The Paper Players: Color
Love the Tartan Maker site. The colors are from the challenge and used SIlhouette to duplicate the plaid square to make this bg. Heat embossed the dots lines to both the bg and tag and then sponged the turquoise to tie the two layers together. Stamped sentiment in the same turquoise. Sprayed the whole thing with silver shimmer.
Tip: Once you download the single square from the Tartan Maker to your Silhouette you can resize it to a 1″ square. Then I like to replicate two times over (ctrl + left arrow)and 3 times down (ctrl + arrow down) and resize that to 5×7. Once printed, that gives me a nice sheet to play with. I find that my printer I need to tell it to print BEST or the colors get muddy.
Oh my gosh, Bonnie! This plaid is gorgeous in the challenge colors! Thank you for sharing the information about the Tartan Maker website…and for sharing this beautiful card with The Paper Players!
