Stampin' Up! occasions catalogue card swap featuring Geared Up Garage bundle

To mark the beginning of the new occasions catalogue I joined with 8 fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators and we each made 9 cards and traded designed for our displays to share with customers and our teams. Here's my card:

 
I used one of my favourite techniques for the background which is similar to faux silk. I used the brown paper that comes with our Stampin' Up! orders and a glue stick and made a textured background. Isn't the texture it creates amazing? You can create a similar texture by using a brown paper lunch bag. Just make sure you scrunch it up into a ball first and flatten it out before adhering it to cardstock.
