The current challenge from Less Is More is to make a one layer card...just one!! And they asked for the sentiment to be the focal point. I just couldn't resist pulling out the stamp set from Verve...the size alone makes it perfect for this challenge. I also decided to use the color combo from the Color Throwdown Challenge. While I was playing I decided to dress it up a little and create another card that was layered up a bit. I tried out the stamp and twist technique (ink your stamp...press on paper...twist in a complete circle) to create my background...almost looks like a smudged accident but the Wisteria Wonder ink was twisted intentionally. Either one of these cards will work for the As You See It challenge as well...fill in the blank. "When I think of simple, I think of plain ole ink & card stock!"Materials used: Wisteria Wonder, Basic Gray, and Calypso Coral ink...Verve stamp...on 2nd card Wisteria Wonder Basic Gray and Calypso Coral card stock
3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts) 3 gift white...Fluffy clouds...our sandy beaches here in the Panhandle...popcorn!!
I like your splattery, grungy stamped background. It makes a great backdrop for your sentiment. Thanks for joining us again at As You See It Challenge.
