Patterned Lattice

 Hi everyone!  Another lattice sample for today!  I wanted to see how it looked with decorative papers this time.  I stamped my sentiment then I cut the lattice motif out of some blue patterned paper (I believe these papers are actually Stampin' Up papers from my craft stash) and matted it on a faux nestie of cream card that I made by tracing around the die itself and hand cutting it out.  Use a bit of 400 grit sandpaper to take off any rough spots. using a coordinating decorative paper, I cut some of the Moroccan accents pieces and four corners.  I used the corners to hold hands with the accent piece.  I mounted this atop my lattice motif and mounted the sentiment on the very top.  I used a bit of black soot ink to highlight the sentiment before taking it out of the die too.  Using a piece of cream crocheted ribbon, I wrapped it across the middle of the card over some decorative striped card.  I cut one Moroccan border and cut it into pieces to tuck under my crochet ribbon on both sides.  I made a couple of ribbon roses out of the white silky crush ribbon using my redline tape technique.  I used a piece of white seam binding which I dyed to match my paper with tumbled glass distress ink and a tiny piece of white grosgrain ribbon to make a messy bow base for my flowers.  I put four large half pearls in the corners and filled in the edge between them with pearl PVA glue dots.  I rather like the contrast between the large corners and the small dots myself.  What do you think of the patterned paper look?  All for now, Sue x
