New Travel Collection from Marah Johnson

Hi guys! Nicole here again with a sneak peek of Marah Johnson's new collection Old World Collection, a gorgeous line designed for scrapping all your favorite travel photos!

For this layout I combined Marah's beautiful paper and embellishments with some of our kraft colored corrugated cardstock (photo mats), a perfect match with a texture that lends itself well to the feel of bumpy roads and rolling hills.

Supplies Used:

• Marah Johnson's paper collection
• Corrugated Kraft Paper
• Smoked Topaz Eye Candy

 

I just loved the quote on this sticker so much I used it as the sentiment on the front of this friendship card.  Combined with a twill bow and a small bag to slip a personal message tag into, I think it makes a really cute greeting for a special friend!

Thanks for stopping by and keep checking out the sneak peeks throughout the week!

Card inspiration by Patty Lennon!

Design team member, Patty Lennon created some amazing cards this past month with some of your favorite collections!  Patty shared a bit about her inspiration behind the creation....

"Do you ever have one of those days where you feel like crafting but you're not exactly sure what you want to make?  Just the other day, I had one of those days.  I decided to break out little bits and pieces and leftover supplies from pages and projects that I had saved.  Cards were now on my agenda!  Cards are always fun because they can be made in a relatively short period of time.  You can alter the look from card to card and at some point in time, you will always need them!

So the next time you have a little bit of free time on your hands, grab those scraps and see what you can come up with.  Please be sure to share your creations . . . we'd love to see them." ~ Patty Lennon
