I seem to be on a roll with the cards this week, although now I've said that, the mojo will go flying out the window....
Just managed to sneak in a card for the
WMS sketch challenge which looks like this:
I feel as though my cards have all been very clean and simple recently so I used about 15 layers on this one (ok - slight exaggeration). Whoever receives it probably won't be able to stand it up as it's so heavy! There's a layer of cork paper at the bottom that I found in my local craft store last week, followed by a layer of denim. I really wanted to use the denim as the base but it just wasn't happening so I covered that in a layer of Basic Grey and just left the frayed edges showing. I used cork paper as my base for the stamp which is from the Very Vintage Labels 1 set. I've also added a sentiment from Fancy Phrases.
Hope you're getting crafty! See you at the Blog Party and thanks for stopping by,
