Clean & Simple 2, Day 8
Laura Bassen was the guest designer in class today. She demonstrated how to make a plaid card with inks. I'd seen a similar technique a few weeks ago and had picked up a stamp set with this in mind. Laura warned us we would need to practice. She was right! This card is my 7th attempt, and it's no where near perfect, but it'll do.

What a fabulous idea to make your paid a corner element like this. Really says Clean & Simple in the best way. Great Card!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, I bet the hardest part was getting those lines straight. Before I read the description, I thought maybe it was washi tape you used. Very impressive!
ReplyDeleteGetting those strips straight would probably make me say bad words. I think it looks pretty perfect, you done good.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Dixie. I really like that you left lots of white. I enjoyed her tutorial - but for me a little bit of plaid goes a long way!
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty perfect to me... I see lots of practicing in my future!
ReplyDeleteDixie, I love your simple, stunning take on the plaid stamping. Very cool card!
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty close to perfect to me! Love the color choices.
ReplyDeletePERFECT? I don't go for perfect. I go for "mostly not crooked". Yours looks pretty perfect to ME, though!
ReplyDeleteLooks perfect to me! I love your take on Laura's plaid technique!
ReplyDeleteoh my 7 tries - but I love how it turned out - super effective
