The base of this card is card stock with a texture stamp in mustard and olive colored ink. I didn’t really like it and thought about tossing it. But I happened to come across some scraps of other paper I used in other cards and got to playing with the arrangement. It absorbed me, and I finally found a use for the random, stray puzzle piece that’s been sitting on my desk for months.


I love when I have a piece that I don’t like that suddenly comes together. I really like the contrast of the beads on the fluffy fibery paper.
I think you found a perfect place for the puzzle piece, I love the colors and textures of this.
