Day 3 of Hero Arts + BasicGrey Week!

hero_bg_500

Hi! It’s Kelly here and I want to welcome you back to Hero Arts & BasicGrey week! Today’s cards are all about the Little Black Dress collection. And I know it’s Wednesday, which usually means a video, but since we don’t have one we decided to make it up to you and have a bonus two-card day! Double the inspiration! :)

First up, I created this card using a bunch of the patterned papers from the Little Black Dress 6×6 Paper Pad.  I love the small prints…they are perfect for cardmaking! I topped each square off with a different embellishment, including stamps, rub-ons, stickers and buttons all from this collection. Also, I got the inspiration for the design of the card from one of the sketches included in this month’s challenge.

Here’s a closer peek showing off all those gorgeous embellishments:

Next up I have a card to share from the sweet and talented Sally Traidman. Here’s what she has to say about her card:

I love all the new neutral papers from the Little Black Dress 6×6 Paper Pad. My daughter-in-law got me hooked on the color gray several years ago and now it has really become “in”. My card is a combination of beige and gray (graige? LOL!) using CG380 Large Flower Pattern for the background, and the elegant “Thanks” from CG381 Special Lace. The coordinating BasicGrey chipboard pieces combine wonderfully with our Art Flowers and Dots for my card embellishment. And of course I had to add a touch of fabric - tulle this time - you know I can’t resist!

    These cards are gorgeous and so is that new line of paper. I just love black and white and I love that first card especially. Kind of reminds me of the Jennifers Inspiration Showcase class, but instead of using heart shapes you have used squares. Great design.
