Old pretty paper

 


I came across this sheet of paper, which I have never used, because I didn't know what to do with it! I wondered if it would work with the Made To Surprise Die Set 5in x 7in Side Panel Showstopper Mechanism Set. The paper is probably 20+ years old, so nothing to lose. I cut it out and I think it works.

Whilst I was at it I dug out a box of chipboards designed by Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen for Trimcraft many years ago. It was a bargain at £1, but I have never used any of it! I put it on the centre panel and then used a TL die for the sentiment cut with a Lisa Horton die and Memory box heart die cut from gold card.


I'm entering this into the challenge at Love Those Pretty Papers Anything Goes with optional theme Birthday.

It certainly works Lynn, it's such a lovely paper, with a great fold too. The chipboard piece is a perfect detail for the paper. x

I remember LLB releasing some crafty goodies all those years ago, the Baroque style lends itself to that sheet of DP very well, nice shape as well.

This lovely card just goes to prove why we should never throw anything out - this has all come together beautifully. Quite satisfying to use items which have been 'in storage' for some years 😉
