TCC #26 and FMS #169

I think I'm getting back in the groove.  I had some crafting time yesterday and ideas kept jumping into my brain.  If I don't get distracted by something else, which could easily happen ;-),  I should be able to get a few more done to post every day this week.  This card is for The Card Concept's first anniversary.


I'm not sure about the style of this card.  I thought it was clean and layered until I just re-read that description.  I don't have much "white" space.  I suppose it could be free style collage since there are a number of different elements. If it doesn't qualify, it's okay.  I'm still wishing this innovative challenge and it's creator, Lesley Croghan, a Happy Anniversary.


And besides, all is not lost because it does fit with this week's Freshly Made Sketches.  Sort of.


I did a square shape because I just HAD to break out my newly-arrived-Friday SSS Stitched Squares. A little stamp from Penny Black colored with Distress Inks, and a Hero Arts sentiment embossed on vellum, all foam mounted on some SSS paper and it's done.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you have a wonderful week.

I love the background as it is unexpected and gives the card an edgier feel than regular pinstripe! Lovely!!

This is so pretty! The stripey background looks fabulous behind those beautiful flowers. I would definitely call this clean and layered :) Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.

So supremely pretty, Bobby ... reminds me of a lovely summery garden room ... beautifully coloured roses blooming against those fabulous stripes! Anita :)
