Mix & Match

Thank you for visiting my blog on this Mix & Match blog tour.  Our challenge this time is create something that mixes the spring Occasions catalog with the Annual catalog!  

I chose to use the big bold flower from the Beautiful Day stamp set in the Occasions catalog (page 26) and the sentiment from the Ribbon of Courage stamp set in the Annual catalog (page 96).  

The card base is made of the Thick Very Vanilla cardstock.  I just love the thicker weight for my base, don't you?  The color of the ink and cardstock layer is Fresh Fig.  The awesome coordinating 1/2" Finely Woven Ribbon is from the Annual catalog.  Also found in the Occasions catalog is the very versatile Tailored Tag Punch.  It is a great size for so many sentiments!  I punched one tag from the Fresh Fig cardstock and cut it in half lengthwise and placed one on top and one on the bottom behind the Very Vanilla tag to give a little better definition for the sentiment.  This is such a quick card but very striking in the monochromatic design.  

The inside repeats the flower and included a sentiment from the Beautiful Day stamp set.

Enjoy the rest of the blog tour!  I hope you will get some wonderful ideas from all the fantastic projects.
