Creating a Collage is a fun way to add patterns and even textures to a card.  Here start with the stamped and Welcome from the Life's Adventure stamp set on the Whisper White card stock.  Color the home in using the coordinating In-Color Stampin' Write Markers.  Frame out from there with the Lullaby Designer Series Paper.  The paper is double sided so you get double the patterns for the same price and they are all color coordinated! 

 

 Add Texture for interest on this card using the *Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine and the Fancy Fan embossing folder.  Cutting a piece and flipping it over for more texture and pattern!  It's so easy to use the Big Shot Machine - my kids 'help me' (child "free labor" - lol) from 18 months on!  They LOVE the Big Shot almost as much as I do.  I love how we can craft together while keeping their little hands busy. 
 

*The Big Shot Die-Cutting/Embossing Machine is a MUST HAVE for all crafters (paper to quilting to artists to teachers and parents).  When you buy a Big Shot during the month of August, you'll receive your choice of one of five FREE exclusive stamp set and Framelits bundles -- that's up to a $55 US value absolutely free!

This stunning collection of In-Colors that were introduced this year has me in bliss... Blackberry Bliss!  Sure - it's a fun play on words but oh so true!  Here the Corner Garden background stamp mimics the Park Lane Designer Series Paper's rich floral paper.  Stamping the Corner Garden rubber stamp on the Hello Honey card stock in the Blackberry Bliss ink for a luxurious color combination.

The Park Lane Designer Series Paper has stunning rich collections of paper.  Cutting out this shape of the flowers is super easy and fun using the Paper Snips!  With precision tips and blade, small enough to get into the nooks and crannies of the patterned flowers and leaves... it creates a stunning image that is perfect to add to this collage.

Stamp this sentiment from the Say Something stamp set on Whisper White card stock using the Blackberry Bliss ink.  The secret to the placement... layer the cut Park Lane page over the Whisper White card stock, before stamping the sentiment.  This way you can perfectly place the saying so that it 'fits' the card.  Add the gold flecked Watercolor Wonder Washi Tape for an additional layer and a pretty golden accent.  Adhere the Park Lane page with SNAIL adhesive over the stamped and washi tape accented Whisper White card stock.

The amazing thing with the Park Lane page is that you can keep cutting and creating different looks.  Here a second card has a different look and the sentiment and washi tape placed to fit this card.  I love the look of this layered and beautiful hand-stamped card.
