Welcome with Tags to Go

I could barely contain my excitement when I saw this week’s Freshly Made Sketches. My brain immediately began shuffling through the different patterns I could showcase on the simple, two-block design – like an old-school rolodex. Spin, spin, spin. When I couldn’t decide (so many great papers!), I reached for the vibrant and fun On the Go Designer Series Paper to make this card:

FMS 683Fun sketch, huh? Can you blame me for having a hard time choosing my patterns for the two blocks? 🙂 I love the graphic page of blueprint designs (in green) and cut that piece along the line of one of the designs in the pattern. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the On the Go Designer Series Paper, which was introduced as a new Online Exclusives product in March:

I cropped a fun key to add, but it really didn’t need it, so I left it off. Here’s a look at the bundle, which was also launched as an Online Exclusives product in March:

Here’s a closer look at the tag on my card:
