Maryanne's dimonds.




Fabulous fabulous fabulous example of how you can make diamonds work so well for your pages. Another great example - see what an array of diamonds we have had! Stamps, paper, shaped pp, stickers, rubons, decorative edges!








Also note how Maryanne has maybe deliberately or possibly accidently used a technique called 'mimicking' where as the patterned paper looks like a snakes skin................








(this is a very loose and abstract 'Amanda' interpretation of that technique. A more direct way would be if there were snakes on the paper i guess! LOL)








Whatever the case this is great. That orange is so striking and omg i just love love LOVE that sassafras lass little strip along the bottom. I just *have* to have that paper now Mary!

great LO. I do like how you kept the chip undressed so as to tone the page down a bit. Works a treat.

amanda youre so right with the mimicking pattern.Had been looking for the right pp for the snake pics, and knew this was the right one straightaway,the pattern, color and everything was just right. AND it was perfect for the diamond challenge also.
