Make it Monday #333 Layering Patterns over Images

The challenge this week is to lay an open pattern over a stamped image.  The real challenge for me was to find a suitable pattern from Papertrey Ink.  In fact, I could not.  The closest I could come is a grid pattern from a borders set.  I knew that trying to stamp a 1/2 inch wide border stamp repeatedly over a layered image is a recipe for disaster.  As it was, I threw three potential cards in the garbage due to my paper shifting slightly in my Misti.  In the end, I liked the result using the Succulents Stamp set from Papertrey Ink and a “shattered” background stamp from my stash.  Nuvo drops in three colours finished off the project.

  1. I like what you have done. I might see if I have anything in my stash I could do something similar with. Thank you for sharing.

  2. Good for you for persevering. The shattered background over the succulents gives a really cool result, almost like stained glass. Great card!
