You know what they say about "best laid plans". No? Well they oft go awry. My plan to do some quilting today has been offset by an appointment with the attorney and a number of things she needed me to do to prepare for my Dad's Medicaid application. I't a good thing I'm organized. Otherwise I'd be bald by now.
But that's not why you came here. You came to see what I've been playing with in my craft room. This card is for The Card Concept in the clean and layered category..
I was inspired by the roses and the wood box they are in, but I also saw the gray leaves and brown filler so ta da....
I am a little disappointed in my wood. It looked darker after I swiped my embossing folder with HA Soft Brown ink but the ink faded. :( The roses from Penny Black are stamped and sort of watercolored with Worn Lipstick. The brown "things" are from CASual Friday, the leaves from MFT and the sentiment from PB. How's that for mixing up my stamp sets?
ETA: Thanks to Loll, I'm sending this over to Happy Little Stampers for their CAS embossing challenge.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you accomplished all you set out to do today.
