Beyond the Horizon with Quick Quotes

Happy Saturday to you!

I'm up over on the Quick Quotes blog today.  I created a card to share that I've used the pattern paper sentiment as part of my overall design. Do you ever do this?

In honor of Mother's Day I really wanted to create a card that would be suitable for Mom on her special day or serve another purpose as well. 

I started with the Baggage Claim 100 paper, then cut the "Beyond the Horizon" sentiment from it. I added a few hearts and doily behind it, then finished with the banner backing for the "Love You" sticker in the Sheer Joy collection.

I was so excited to work with the fabulous products from our friends at Petaloo!  We received beautiful florals, trim and brads to work with.  Here I've paired it with the brand new collection called "Sheer Joy" from Quick Quotes to create a Father's Day gift for my kids to give to their Dad.

I created the base shadow box frame from white cardstock with my Silhouette.  The Petaloo Fancy Trims in Shades of Teal were used for the hanger.

Once I had my design idea figured out, the fun part was layering in the Petaloo elements onto the shadowbox. I touched a bit of Blue Lagoon onto my Ivory Mixed Textured Layers and put together with a green pearl brad in the right bottom corner.

I added a few pretty die cuts to accentuate the depth of the shadowbox and I loved the character and texture that the burlap and textures from Petaloo added to my project!
