Hey You....


I had seen on a couple of different blogs out there about the CARDS challenge going on! So.... the other night, I decided to make a card for it myself! This is what I came up with!

I got some burlap at Michael's a few days ago! It was a huge roll for about $3. I decided to try and use my Sizzix Flower Layers Die with the burlap. It didn't turn out the way I had hoped.... more like it turned out how I had expected! But instead of scrapping the idea... I thought I would just add it on top of a cardstock layer! I like the look pretty well!

Anywho... That's all for me today! I hope you guys have a wonderful Thursday!

Thanks for all the great responses about the new challenge we posted yesterday! I hope you all get time to participate! I am curious to see your ideas!!

Peace and Love!!

Supplies:
Stamps - Background Basics Retro (PTI)

I love the ruggedness of the flower. Even worn and tattered looking can be pretty!
