Today's card is really dimensional and full of whimsy (at least I think it is). I created a very simple design by die cutting a large heart out of holographic red fireworks card and gluing decorative plastic buttons on it. I found them at Hobby Lobby. Usually I don't go for this kind of decoration but these were just too colorful to resist!
The matted papers are gold glitter card and a very special paper from Graphic Products Corp called
Iridescent Paper and comes from Taiwan. (Check out their Italian Florentine Papers.)
I've been a big fan of GPC for many years. They are not well known to us but they have some lovely papers, many are handmade. If you do decide to purchase anything, be sure to check the paper size. Many of their products are sold as "parent sheets" which are the really big sizes...on the other hand you get a whole lot for 1.70.
I hope you enjoyed today's card and browsing through GPC. One of my goals is to bring new finds your way as I come across them. I'm always exploring and sampling, looking for new exciting materials to use in my cards.
(I wanted to let you know that I don't get anything from the companies I mention other than Frantic Stamper as a Design Team member. I just thought it would be nice to pass along great information to others who like the kinds of things I like.)
Thanks for stopping by!
