Creating with Patterned Paper

Do you feel like sometimes you don’t have an artistic bone in your body? Do you wake up and feel like your creativity leaked out during the night? Create with patterned paper.

Does the thought of even choosing papers that coordinate on your card freak you out and make you want to run and hide?

If you love creating your own background paper designs or love to choose different patterns to go together, go for it! Let your creative side shine.

But, if you are having a day where nothing seems to work together or you can’t get your creative brain lit, take a shortcut. Choose a pack of patterned paper that all coordinates together and make your selections from there.

Card Created with Paper

This card was created with patterns from the Rings pf Love Sale-A-Bration paper. There were several different patterns used including a medallion cut out with the Layering Circles Dies.

One of my favorite things about Stampin’ Up! products is the color coordination. Choosing a pack of DSP and finding cardstock and ink colors used in the Designer Series Paper is a great way to create a gorgeous card even when your creativity has flown the coop.

When all else fails, choose some gorgeous patterned paper and let cthe paper lead your creativity.
