Four in a Row Thank You

I’ve admired this simple background technique before but hadn’t tried it until now…

The “Kraft Noir” 12 x 12 paper pad by The Paper Studio has various glossy back prints on kraft card stock, and I used a sheet from the pad to create this thank you note. (Thanks, Carol, for gifting it to me!)

In addition to the printed kraft, I also used Bazzill Butter Cream and Recollections Matte Gold Foil card stock. The greeting is from the “Borders Abound” stamp set from Stampin’ Up (retired) and was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Simply cut the patterned paper into four 1 x 3 inch strips and arrange them on a 3 1/4 x 4 5/8 inch panel – 1/8 inch apart. (I used Susan Campfield’s measurements and name for the layout.)

I think this technique makes an interesting background panel and is not difficult to do. And it’s always fun to come up with another way to use my beautiful paper!!

Thanks for checking out my card project!
