I had to do a wee bit of research, 'cuz I wasn't exactly sure of the details.
Gras = French for "Fat"
Mardi = French for "Tuesday"
The colors of Mardi Gras are purple (symbolizing justice), green (representing faith), and gold (power).
So, ladies and gents, I bring you. . . some fun Mardi Gras cards. Cuz I hear they celebrate with tons of music and silliness. I was inspired by the "All that Jazz" collection because of its festive music theme. What's remarkable about the images from this set is that they were all hand drawn and edited by our extremely talented Club Scrap designer, Jacqueline. She's amazing. Like, you have NO idea how amazing.
Cutaparts: All That Jazz
Unmounted Stamp: Full Circle Club Stamp
Paper: Tilescapes, Raku, Dream in Color
Cards are 5.5x8.5 folded in half, panels measure 4x5.25, and most cutouts were trimmed to 3.25x4.25 and matted with 3.5x4.5.

... Thanks for the inspiration Tricia. I love All That Jazz, and now I have other ideas on how to use the kit. |

... VERY FUN! It looks like you used different colors of ink when you stamped. Did you use markers or ink pads? What colors? |

... I used the printed cutouts from All That Jazz, just as they are!  The only stamping I added was the silly quote from Full Circle. |
