Ladies Diary Card

So I have been attempting to use my scraps, and also get of my my anxiety issues when it comes to using my discontinued Graphic 45 collections.

I have two of the small 6x6 Ladies Diary pads that were available for a short time at Michaels craft stores.

I really adore the image from the title page in the pad, in fact I used it a couple of years ago for an altered canvas.

I made an A2 sized card using some scraps from the 12x12 pad and the image from the 6x6 pad for this lovely card.
I like simple cards that showcase one or two things. In my mind the image speaks for itself.
I also added some scrap jewels and a fabric flower that I had in my stash.

I love making cards because it helps me use up some of my smaller scraps.

For more cards you can check out my Etsy shop, Redcroft.

Thanks for stopping by!

Fear that my art wouldn't hold up to what I had seen created with them, fear that I wouldn't be able to handle the learning curve of oil pastels, fear that I wasn't good enough. What it boils down to is fear of myself and fear of failure more so then the art supply itself. Basically what I’...
