Shopping Our Stash #399 - The Dreaded ONE LAYER CARD


Greetings & salutations crafty pals!

Thanks for stopping by to check out the latest challenge from the crew at SHOPPING OUR STASH.

Yours truly is the host this week and for some reason I picked the dreaded  ONE LAYER CARD as our theme

I struggle making one layer cards, but if you check out the SHOPPING OUR STASH BLOG you will see exactly how it's done by my crewmates!

So here's what I made:
(warning this post is about to get picture heavy)



Not bad right?

I made the background by inking up a stamp block and spritzing it with water then pressing it on the paper, once, twice, maybe a few more...

Then easy peasy lemon squeezy I added the image and sentiment in black.

I was SO impressed with myself for making a one layer card that I kinda liked, that I made six more   LOL

Here they come:

Shite I used to make these cards:

  • White cardstock (Fireworx)
  • Clear stamping block (SU)
  • Candied Apple, Peacock Feathers, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Wilted Violet, Spiced Marmalade, Picked Raspberry & Black Soot distress inks (Tim Holtz)
  • We Totally Click, Green Acres, Slang Gang and Chubby Chums stamp sets (Paper Smooches)
As always we would love for you to join our crew and play along!!
