I love Wednesdays. Time to visit Simplicity and see what Susan has in store. This week's OLW is overlapping. Create a one layer card and overlap the image and sentiment.
I had a lot of ideas and decided to use Hero Arts' Traditional Butterfly. Thankfully, the sentiment is a clear stamp, because I knew that I wanted to curve the sentiment to mimic the butterfly's movement.
I had two more cards but felt they weren't "publish worthy". This one was my fave and I'm sure I'll use this design again, if ever I need a quick all occasion card.
Visit Susan's blog and give her one layer challenges a try. Next to a glass of wine, it's a great way to decompress after a week of coloring, layering, trimming, embellishing....
Stamps: Hero Arts
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Memento Cantaloupe
Cardstock: Georgia Pacific
Other: corner rounder
Very pretty card, Donna and I love the curved sentiment...it really does add movement! Too cool!
