Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! Greetings! Today's card took me about 40 minutes to make and features 3 patterned designs from the Mint Berry paper pad that I'm intending to bash in 2022. Previous cards made with MB designs have been love/Valentine's theme but I'm needing to take time for sympathy and get well cards before I create more for V-Day.
The base cardstock is actually a pale peach from a multicolor pack from Astrobrights/Neenah. So the border sticker was picked because it has an orange posy in its repeat and I had the deep orange glitter posy stick-on to give more orange to this mostly gray and sage green card. I know the posies don't match the Queen Anne's Lace on the patterned cardstock but they were picked for their colors rather than their shape/type. :)

More design notes:
1. Mint Berry paper pad is from The Paper Studio circa 2016. I purchased at end of 2017 or start of 2018. The 20 designs x 4 each of the original 80 sheets are horizontal formatted and are about 4.25" x 6.25". About 7-10 days ago, I decided to make this my personal crafting challenge for 2022 to try to use it all up. (63 full sheets + 3 scraps and I'm now to about 59 sheets)
a. Queen Anne's Lace
b. sage green with white tally marks
c. charcoal gray with white x's
2. sage green solid color cardstock scrap is from Pen + Gear
3. black inked edge and stamping made with other stash supplies
4. embellishments have been in my supplies for awhile too...good to get these used
