Celebrate!



Hello! Today I am featuring new designer paper from Fusion Fashion Flair. It's a new line of product by Studio 313 and McMahon Five. The Digital Designer Paper that I used in my card is called "Fall Color Collage", and the sentiment is from 'Peony Sentiments'.

Originally I planned on making a one layer card. I just wanted the beautiful paper to be the focus. But no matter what I did, it just looked too plain for my taste. I just love layers! So I decided to create different layers, using the same designer paper and just layer them on top of each other. I simply printed the paper twice, then cut out the small panel on the right and mounted in up on dimensionals. I then hand cut the butterfly in the top right corner and mounted that up also. I love the way it turned out! Ribbon and pearls were added for embellishment, and wa-la, my card was done! I thought it was the perfect solution to making a single designer paper more interesting and also to show off the pretty paper!

Be sure to check out my fellow designers posts; they are listed in my sidebar. You can see the rest of this week's new releases at the McMahon Five Designs Blog.

Have a great day! Amy
