Paisleys & Posies Global Stampers Challenge

Paisleys & Posies – Global Stampers Challenge

I grew up with Paisley prints being in fashion.   And they are making a big comeback – everywhere I look I see Paisley – paisley pyjamas, paisley tablecloths, blouses and quilt covers.  And I love it all, so I was very excited to see the Paisleys & Posies Stamp Set and the Petals and Paisleys Specialty Designer Series Paper in the new Stampin’ Up! Christmas/Holiday catalogue.

The Global Stampers Design Challenge for this month is Paisleys & Posies featuring Rich Razzleberry, Mint Macaron and Delightful Dijon.

To colour the stamped images, I used our Stampin’ Write Markers and I was really surprised by how smooth they coloured.  I will be using these a lot more in the future – usually I resort to watercolouring or blender pen.

‘Stepped Up’ version Paisleys & Posies

I have to admit that I created the ‘stepped up’ version of this card first.  I needed a special birthday card for a friend.  And then I decided to create another card as I knew I would be giving that card away.  This time I kept it very simple (well, at least very simple for me).  Not sure which card I prefer.  Which one do you like better?  Leave a comment to let me know.
