Tui has a great sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches. I was actually missing my Buzz & Bumble paper pack. The funny thing is….Buzz & Bumble was my least favorite paper pack in the new catalog………….but it has quickly grown on me! I just love the colors and how the papers coordinate so well together. Here is the original sketch design-
The narrow strip between my pattern papers is actually the seam off of Burlap Ribbon. No piece of burlap gets thrown away in my craft room. I use single strands for tying bows and threading buttons as well. My obsession with burlap goes along nicely with the Buzz & Bumble papers!
Here is a close up at the products used to create my card:
