The Paper Players: Negative Space...


Hey,

So today is the first full day of my Godson's trip to NYC.

I have a fun day planned for us..sadly it's a bit rainy here in NYC, but still humid as hell!

I was lucky enough to make 'The cut above' over at The Paper Players last week and as I will be in the UK for 2 weeks and unable to play along with challenges, I wanted to do this one, as my last one for a while.


I love using negative space on my cards, it's a great way to get two-for-one from your die-cuts.

One of my favourite sets to do this with is Concord & 9th's 'Give Thanks'.

I die-cut the corn?! out of a piece of textured tan cardstock and heat embossed half of the sentiment (by Hero Arts) onto the panel.

I mounted this onto my card using foam tape.

I added a die-cut thanks by Lawn Fawn.

I love the simple elegance of this card and as I have decided to sofa surf when I am in London, it will be the perfect way to say thank you to one of my hosts.

  2. Great card, Claire! I like the way you've kept the colours so simple and almost rustic. The die is a good one to use - so pretty. Thanks for joining us again at The Paper Players.
