If there’s a stamp set featuring books, I can guarantee I’ll purchase it. The stamp set featured on today’s card is one of those sets that had to belong in my collection. It’s Sugar Pea Designs, Beautiful Books. Books and reading are right up there with stamping and paper crafts as favorite pastimes for me. The only difference is that I’ve been reading and collecting books a lot longer than I’ve been stamping.
This is one of those cards that can be used for just about any occasion. I’m sending this “hello” note to another book loving friend. There are so many cute little stamp images in this set but I’m completely smitten with the glasses and the simple bookmark.
The card design was inspired by the As You See It Challenge #266 . I don’t think I’ve ever made a card with this type of diagonal design and now that I have, I have so many more ideas…thank you, LeAnne!
Thanks for taking the time to look in on my project. I hope your week is off to a good start!
Take care,
Rosanne
You did it again… Another fun, beautiful and classic card from you! I will say that I adore sugar pea designs but at the same time it’s a company that I forget to look up but not after seeing this card!
Beautiful layout and I will admit… When I see books I do think of you! Hope you had a great day and thanks for the inspiration
Love this card and your creativity. Thank for sharing!
I am absolutely in love with your card! I am an avid reader and I am going to have to buy these stamps! I love the pattern paper that you picked and the colors are all spot on! I must agree – there are many sweet stamps in this set and you have chosen well! Thanks for playing along with us at As You See It!
Welcome to As You See It Challenges, Rosanne! That’s the perfect image for your focal point and I love the vintage look of your background papers! Thanks for creating on the diagonal with us at As You See It Challenges!
Love, love this. I love to read and y best friend was an archivist librarian so we are always sending each other book marks and book related stuff. This will be a perfect card for e to CASE. Well, off to check out that company again to see what else I need. Thanks for a wonderful card!!!
Roseanne, I love this! What a great stamp set! I’d be all over this one myself, lol, and how perfectly it translates to our sketch! Your paper choices go SO well with the reading theme, too! That tiny bookmark is amazing, lol. Thanks so much for playing at As You See It!
I love your card and couldn’t agree more with you on loving both books and papercraft. The teacher-librarian in me can’t get enough of book stamps either but I’ve not seen this one before. The papers are fabulous and your focal cluster is balanced and beautiful. Thank you for joining in with us at As You See It Challenge.
I LOVE this! I love to read, too, and I love the vintage feel you’ve created with these stamps and papers! Just lovely! Glad you liked my sketch and I hope you’ll have fun playing with it again! Thanks for playing with us at As You See It this week with this sweet creation!
