Our throwback set this month holds a special place in my heart. Back in October of 2011, when this set released I was new to stamping. I followed the WPlus9 releases every month but I still hadn't purchased anything. I admit it, I was a stalker :) Until...I won the full October 2011 release. Once I got these stamps in my hands, I was in love. I've been a customer and fan ever since. I still pinch myself that I'm on this awesome team.
Let me introduce to you this month's throwback stamp set is
Fair Isle Backgrounds!
I've been seeing the Fair Isle print pop up a lot lately, so I decided this was a great time to feature Fair Isle Backgrounds. I also wanted to show you that it isn't just for Holiday and Winter cards!
For my first card I paired Fair Isle Backgrounds with a stag to make the
perfect masculine thank you card. These two products are used mostly
during the Winter and holiday season, but look at how perfectly these
products work on a masculine card that can be given any time of year!
My next card uses the Fair Isle Backgrounds just to add a little pattern
and to ground the leaf images. The color palette makes this card versatile for giving any time of year. Fair Isle Backgrounds is a perfect choice
for Fall projects too. Just change out the blues and add orange or red
to give it more of a Fall feel.
