Christie Bryant Strikes Again. Plus a Special Surprise!
Greetings all! Christie Bryant one of our fabulous design team members strikes again, this time with two great card ideas. With card season upon us, (Mother's Day, Graduation, Father's Day, Weddings, and Birthdays) I thought it was perfect time for some inspiration.
Here is what Christie has to say: "Sometimes thoughtful, handmade cards can come together really fast. I used Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist & Glimmer Screens along with Graphic 45 Times Nouveau paper to put this card together in less than five minutes (one of my fastest projects yet). I was happy with how quick and easy it was to use the Glimmer Mist Products, they're a perfect addition to any Graphic 45 project."
Products used to make this card:
- Ivory cardstock
- Ivory Ribbon
- Graphic 45- Times Nouveau "Sitting Pretty"
- Tattered Angels- Glimmer Screens "Timeless Romance"
- Tattered Angels- Glimmer Mist "Burnt Red"
- Chalk
"It is easy to throw a pretty card together in no time, especially when you use Graphic 45 paper. One of my favorite lines is the Times Nouveau, I tend to use it a lot for cards because it's so versatile.
Recently I challenged myself to use leftover scraps of paper and embellishments sitting on my desk after putting a project together.
Using my leftover Graphic 45 paper and my new TOMBOW products, I came up with this little ditty."
Products used to make this card:
- Ivory cardstock
