farewell wild wasabi...

-

I had to keep todays card simple because my office is simply a disaster area and I just can't stamp properly when it is a mess. I am in the middle of making swaps for convention plus I prepped for a workshop this weekend. I wish I could learn how to create neatly or learn to ignore the mess. But since I need to deal with the mess I made a really quick card today. This card uses the grid technique. Instead of explain how to do it I recommend that you check out this tutorial by Beate Johns, the queen of tutorials.

What I used:
Elegant Cheer stamp set and Paisley background stamp
Wild Wasabi and Whisper White card stock
Wild Wasabi classic ink pad
cutter and score blade
scallop circle punch, 1 3/8" and 1 1/4" circle punches
wild wasabi striped grosgrain ribbon

BEAUTIFUL!!! I love it! I will really miss this color a lot. Don't think I will love Kiwi as much! Awesome design - love the grids!

What a beautiful card!!! It was my 18th anniversary on the 14th & I am in love with Wild Wasabi, how ironic that you made a card using that color. It's sooooo hard to say goodbye to the "In-Colors" as always.
Thank you for sharing your lovely card,
