Corset Collage Card, French and Asian Fusion

  I start each project with selecting my stamp. Then, I choose my color scheme for the papers. For this 5.5" x 5.5" (13,9 cm x 13,9 cm) card, I choose a beige, cream, and red mahogany scheme.  I start by cutting cream-white, glittery cardstock to 11" and folding it in half.  I wanted to create a romantic feel so I choose the Corset Collage Rubber Stamp as the focus.  The photo print of a vintage girl (unknown) is printed on glossy photo paper and is quite small in size, 1.5" x 2" (3,8 cm x 5 cm). Additional papers used are a brown/beige textured paper, red shiny cardstock, matte red paper (printed with a distressed pattern and featuring script), and beige paper (featuring Asian character print that surprisingly matched beautifully).  Both printed papers are from an Asian themed 12 x 12 stack. The French toile paper is cream/yellow and the die cut lattice paper is a red matte textured cardstock. Hence, the Asian and French fusion!

So THANK YOU FOR whoever drew the "Old FRIENDS" clingstamp. I absolutely love it! Perhaps a lot more than other customers because I work with Senior Citizens / the elderly community. Thank you for the design of the stamp and making them available. I really do love it! Ivette C. from North Syracuse, New York To make this 5" x 7"card, Roni begins with black, textured cardstock as the base. She then makes a red matte and a white matte.  She uses textured paper for all of the mattes and smooth paper for the white. Roni then stamps the 'Old and New Friends' rubber stamp on the large white card matte near the bottom (text stamp measuring 3.1" wide x 1
