yes, today's theme is green...

Bonjour!


cardstock:  papertrey ink vellum, stampin' up gumball green, cherry wood veneer  stamps:  neat & tangled/paris  ink:  memento tuxedo, various copics, stampin' up white embossing powder  other:  neat & tangled/graduated stripes coverplate, stampin' up banner framelit dies

Oh yes, I ADORE that Graduated Stripes Coverplate!  I cut it twice, once with my much hoarded Cherry Wood Veneer paper and then with the Gumball Green cardstock.  I placed the green stripes into the Veneer frame.  I stamped and colored that sweet girl with her fancy Eiffel Tower hat!

Remember, these will be available for purchase on Friday!
