VIDEO: QuiltCon Inspired Cards

I was deleting photos from my phone during a kind of boring TV show the other night and I found some of my QuiltCon photos. 

There was this stunning aqua and grey quilt there that I used as inspiration for today's cards - and I think I found her on Etsy - choosing this teal paper pad, a striped paper pad and a gingham paper pad, cut into both quarter inch strips and little chips I dropped into this first design. It was so much fun putting it together. 

The sentiment is from this set. I love the way the dies cut it out. It makes it skinny so the background isn't covered up.


For this one, I took my leftover grey strips and put them on a card front. Then I cut that into little squares and pieced them onto this card. When I was done with that, I used the snowflake die to "quilt" a pattern into it. The sentiment is from the same set.


I did the same with the rest of the teal strips and then die cut that panel into a circle with another sentiment.
