🌍 Wanderlust Found: Ina’s Vintage Voyage with Our New Collage Paper 📜✨

Are you ready to add a touch of travel, history, and "urban grunge" to your art? 🏗️ Ina has been exploring our brand new Wanderlust Wayside collage paper pack, and she has created a spectacular trio of cards that prove just how far these textures can take your creativity! 🎨 From intricate, multi-stamp interiors to dimensional die-cut frames, these papers are the perfect passport to inspiration. ✈️🗺️

Here’s a look at Ina’s vintage adventures:

The Journey to Paris & Stamped Surprise 🕰️🌸

Ina’s first card features a stunning sheet from the Wanderlust Wayside pack, dominated by the image of a vintage woman facing a collage of the Eiffel tower, map, butterfly, and vintage clock face. 🕰️ She kept the front relatively clean to showcase the pattern, adding a delicate sentiment from the Bloomful stamp set.


But the real "wanderlust" is inside! Surprise! Opening the card reveals a complex, "all-over" mixed-media masterpiece. 🏗️ Ina used a master mix of Dare Subway Art Builders (retired), Mixed Media Grunge, Mixed Media Elements, Scribbly Splattery Grunge, and Art Marks to create a rich, layered texture that feels like a travel-worn passport. 🖋️

The Framed Gentleman 🕵️‍♂️🧵

For her second card, Ina took that same powerful 5-stamp mixed-media mix and used it to stamp directly onto the card front to create a textured border. 🏗️ She then used the stitched nesting dies to create a clean, dimensional frame. The focal point is a sophisticated hand-cut gentleman, taken from one of the Wanderlust Wayside sheets and popped onto the frame with foam tape for incredible height. 📏 He is finished off with an uplifting sentiment. 🦋✨


Making Memories with Basic Panels 📸📏
Ina's final card is a study in structural, layered design. She used the basic A2 panels nesting dies to cut three distinct panels, creating a "card-on-card" dimensional look. 🏗️ This layout perfectly frames the rich textures of the collage paper. The simple, powerful phrase "make memories" anchors the theme of travel and nostalgia. 🗺️🙌
