Today's card was really fun to make. I was in a "Whole Page" Swap this summer where you received a whole page of a specific stamp set. One of these stamp sets was "Have a Seat". I always liked this set but could not think of what to put with it for a background. This weekend I was sorting through some Yard Sale items and saw a wicker place mat . Well that gave me the idea that I could take it apart and use my SU Hemp Twine to weave it back together myself so I gave it a go. Here is the card I created.
Ink- Early Espresso Rose Red, More Mustard and Crumb Cake.
Card Stock - Very Vanilla, scrap from 6x6 DSP Pack Rose Red, Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler.
Embellishments- Antique Brad, small antique brads, Victorian Lace Ribbon , Jumbo Eyelet and Hemp Twine.
Stamp Set- Have a Seat, Plane and Simple and Sense of Time.
Punch- Modern Label
Misc. Wood place mat, and a Distressing kit.
That's it for today. I love being able to create fun new out of the ordinary cards.
Now it is your turn to go and create something fun.

Patrice, what an imagination, and what talent to combine an old wicker mat with a stamp set. The result is gorgeous!
Great use of "other materials".. very nicely put tog!!
You are so imaginitive. Sorry I have been MIA from looking. I haven't been looking at a lot of blogs lately. I am just too busy at home and work. Don't they know I have things to look at when I am at work?
