Well, this is the third time I’ve tried to post this card! I keep getting an error message before it saves and it is wiping out everything I’ve already typed in! Ugh! So…trying one more time to post my card!
I decided to use a color scheme of Basic Black, Whisper White and Sahara Sand. Very elegant! I cut a scallop circle with the large Scallop Circle die, then stamped the large flower with Basic Black and the small flower with Sahara Sand. I layered it on Basic Black and then the base card of Sahara Sand. I added a strip of Sahara Sand over top and tied it with some White Taffeta Ribbon. The greeting is stamped in Basic Black on Whisper White and layered on Basic Black and Sahara Sand, too! I added a couple 1/4 Whisper White circles to the upper left to balance out the card.
If this looks semi-familiar, it is because this card was the inspiration for the card I posted the other day with Baja Breeze and Sahara Sand! I finished this one earlier in the week and was saving it for today!
Hope you have a great weekend! It is supposed to warm up around here, finally! I’d love to see this snow go away!
