All My Ducks in a Row

Hi.  Kim from Katydid Cards here with a card made using the adorable Duck Brads.

I have several cards in mind using these, but the idea for this card just made me smile so, of course, I made it first!  I started with the digital patterned paper and matched it with Tangerine Tango and Bashful Blue cardstocks by Stampin' Up.  If you like them, get them while they are still available...they are deeply discounted now. 

I wanted to give the plaid a bit of dimension, so I scored it on all the orange lines...it was subtle, but it did the job.  Then I sponged the edges of the plaid panel before attaching it to a larger mat.  The panel with the ducks looked a bit too plain, so I embossed that with the Argyle embossing folder.

Looks like your ho-hum average card, but upon closer look, you see the panel with the ducks is actually a flap which opens to say this:

And the statement continues on the inside.  Sad but true.

That wraps it up except to mention I added some yellow and white Baker's Twine to the end of the tab.
