Card Chain Swap

 Morning and I have three posts today the third  and last one is for the Card Chain Swap Reveal and 31 cards were exchanged,my card went to Patricia and in the USA.I went with the themes stencil and scoring.The stamp and sentiment are from AALL&Create I stamped the leaf and flower heads again coloured with promarkers and paper pieced.Stencils from  (will have to update later as cat is asleep on my stamps and stencils box lol.-Stencil Girl and  Creative Expressions and one I cannot remember,border stamp from Crafters Companion.

I scored the edges with a Crafts Beautiful scoreboard which was a craft mag freebie years ago.

It's beautiful, I just love that background xx

Lisa said...

Your use of stencils and scoring creates such a lovely, textured background that perfectly complements the AALL&Create stamps and sentiment. The added details of paper piecing with Promarkers and the scored edges really make this card stand out beautifully—it's delightful how even your cat gets involved in your crafting process!
