I took the vertical lines of the photo and the black and white, but I am not an orange fan (except when it comes to football - go Broncos!!!) So I decided to play along with two "splash" of color challenges that are active this week - Simon Says Stamp and Less Is More.
True confession - that wonderful button/twine treatment is not my creation. I saw this card and immediately ordered a supply of the buttons so I could do exactly the same thing!!
The layout of my card comes from this week's sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.
Also - the huge give-away over at The Alley Way Stamps is still going on. There are prizes every single day!! Be sure to click over...but be careful. I won a prize from them just six months ago and now I am on their design team and totally hooked on the style!!
- Stamps: The Alley Way Stamps Sittin' Pretty
- Paper: black and white
- Ink: Memento Black and Copics
- Accessories: Ranger Glossy Accents, Martha Stewart Fine Crystal Glitter, Close To My Heart Bitty Sparklers (the bling), Papertrey Ink Orange Zest Twill Ribbon, Hobby Lobby brand black and white ribbon, Stampin' Up Embossing folder. Whew!! I am definitely an equal opportunity user on this card - check out all of the brands!!
