The Tartan

A card using a couple of techniques from the Online Card Classes.
Sue-McRae-P1150242
It was really fun to stamp a tartan design with a bunch of colours and see the outcome.  Not all colours combine to make a good tartan though, so it's best to experiment on some scrap paper first.

This is one of those cards that looks better in real life than in the photo. The yellow paper photographed a little too bright so it's hard to see the white lattice pattern stamped on it.

I'm entering this card over at the Simon Says Have A Heart Challenge.  There's still lots of time to play along with this challenge.

Thanks for visiting today!
