Autumn Greetings on Mulberry Paper

Hello crafty people!

One day at our crop a friend asked if I

knew what mulberry paper was.

I told her that I did and had some right there

at the crop, pulled some out to show her

and decided that I should make a card using some

of it.

I love using mulberry paper, but often don't think

about it.  I'm glad my friend asked about it.

When you use it, the easiest way to get the 

size you want it to use a paint brush or even your

finger to wet the paper where you want to tear it.  Then

gently pull it to tear.  The fibers in the paper give you

the feathered look along the edges, which I love.

If you don't want that look, you can always just use a paper cutter

to cut it to size.

I stamped the image and sentiment with brown Archival ink

and used Bearly Arts Glue to adhere it to the front of

the card base.

I use ATG tape very often to adhere panels to my card

bases, but mulberry paper just doesn't work with tapes,

the tape just doesn't stick to the paper,

so wet glue is a must.

I love how this card turned out.

Thanks for stopping in today to see what I've been up to.

I hope you will come again soon.

Until then,

give a new supply a try.
