Be Brave

I made this card for a challenge over at My Unity Place.  The challenge was to make a One Layer card.  Whoa was that difficult!  I think I can count on one hand the number of 1 layered cards I've made in my life!  I used She Sprouted Wings and the November KOM for this card.  I stamped the background image with brilliance ink so it has a beautiful shimmer that is difficult to see in the photo.  The woman and butterflies are embossed and I inked the edges of the cardstock.  Thanks for stopping by my blog!

    Thanks for your comment on my blog! I wanted to answer your question about the paper...it is from a 6x6 stack by Echo Park called Summer Days. And...I think you can still get Elegant Edges from Joanns online for $29.99 - which is better than what I paid for it! That is where I got Kate's ABC's as well! Have fun!
