Hello, Bonjour!

Bonjour! The card I'm sharing today was made years ago, but very recently I added some sequins to give it a little facelift. :-)


This card must hail from my Splitcoaststampers days, before I had a blog. I thought it had already been posted here (pre-sequins), but no.

Believe it or not, there is not one shred of patterned paper on here: it's all stamping. Check out the close-up shot below:


Though I don't rely on it so much anymore, the technique of layering stamps is my favorite. But with oodles of patterned paper stacks, and less free time than before, I don't do this as often as I used to.

Thanks so much for coming by today! :-D

I still have all my background stamps. Now it seems coloring takes up all my time. This is really beautiful, Colleen.
