Patterned paper card

 


I bought a paper pad from I think The Works a few years ago. I loved all the colours of the papers, especially the paisley patterns. I've picked it up a several times and put it back, not sure what to do with it. So, this was the time I actually made a card!

I took one of the Mandala sheets and as the top of the pad has a tear off line it wasn't possible to get it exactly in the centre of a circle die, but near enough. Then I mounted it onto a die cut using an AALL & Create die. The background is another sheet of the paper pad, but it wasn't big enough. So I cut it into triangles and if you look very hard you might see where they overlap.

The sentiment is from Uniko and I mounted it onto a strip from the background paper. Two sheets used the rest of the pad to go!

I'm entering this into the Love Those Pretty Papers challenge - option circles.

How pretty Lynn, nice to see a mandala design which fits perfectly on the A&C die with just a hint of pattern to draw the eye.
